Skim coating work generally involves applying a thin, smooth layer of material such as joint compound, plaster, or other finishing compounds to walls or ceilings to create an even surface for painting or further finishing. The process typically includes surface preparation, mixing and applying the coating with tools like trowels or brushes, and smoothing out any imperfections to achieve a uniform finish. When evaluating requests for skim coating, important details include the size and condition of the area to be coated, the type of surface material, the desired finish quality, the timeline for completion, and any specific surface preparation requirements or considerations for existing damage or irregularities.
