Afternoon all
Apologies if this is a daft question, I've only owned a place for the last three months and I'm trying to get my head around it. Walls in my place are 1920s masonry and I want to sort out two problems with them:
a) the wall quality is crap - if I paint it I can see loads of divots and gaps in it - so I assume it needs plastering before painting?
b) there's no space to run electric / telecoms cables - all the cables are tacked on to the wall with plastic runnings and it looks ugly as hell
What's the best way of making this kind of space look clean? I don't think I have the budget to chase electric cables into the wall, but I quite like the industrial look so I'd be fine with that sort of galvanised metal cable trunking running down the walls. Just not sure where to begin tbh.
