GIB Stopping & Internal Plastering Services in Takapuna
West & Sons Construction delivers professional GIB stopping and internal plastering across Takapuna and the wider North Shore. Whether you are building new, renovating, or repairing, we give your walls the finish they deserve.
What is GIB Stopping and Interior Plastering?
GIB stopping is the process of smoothing over the joints, screw holes, corners, and surface marks on plasterboard walls and ceilings. Interior plastering covers a broader range of internal wall finishes, from skim coats and solid plaster walls through to decorative finishes like Venetian plaster.
Done properly, the result is a seamless surface that looks like one solid wall, with no bumps, joins, or shadow lines showing through paint. When it is rushed or uneven, you will notice it the moment light hits the wall, especially near windows or under downlights. That is why getting the right team matters.

Our Internal Plastering Services in Takapuna
GIB Stopping for New Builds and Fresh Plasterboard
Just had new walls or ceilings installed? We prep and stop everything from screw holes to exposed joins using multi-coat systems, so your paint goes on cleanly and looks sharp from day one.
Interior Plaster Repairs and Patch Work
Cracks, dents, and damaged plasterboard are common in older Takapuna homes. We repair and blend everything back seamlessly, including corners, edges, and frames, so the repair disappears into the wall. For homes with traditional solid plaster walls, we can match and restore existing finishes rather than replacing them with plasterboard.
Skim Coating and Surface Preparation
If your walls are uneven, tired, or showing their age, a full skim coat of plaster brings everything back to a flat, consistent surface. It is one of the most effective ways to refresh interior walls before repainting, without the cost of full replastering.
