Pre-Plaster and Skimming Checklist

This pre-plaster and skimming checklist helps contractors and site teams confirm readiness before plastering and rendering. It covers airtightness membranes and tapes, acoustic insulation in studs and joists, fire-rated wall build-ups, moisture-resistant boards in wet areas, fixings and spacing, scrim taping and priming, lighting requirements for skimming, and grey coat drying times. It also guides external works, including scudding, scratch coats, final render, soffit beads, treatment of reveals and features, and checks for reinforcement mesh and steel member preparations. Use it to document site details and attach clear photos for quality assurance and compliance.
