FAQ Section
How Much Do Plasterers Charge Per Day?
The average cost of a plasterer in the UK is a £100-250 day charge on top of £6-10 per square meter of ceiling/wall. Of course, this depends on the plastering company.
You can expect a higher-quality service from plasterers that charge more, so sometimes it’s worth going with the slightly more expensive option. The cost will also be higher if the job takes longer to complete.
Inflation has also played a role in the price of plastering, as plasterers have to spend more on their equipment and general upkeep. BCIS has predicted that building costs will rise by over 3% in 2024, which you will likely see reflected in the cost of plastering services.
Can You Repair A Damaged Wall?
Yes, we can repair all sorts of damaged walls with our Colchester plasterers. For cracked walls, the process involves prepping the crack (for example, scoring and removing loose plaster), adding the filler, and then finishing with jointing tape.
We can sand down the plaster for a damaged plasterboard and then use a thin layer of bonding coat for a smooth finish.
An entire hole in the wall might seem tricky, but we can do that too – the process involves prepping the wall, filling in multiple layers of plaster (letting it dry in between), and then sanding it down at the end.
Is It Okay To Paint Straight Onto Plaster?
You must wait for the plaster to dry before painting! If you don’t, the paint won’t stick properly, and you’ll end up with a messy finish. How long it takes to dry depends on the plaster – a brand-new, fully plastered wall can take up to six weeks (this is very unlikely), as most plaster takes as little as three to five days.
You can tell when the plaster has dried by its pale pink appearance and absence of brown spots. Also, there are some simple ways to speed up the drying time for example. Opening windows and doors improves ventilation and helps the plaster dry out. A plastering company should be able to explain this to you beforehand.
Can You Plaster A Wall Without PVA?
Sometimes, yes. While PVA is often used for adhesion, there are some surfaces that don’t require it, such as plasterboard. Generally, very smooth walls won’t need PVA.
