Getting the right plaster

Undercoat for the background

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

Fresh stock matters

Old plaster sets fast and unevenly. Order it close to when you need it and keep bags dry.

Delivery to Dumfries: what helps

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Dumfries is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• In summer Dumfries gets around 17h 23m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

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.

Which undercoat for a brick wall?

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

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.
