Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Chester-le-Street is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- On busy streets in Chester-le-Street, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Plaster & Beads questions
Can I add other materials to my Chester-le-Street 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.
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.
What is the difference between multi-finish and board finish?
Board finish is designed for skimming plasterboard. Multi-finish works on plasterboard and on undercoat plasters, so it is the more flexible choice.
Do you deliver plaster to trades and homeowners in Chester-le-Street?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
