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.

Firstly Rob turned up exactly on time, which these days seems to be a thing of the past. He worked solidly until the job was finished and only took one break. The walls were very smooth when he had finished and his attention to detail in obtaining the required finish was quite obviously of utmost importance to him. He took his time and did the job right. I would recommend him to anyone 100%.

I HIRED ANDY TO RENDER SIDE & BACK OF MY HOUSE. THE PRICE WAS FAIR . ALL STARTED WELL , IS LABOUR DAVE WAS VERY HARD WORKING DOING MOST OF THE WORK. WHEN ANDY TURNED UP TO PUT THE COATS OF RENDER ON THE BACK , THERE WAS AFEW MISSES & A WAVE GOING FROM ON END TO THE OTHER. WHEN HE DONE SIDE WALL AGAIN THERE WAS MISSES , NOT ONLY THAT BUT THROUGH OUT HE LEFT THE PLACE UNTIDY . DID NOT PUT THE DOWN PIPE BACK ,DID NOT REPLACED THE BROCKEN TILES , DID NOT REPLACE BROCKEN STEP, DID NOT PUT THIRD COAT ONE LIKE HE SAID HE WOULD . AFTER TELLING ANDY ABOUT ALL THE SAID ABOVE, IS REPLY WAS IT WILL COST ME TO PUT IT RIGHT. SO MUCH FOR THE AGREED PRICE FOR THE WORK UNDERTAKEN. NOT VERY HAPPY BECAUSE IT COST ME MORE MONEY TO GET A NOTHER BUILDER IN TO FIX IS MESS , WOULD NOT RECOMMED HIM.

Plastering- 30 Apr 2022
Before I begin, I want to be fair and say that Mike seemed like a nice guy and I'm sure he is very able in many things, however, plastering is not one of them. My previous plasterer broke his arm, so I was in need of a new tradesperson quickly. I received a call from Mike's partner, who arranged a quotation promptly and we agreed on a price. I later met Mike and two other 'plasterers' at the property being renovated as agreed. Three days later, I received a call from one of mike's crew (claiming to be Mike himself) who went round in circles for ten minutes until he effectively told me 'the job is too big, we can't do it'. I told him in that case I'd meet him at the property within the hour to get the key back and be done with it. Upon arrival, Mike and his crew were nowhere to be found, and the state they left my house in was disgusting. They had been smoking inside, there was half eaten sandwiches on the floor, rubbish everywhere, the fittings were covered in plaster splatters, not to mention the quality of the walls they did manage to plaster. The list goes on. I haven't tried to reach Mike as I got the message quite clearly. Mike, I understand if you are trying to branch out to other fields, though in future, if the job is too big or the price agreed is too low, may I recommend you give your customers a call yourself to discuss, rather than leaving them in the dark and making a run for it. I'd steer well clear of this one.

Plastering- 19 Mar 2017
Marlon is a very polite efficient worker, he impressed at the initial quotation meeting with his assessment of the work needed and how best to repair it. His quote was competitive and reasonable. Marlon completed our work in just two days working alone. He removed areas of damaged plaster on the hallway, living room walls and fitted a new ceiling in the hallway. He explained what he would do and pointed out issues uncovered once the old plaster was removed. He cleaned up at the end of each day including sweeping the driveway. The results are excellent and I have no reservation in recommending Marlon to others needing plastering works.
