Plastering & Rendering

Plaster or dot and dab?

Anonymous user 03/11/2026 - 8.10 AM

I have a bare brick extension that will eventually be a kitchen. What is the best way for this to plastered. Plasterboard and skim or sand/ cement then skim?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

I would definitely go for sand and cement render then skim over plaster-boarding. This will give you much more secure/stronger fixings for your kitchen units.
