How often should I get my plastering done?

Plastering is typically done during renovations or repairs, but areas that get damaged or cracked might need touch-ups every few years to keep your walls looking their best.

Can plasterers fix cracks in walls?

Absolutely. Experienced plasterers can repair everything from tiny hairline cracks to larger, more serious damage, leaving your walls smooth and ready for decorating.

How long does plastering take?

The time depends on the size and complexity of the job, but a skilled plasterer can usually complete a typical room in a few days, including drying time.

How can I tell if my plaster needs repairing?

If you notice cracks, bubbling, damp patches, or crumbling plaster, it’s a good sign you should get a professional plasterer to assess and fix the problem.

What types of plaster do plasterers work with?

Professional plasterers are trained in a variety of plaster types, like traditional lime plaster, gypsum plaster, and modern finishing plasters, and will recommend the best option for your home and project.

Simon was a jolly good find for us and overall we could not be more pleased and consider ourselves lucky to have appointed him. Simon is a committed tradesman. He was knowledgeable, happy to give advice, was focused and wanted to deliver an excellent job, and he did even in the worst conditions. Simon was a good communicator, always responded to inquires and questions. He limited and controlled the inevitable mess and the site was cleared up to more than a acceptable standard and honoured his original quote to us Thank you

Kitchen Fitting- 14 Sep 2021
Needed our new kitchen worktops and wall cupboard fitted as well as a new piece of worktop added where there wasn’t any after being let down by several companies and being given ridiculous prices. GT Construction contacted me about my job and came to quote me the next day, they were able to fit me in quickly and got the job done to a high standard and at a very fair price. Looking to get our bathroom done in the next month and we know who we’ll be contacting for that! 10/10

Got Tristan in to do a small area of render on my investment property for £150, he did a great job! I got on with him well and discovered he and his bother were new to mybuilder, but had a lot of experience as builders mainly carpentry and plastering. My project needed a vast amount of plasterboarding / plaster skimming & patching up & lots of carpentry. £15,000 later and I can’t thank the boys enough. They have demonstrated hard work, good value for money on their quote, and the finish was a massive relief, stunning!!! Last of all, trust and integrity!!!! You get a feeling after meeting people what they are about and I think I felt trust and they demonstrated integrity throughout. Thanks! All the best moving forward….. Benjamin Sanders

I contacted Fraser to plaster our full garage to outhouse conversion due to recommendation through word of mouth. I am so glad that I did. From day 1 Fraser arrived on time and worked conscientiously throughout. After finishing, there was not a single bit of mess left for us to tidy up which I was really impressed with. The finish he left on my walls and ceiling was incredible. He made the room look like a show room. I have had numerous people in the outhouse since and they comment on the plastering finish as it is that flawless. I would definitely recommend contacting Fraser to undertake any work. He is extremely friendly, works at a good pace and gives an excellent price for the professional finish he provides.

Greg and Jack have been the most professional, diligent and capable tradesmen we've had on the whole project. The skim coat on the ceilings and boxing was fantastically smooth. Their communication was very good and they were always available to discuss the job. They also accommodated longer/later working hours. When additional or remedial bits were needed they patched me up at no extra charge - and their quote was very reasonably priced. Very happy to have hired them, would hire again and recommend in a heartbeat - they are brilliant.

Malachi is very professional and did a great job repairing and then plastering the ceiling and walls of our bedroom. He gave us good advice about what actually needed doing (we thought we had to replace the ceiling but Malachi managed to just repair what needed repairing, reducing significantly the overall cost). We are very happy with the results, and Malachi was available to get everything done quickly and at short notice. Thank you!

Bathroom Fitting- 1 Feb 2022
Simon was great. Turned up to view the job at our rented property and gave a reasonable quote on the spot. We asked him to contact the tenant to arrange a day to do the job. He did and he kept in contact with us throughout. The job was completed in very good time and for a little less than we expected. Tenant is happy. We're happy. We will certainly use him again. Fully recommended.
