About Plasterers
A plasterer skims and finishes walls and ceilings to give a smooth surface ready for painting.
They also carry out rendering on external walls and can repair cracks, damage, and uneven surfaces throughout a property.
A plasterer who takes time to prepare surfaces properly will always produce a better result than one who rushes straight to the skim coat.
About Lasswade
Lasswade is a historic village in the North Esk valley, connected to Bonnyrigg by the bridge over the river but retaining its own character.
It was a fashionable retreat in the 18th and 19th centuries — Sir Walter Scott lived here early in his married life, and De Quincey wrote at Mavis Bush cottage nearby.
The village has a conservation area centred on the old kirkyard and the steep descent to the river, with mature woodland lining the valley.
Lasswade shares many practical amenities with Bonnyrigg but has the feel of a distinct, quieter settlement on the valley's eastern slope.
About Midlothian
Midlothian is a compact council area immediately south of Edinburgh, stretching from the city bypass to the edge of the Scottish Borders.
It takes in the valleys of the North and South Esk rivers, the northern slopes of the Pentland Hills, and a string of former mining communities that have reinvented themselves as commuter towns and growing residential centres.
Dalkeith is the administrative centre, but Bonnyrigg is the most populous settlement — and Penicuik, set against the Pentlands, has the feel of a self-contained town in its own right.
The Borders Railway, reopened in 2015, connects Newtongrange, Gorebridge, and Eskbank to Edinburgh Waverley, and has driven significant housing growth across the region.
Midlothian is one of the fastest-growing local authority areas in Scotland, attracting families and professionals who want proximity to Edinburgh without the city price tag.
