Getting plaster onto your Watford site
Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load; keep them dry and off the floor. Watford is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- With roughly 7h 48m of daylight in Watford around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
Quantities: a worked example
Skimming 20 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.
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.
