Plaster & Beads delivery in Wick

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.

Things to check before you order

Finish coat

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

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.

Delivering plaster in Wick

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

  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

Your questions answered

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

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.

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.

Do you deliver plaster to trades and homeowners in Wick?

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

Do you sell render?

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