Yes, we do. We cover the whole of Derby, including Mackworth, Allestree, Darley Abbey, Mickleover, Littleover and Normanton, plus nearby Burton upon Trent, Nottingham, Loughborough and Mansfield.

Do I need to skim plasterboard or can I just tape and joint it?

Either works. Tape and joint is quicker and cheaper and gives a decoration-ready surface when done well. A full skim gives a harder, more uniform finish and is often preferred in homes and where walls will be seen in raking light.
