Plastering specifically refers to the process of applying a thin layer of plaster mortar to interior walls in order to level them and prepare them for painting, wallpapering or further finishing. The purpose of plasterwork is usually to achieve a smooth, flat surface. Although “plastering” is often used as a synonym for stucco, it is in fact a sub-genre of stuccoing.
Plastering provides a smooth finish to walls and ceilings, hides imperfections, and provides protection against moisture and mould. In addition to these aesthetic benefits, they also increase the fire resistance and insulation of rooms. Whether preparing for painting or improving the lifespan of walls, plasterwork is an essential step in construction and renovation.

All plastering is stuccoing, but not all stuccoing is plasteing. Plastering is specifically aimed at finishing interior walls with a smooth coat of plaster, while stuccoing can include a wider range of finishes and materials, for both indoors and outdoors.
The drying time of plaster depends on the thickness, temperature and humidity. On average, each millimetre of plaster takes 1-2 days to fully harden. It is crucial to allow the material to dry completely before continuing with painting or wallpapering in order to avoid potential problems.
Skimcoating is a thin layer of stucco, ideal for correcting minor imperfections and preparing for painting or wallpapering. Plaster on the other hand is more robust and intended for larger irregularities or the creation of new surfaces. The choice between the two depends on the condition of the surface and the intended result.
