Getting plaster onto your North Shields site

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

  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Choosing 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.

Estimating your plaster

Skimming 40 m² of walls and ceilings at about 2 mm takes around 4 bags of 25 kg finishing plaster, plus angle beads for external corners. Coverage varies with the background, so allow a spare bag.

Do you deliver plaster to trades and homeowners in North Shields?

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.
