Cottesmore is a quiet residential village in central Rutland, approximately 3 miles south of Oakham town centre, with easy access to the A606 corridor. The village comprises a mix of Victorian stone cottages, 1960s–1980s semis and detached homes, and newer executive properties built in the past 15 years. Its semi-rural character means most homes sit on larger plots than urban alternatives, with many featuring original plasterwork alongside modern extensions.
Period properties in Cottesmore commonly experience settlement cracks and damp-related plaster failure, particularly in north-facing walls exposed to Rutland's variable weather. Modern homes in the village typically report drywall seam issues and corner cracking caused by timber movement or inadequate site preparation during construction.
For Cottesmore's older properties, selective repair of cracked or damaged plaster is often the most economical option, preserving original character while maintaining structural integrity. Newer homes in LE15 may benefit from full plasterboard replacement if damage is extensive, ensuring smooth finishes and better sound insulation.
“Good experience overall. Took a few hours to hear back but the plasterer was professional, assessed the damp-damaged wall honestly and gave a realistic quote for the repair. Job done well.”
“Used this to compare quotes for re-skimming our lounge and hallway. Had 3 plasterers contact us the same day. Went with the middle quote and the finish is absolutely perfect. Highly recommend.”
“Needed external rendering quotes for our semi. Got three quotes within 24 hours — very different prices for similar spec. Really glad I used this rather than just calling one company.”
