Home Extensions & Additions

Plastering, rendering, painting gyprocking, carpentry and joinery are areas of our expertise that JR Dean Constructions provide within the home improvements market. As painters and decorators we are able to cover both the exterior look and interior section of the home for bathrooms, hallways, ceiling areas within the home as well as stairways. Gyprocking is a lining board that is suitable for both walls and ceilings and is used to prepare surfaces for painting or feature products. Gyrprockiing, plastering and rendering is commonly used when undertaking commercial office or retail fitouts, office renovations, as well as applied during various stages of the home extensions.

The process of external plastering also referred to as Stucco that is composed of lime and cement. A plasterer requires equipment like floats, trowels, hammers and a variety of cement that can be used with colouring agents.

Successive coats of plaster are applied upon the surface, one coat is considered very coarse and looks like cheap plaster work, and is done to buildings that can make do with a plain coat of plaster work to keep away the draught and weather for example the outhouse. Two coats of plaster are done for residential apartments in rooms of lesser importance or then in warehouses. Two coats of plasterwork are often referred to as render used to set in the walls with lath and plaster to set in. A thin coat is then applied that helps setting and then it is brushed or trowelled for a smooth finish.

Carpentry and Joinery is about of fabricating, assembling, installing, renovating, and repairing doors, frames, formwork and other fittings in buildings.
