Local knowledge

Brighouse houses & what they need

The older Brighouse terraces near the river and canal take damp at ground level. The plaster on the bottom of the wall is often blown or salt-stained. Once the cause has been dealt with, we cut it out and re-plaster with a system that suits a wall that is still drying.

The inter-war semis up towards Lightcliffe and Hipperholme are a different job. Cavity walls, so less damp, but artex ceilings, cracked coving and decades of patch repairs. A full skim usually works out better than another round of filling.

Brighouse is a short run from Halifax and still well inside our regular patch from Hebden Bridge. Site visits are easy to arrange on the same working day as jobs in Halifax, Elland, or Huddersfield.

How we quote

Fixed price, not a rough rate

Plastering is priced after a site visit. Access, the condition of what's underneath, ceiling heights, and whether we're working around fitted furniture all feed into the quote. You get a fixed written quote rather than a rough day rate.

FAQs

Plastering in Brighouse: common questions

  • Do you cover Rastrick, Hipperholme and Lightcliffe?

    Yes. All of HD6 and the HX3 side, on the same working days as Halifax and Elland.
  • We have had damp proofing done. When can you re-plaster?

    Follow what the damp company specified for re-plastering, because their guarantee usually depends on it. After that it is like any other re-plaster, and we give you a date it will be dry enough to paint.
  • Can you plaster over artex in a 1930s semi?

    Usually, if it is sound. Artex from before 2000 can contain asbestos, so get a sample tested before anyone sands or scrapes it. Skimming over it avoids disturbing it.
