Hi,
Got a bit of work done on the house, in the main bedroom one wall needed to be plastered, this was over plasterboard. I left it for a week before painting and gave it 2 coats. It took the paint well and there has been no cracking but still a smell of plaster. It is not too strong but you definitely notice it when you go into the room and my wife is pregnant so she definitely notices it!! Also there was a small section not painted as a fitted wardrobe went in there.
How long does it usually take the smell to go away? Leaving the heating on up there as much as possible or else the window open but hoping it doesn't cause problems down the road.
Thanks for any insights!!
