Things to check before you order

Finish coat

Board finish is made for plasterboard; multi-finish suits most undercoats and board.

Undercoat for the background

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

Estimating your plaster

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.

How delivery works in Oban

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Oban is in an area where deliveries are priced individually because of the distance and access, so we quote each order separately.

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Questions about plaster delivery in Oban

Do you sell render?

Yes, sand and cement render materials and bagged renders on request.

Can you deliver plaster to a site with restricted access in Oban?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Why does my plaster go off too quickly?

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

Do you deliver plaster to trades and homeowners in Oban?

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