Choosing from our plaster range

  • HardwallUndercoat for high-suction backgrounds such as brick and block.

  • Multi-finishFinish coat for most backgrounds.
  • One-coat plasterFor patching and small areas in one application.

Planning the drop in Taunton

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

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Sizing your order

Skimming 30 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.

Choosing plaster

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.
