comtt74 0 Report post Posted January 26, 2011 Greetings. Anyone has any contact for contractor who provide service to buff or smoothen Rockstone wall? Plastering will be my last option. Please kindly advise. Thank you and best regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steelze 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2011 during my reno, my id told me that to smoothen my rockstone walls and ceiling, it will be more costly than plastering. because labour cost to grind and make smooth the wall is more labour intensive, especially on ceiling... end up i just plaster the whole rockstone ceiling. till now, the plaster still looks good w/o any sign of peeling off... *fingers crossed* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My contractor also asked me to do plastering. Since yours still looks good, i guess i don't need to worry abt it too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
