Plaster & Beads delivery in Locharbriggs

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.

Trades and homeowners in Locharbriggs can order plaster for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Plaster & Beads: choosing well

Fresh stock matters

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

Undercoat for the background

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

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.

Planning the drop in Locharbriggs

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

  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
