Why Choose Professional GIB® Stopping Services
GIB® stopping is a skilled process that requires precision, the right materials, and expert technique to achieve a truly seamless finish. While it may look simple to fill a few joints, attempting to do it yourself often leads to costly mistakes that can compromise the look and durability of your walls and ceilings. These mistakes ruin the final appearance and often means that a professional will have to redo the work, costing you more in the long run.
On the other hand, our professional GIB® stoppers use specialised tools and proven techniques to get the job done right the first time. By leaving GIB® stopping to the experts, you’ll avoid the frustration of DIY missteps and ensure your walls have a flawless finish that lasts.
We Fix Poorly Stopped Walls: Re-stopping Services
At Above Board, we specialise in re-stopping walls to restore their smooth, seamless appearance. Our process begins with a thorough assessment of the problem areas to identify issues.
We then carefully remove or sand down the flawed work and re-apply plaster compound as needed using the correct techniques and allowing proper drying time to ensure durability. We apply tape where it was missing, add layers of compound to build up low areas, and use advanced sanding methods to achieve a flawless flat finish. Once we’re done, your walls and ceilings will be perfectly smooth and ready for paint or decoration, erasing the defects of the previous job.
You’ll be amazed at how we can turn a subpar stopping job into a surface that looks brand new.
Our GIB® Stopping Services Include:
Achieving a perfectly smooth finish is harder than it looks. Don’t take chances on your walls and leave the GIB® stopping to the experts for a beautiful result!

Frequently Asked Questions: GIB® Stopping Warkworth
Can I paint directly after GIB® stopping is finished?
No. The stopping compound must be fully dry and sanded smooth before painting. Once stopping is complete, we allow drying time, sand, and then apply a primer. After the primer dries, the surface is ready for paint.
How long does the GIB® stopping process take to dry?
Drying time is usually 24-48 hours per coat, and most jobs need 3 coats plus sanding. Cooler or humid conditions can slow things down, so we confirm timing once we see your site.
What’s the difference between skim coating and GIB® stopping?
GIB® stopping covers joints and screw points on new plasterboard so surfaces are flat and ready for paint. Skim coating is a thin layer over the entire wall or ceiling to create a smoother finish, often used for Level 5 results or to refresh older surfaces.
Do you repair small cracks or dents in existing walls?
Yes. We repair hairline cracks, dents, and small holes by patching and re-stopping the affected area. After sanding, it will be ready for repainting and blend with the rest of the surface.
