Front room replaster & redecoration

This front room needed its walls taking back and redoing. The walls were boarded and the joints scrim-taped, then skimmed to a smooth finish.

Once the plaster had dried, the room was decorated. The finished photos show the bay window side and the chimney breast side of the room.
