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.

Last September I had a new fireplace knocked out and a log burner fitted ready for winter. I hired Craig to plaster the chimney breast before having the mantle piece fitted. Craig was a very friendly, well mannered and pleasant worker and his pricing was very reasonable. He made sure everything was cleared up and tidied after he had finished; ready for decorating and he did a great job of the chimney breast! In fact I am hoping to be able to hire Craig in the near future to plaster my living room. Very happy customer!

Bathroom Fitting- 2 Dec 2020
Bathroom was completed. However it leaked through the kitchen roof like a running tap, the contractor was emailed (as you can't call him) 3 days later one of his contractors came out, took 2 days to find the leak, once dried out came back to patch holes made in roof (which was a new roof before the job started) and now can't get a response from the contractor to finish the roof off from the damage, having searched the Internet for other contact details, found a number of similar complaints for same issues.

Milen, initially came as I had a leak in my ensuit where the tiles had lost their grout. He was very honest in giving me advice, and regrouted at a very reasonable price. He then came a month later to remove the tiles in the shower and replace the plaster protection board, then retiled. He purchased all the products and gave me advice on the most valuable sustainable tiles. The work was carried out a to very high level, I would most definitely hire Milen in the future, and highly recommend him.

The job included putting in lintels, rendering interior walls then plaster boarding over them. The job was extremely big and involved but Rob managed it with the utmost experience and professionalism. He overcame any problems he faced along the way. His understanding of what I wanted was excellent and his communication with me about punctuality and keeping me informed was second to none. I would never consider using anyone else again for building work and plastering.

Steve came out at the beginning of May to install a stud wall, insulate, plasterboard then plaster. Steve was brilliant, he turned up early and then stayed late to get the job finished. He cleaned up after himself, swept and hoovered up, he even offered to buy a mop but I told him that wasn't necessary. The quality of Steve's finish is excellent, it's painted up lovely. He's also a real nice bloke. I'm getting back in the summer to plaster my ceilings. I'd have no problem in recommending Steve to friends and family.

Excellent excellent builder. I can not recommend MAS Development Solutions highly enough. Initially I hired him to finish off some plastering work that another builder let me down on. In the end because of the flawless job he did, his fantastic attitude and great rates I invited him to do the refurb work on the whole house which included, plastering, tiling, bathroom fit, kitchen fit, wooden flooring, prepping a fireplace, rendering, removing a wall and fitting a new window. I'm happy to provide photos and more details for anyone that is interested. Matt went above and beyond what was asked of him, arriving early, working late, making helpful suggestions and picking items up for me. I'm so pleased to have a builder I can trust that does excellent work, with the right attitude at the right price.
