Plasterers in Brighton – Victorian Terrace & Period Plastering
Brighton is a city of Victorian terraces, Regency crescents and Edwardian semis — beautiful houses with walls that have been standing for a century or more. Brighton Plasterers is based here, and older Brighton walls are our bread and butter: lath-and-plaster ceilings, solid masonry walls, decades of paint and paper, and the quirks that come with all of it.
What we do across Brighton
- Re-skimming tired walls and ceilings in period homes, keeping original features intact
- Repairing and replacing lath-and-plaster ceilings — overboarded or renewed as appropriate
- Making good after renovations, rewires and chimney breast removals
- Breathable plasters on solid walls that need to manage moisture
- Modern boarding and skimming for extensions and loft conversions across the city
Old walls, honest advice
A century-old wall rarely needs wholesale replacement — but it does need the right call. Skim over failing lath-and-plaster and the new surface comes down with the old; strip a wall that only needed a skim and you’ve paid for work the house didn’t need. We check what’s actually behind the surface before quoting, explain it plainly, and price the options so you can decide.
From Kemptown to Preston Park
We work across the whole city — the seafront terraces, the hill streets of Hanover, the semis out towards Patcham and Woodingdean, and next door in Hove. Wherever you are in Brighton, quotes are free, written and without obligation — and for small repairs, a photo is often enough to price the job the same day.

Brighton plastering questions
How much do plasterers in Brighton charge?
A room re-skim typically runs £400–£700, single ceilings £200–£400, full replastering more — see our cost guide for honest ranges. Your written quote is exact, free and fixed.
Can you repair lath-and-plaster ceilings in Victorian houses?
Yes — stable ceilings can often be overboarded and skimmed; ceilings where the plaster has parted from the laths are safer replaced. We check which yours is before recommending anything.
Do you cover all of Brighton?
Yes — from the seafront terraces to Hanover, Kemptown, Preston Park and out to Patcham and Woodingdean, plus Hove next door. Small repairs priced same-day from a photo.
