Order plaster for delivery in London

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.

For jobs in London we quote plaster as a delivered price to your postcode, with the vehicle and offload method agreed up front.

Delivering plaster in London

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

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around EC1 are priced to the exact address.
  • With roughly 7h 49m of daylight in London around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

Sizing your order

Skimming 15 m² of walls and ceilings at about 2 mm takes around 2 bags of 25 kg finishing plaster, plus angle beads for external corners. Coverage varies with the background, so allow a spare bag.

Common questions from London

Why does my plaster go off too quickly?

Old or damp plaster sets faster. Use bags within their date and store them dry.

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.

Can I add other materials to my London 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.

Do you deliver plaster to trades and homeowners in London?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
