Recreating a 200-year-old Regency wall, one hand-cast bottle at a time.

This project is a section-by-section restoration of an ornate boundary wall on one of Hove's beautiful Regency Squares. Years of coastal weather, bad driving, and patchy repairs had left the balustrade beyond saving, so a complete overhaul was the only way to bring it back to its original glory.

The approach is properly old-school. We recreate the ornate bottles in our off-site workshop, using a fibreglass mould made from an original bottle, pouring them in concrete and letting them set. Then we cast a bespoke concrete lintel, also made by us off site. Once the original wall is removed and the lintel is fitted, we make up zinc horses, core out the capping, fit the bottles, and run the mouldings with the horses in situ before finishing them smooth. Every material on this job is the real thing, right down to the Roman cement.

It's the kind of work that doesn't happen with shortcuts. Bespoke mouldings, original materials, and a level of detail that has to match what's been standing in Hove for two centuries.

The biggest plastering mistake we see? Skipping the prep.

Plaster straight over gloss paint, silk paint, flaky walls or damp and it'll crack, bubble or blow within weeks. Surface prep is half the job, and the walls that still look perfect five years on are the ones that were prepped properly before the trowel ever came out.

Plastering covers a lot more than skimming a wall. On our plastering page we walk through the full range of internal work we take on across the South East, from traditional plaster, lime plasters and hair renders for period and refurbishment work, through to metal framework ceilings with the right board specification for sound and fire protection, lay-in grid ceiling systems for offices, hospitals and schools, over skimming, float and set, and forming arches, curves and niches. No job too small, from a single ceiling to a full commercial fit-out.

We've been plastering across Brighton, Sussex, the South East and London for over 20 years, we're approved subcontractors for all types of internal plastering, and we recently won British Gypsum's "Smoothy of the Year" award.

Good plastering is the foundation of every great room.

Smooth walls, crisp ceilings, clean lines, and a finish that sets up every paint job, light fitting and piece of furniture that comes after it.

Whether you're refurbishing a period property, fitting out a new build, or finishing a commercial project, the plastering has to be right. On our plastering page we cover the full range of internal work we take on across the South East, from traditional plaster and lime plasters through to ceilings, dry-lining and specialist refurbishment work.

Here's what we do:

- Internal plastering across domestic and commercial projects
- Traditional plaster, lime plasters and hair renders for period and refurbishment work
- Metal framework ceilings with the right board specification for sound and fire protection
- Lay-in grid ceiling systems for offices, hospitals and schools
- Over skimming, float and set, and forming arches, curves and niches
- No job too small, from a single ceiling to a full commercial fit-out

We've been plastering across Brighton, Sussex, the South East and London for over 20 years, we're approved subcontractors for all types of internal plastering, and we recently won British Gypsum's "Smoothy of the Year" award.

Render that looks fine on day one can crack, trap damp, or ruin the brickwork underneath if it's the wrong type for the building.

If you're asking which type of house render is best for your home, you're not alone. It's one of the most common questions we get because the answer changes depending on the age of the property, the climate, the budget, and how much maintenance you want to take on. In our latest blog, Which Type of House Render Is Best for Your Home, we break down the five render types we work with and where each one actually belongs.

Inside the blog we cover:

- Silicone render and why it's the strongest all-rounder for modern UK homes
- Lime render and why it's the only sensible option for listed buildings, conservation areas, and pre-1919 cottages
- Monocouche, the through-coloured one-coat finish popular on new builds
- Acrylic render, where it works well, and where it doesn't
- Traditional sand and cement, the cheapest option and where it still earns its place
- What coastal properties in Brighton, Eastbourne and along the Sussex coast actually need

If you've got a render job, a refurb, or an external wall insulation project coming up, this will help you choose the right system before any trowel touches the wall.

Over 20 years in the trade. 40 tradesmen. Nearly 100 years of combined experience in our Brighton office alone. Here's why that matters to you.

We're a family run plastering and rendering company covering the South East of England and London, and we do it all. Traditional plastering, rendering, EWI, dry lining, screeding, specialist mouldings, and we have our own workshop where we create and repair mouldings that most plasterers simply won't take on.

We're on the Krend and Weber approved applicators list for EWI systems. In 2017, we won the British Gypsum Smoothy of the Year Award for work that featured on Channel 4's Grand Designs. And we've got the kind of client feedback that speaks for itself.

We're not the cheapest and we don't pretend to be, but if you want it done properly, on time, and to a standard you'll actually be proud of, we'd love to talk.

Give us a call on 01273 686368, email [email protected] or head to the link below to find out more. Your project deserves the right team behind it.

A bad screed will cause problems for years. A good one? You'll never think about it again.

That's exactly how it should be, and that's the standard we work to on every job.

We carry out standard mixes, both ready mix and site mix, and we're an approved subcontractor for flowscreeds. Need something more specialist? We also carry out Ardurapid and other quick drying or high strength floor finishes.

Domestic or commercial, new build or renovation, our team covers the whole of the South East and London, so we're never far away.

If you've got a screeding project coming up, don't sit on it, get in touch now and let's get it sorted. Call 01273 686368 or email [email protected] and we'll talk you through your options.

Three main contractors. One project. They all came to us. 👇

West Sussex County Council needed external wall insulation on a school classroom, single skin substrate, poor thermal values, and the whole job had to be done within the school holidays.
Tight deadline. Unpredictable British summer weather. No room for delays.

We used K-Systems EWI products throughout, pushed hard from day one to stay ahead of schedule, and despite the weather doing its worst, we finished ahead of time and handed over a happy client.

We're on the K-Systems approved applicators list and can offer a full warranty on EWI systems. That's why three separate main contractors approached us for this exact project.

Got an EWI job that needs doing right? Don't leave it to chance, call us on 01273 686368 or head to the link below and see the full case study. We'd love to hear about your project.

Painted walls can look fine - until you skim them and the plaster starts to bubble, peel, or blow weeks later.

If you’re asking whether you can plaster over painted walls then you’re not alone. It’s one of the most searched plastering questions in the UK because the answer is not always a simple yes. In our latest blog, Can You Plaster Over Painted Walls, we cover exactly when plaster will stick to paint, when it won’t, and how to get the surface prep right so you avoid costly rework.

Inside the blog we explain:

- How to spot gloss paint, silk paint, and sealed surfaces that can cause bonding issues
- The quick checks that reveal flaking paint, unstable walls, and contamination
- What proper wall preparation for plastering looks like, including key steps to improve adhesion
- When you need bonding coat vs skim coat, and when it’s smarter to strip back

If you’ve got a renovation, redecoration, or patch repairs coming up, this will help you make the right call before the plaster goes on.

Want the straight answer for your walls? Read the blog, then message us with a photo and we’ll point you in the right direction.

Plastering that actually looks smooth in daylight.

Fullers Plastering provides professional plastering across Brighton and the South East, helping homeowners, landlords and commercial clients get clean, straight walls and ceilings that are properly ready for decorating. If you’re dealing with cracked plaster, blown areas, uneven surfaces or artex that needs covering, we can over skim to create a fresh, modern finish - ideal before painting, wallpapering, fitting kitchens or updating bathrooms.

We deliver high-quality internal plastering using proven methods, including float and set for a strong, long-lasting surface, plus specialist finishes like lime plaster and hair render for older properties where a breathable approach matters. For commercial projects, refurbishments and fit-outs, we also install metal framework ceilings, advise on plasterboard options for sound and fire protection, and fit lay-in grid ceiling systems for sites such as offices, hospitals and schools.

Want a plastering quote or some advice on the best finish for your project? Send us a message or call 01273 686 368 and let’s get it booked in.
