Plaster & Beads for Belfast, delivered to site

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 Belfast, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

How delivery works in Belfast

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.

  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • On busy streets in Belfast, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

Sizing your order

Skimming 20 m² of walls and ceilings at about 2 mm takes around 2 bags of 25 kg finishing plaster, plus angle beads for external corners. Coverage varies with the background, so allow a spare bag.

Questions about plaster delivery in Belfast

Can I add other materials to my Belfast delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from plaster to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Do you deliver plaster to trades and homeowners in Belfast?

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

How much plaster do I need to skim a wall?

A 25 kg bag of finishing plaster covers roughly 10 square metres at a 2 mm skim, but coverage varies with the background and thickness. Check the bag.

Why does my plaster go off too quickly?

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