Re-plastering Work

Plaster is a building material used for coating, protecting and decorating internal walls and ceilings. It can also be used to create architectural mouldings such as ceiling roses, cornices, corbels, and so on. The most common types of plaster are a composition of gypsum, lime or cement with water and sand. The plaster is typically manufactured as a dry powder and then worked to form a stiff paste by mixing in water before application.

  • Board finish plaster is used on plasterboard.
  • Bonding plaster is used as an undercoat, applied to new walls.
  • Browning plaster is used as an undercoat for particularly absorbent surfaces.
  • Dri-coat plaster offers moisture resistance for walls that have had a damp proof course (DPC) inserted or injected.
  • Hardwall plaster is similar to browning plaster, but is faster drying and has better impact resistance.
  • Heat resistant plaster is used for walls and chimney breasts where temperatures may exceed 50°C.
  • Multi-finish plaster is a top coat plaster.
  • One-coat plaster is typically used as a patching plaster.
  • Tough coat plaster has exceptional impact resistance.
