Planning the drop in Gateshead
Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Gateshead is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
Sizing your order
Skimming 25 m² of walls and ceilings at about 2 mm takes around 3 bags of 25 kg finishing plaster, plus angle beads for external corners. Coverage varies with the background, so allow a spare bag.
Things to check before you order
Finish coat
Board finish is made for plasterboard; multi-finish suits most undercoats and board.
Fresh stock matters
Old plaster sets fast and unevenly. Order it close to when you need it and keep bags dry.
