Plaster & Beads delivered to Antrim

Gypsum plasters are bagged powders mixed with water: undercoats such as bonding and hardwall build up the surface, and finish coats such as multi-finish and board finish give the smooth final skim.

We deliver plaster to sites, driveways and yards across Antrim, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

Delivery to Antrim: what helps

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

Things to check before you order

Undercoat for the background

Hardwall suits high-suction backgrounds like brick and block; bonding suits low-suction backgrounds like concrete or painted surfaces.

Finish coat

Board finish is made for plasterboard; multi-finish suits most undercoats and board.

Questions about plaster delivery in Antrim

Why does my plaster go off too quickly?

Old or damp plaster sets faster. Use bags within their date and store them dry.

Do you deliver plaster to trades and homeowners in Antrim?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Antrim?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

Which undercoat for a brick wall?

Hardwall is the usual choice for high-suction backgrounds like brick and blockwork.
