Plaster & Beads for Witham, delivered to site

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.

Trades and homeowners in Witham can order plaster for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Estimating your plaster

Skimming 60 m² of walls and ceilings at about 2 mm takes around 6 bags of 25 kg finishing plaster, plus angle beads for external corners. Coverage varies with the background, so allow a spare bag.

Before you order plaster

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.

Common questions from Witham

Which undercoat for a brick wall?

Hardwall is the usual choice for high-suction backgrounds like brick and blockwork.

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.
