⚙️Job details
Factors that affect cost
- Type of plastering — a skim coat is quicker and cheaper than full re-plastering
- Room size and ceiling height — larger surfaces require more time and material
- Preparation work — removing old plaster or artex adds significant time
- Number of coats required and drying time between visits
💡 Money-saving tips
- 1.Skim coating is sufficient in most cases — opt for full replastering only where plaster is crumbling
- 2.Allow walls to dry for at least 4–6 weeks before painting
- 3.Ask about mist coat painting — freshly plastered walls need a diluted first coat
- 4.Good plasterers get booked up fast — book 4–6 weeks ahead
