Plaster & Beads for sites in Highland

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 price plaster for jobs anywhere in Highland; send a list or the sizes of the job and we will quote it delivered.

Plaster & Beads delivered in Highland towns

Working out quantities for your Highland job

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.

Getting plaster onto your Highland site

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Across Highland, deliveries are quoted individually because of the distance and access.

  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Before you order plaster

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.
