The average plastering rate per square metre ranges from £10 to £20, although it can be higher for more intricate work or specialist finishes. Daily or hourly rates can range from £150 to £250, depending on the complexity of the job and the experience of the plasterer.
There are several different types of plastering techniques used in renovation projects. Each type has its own characteristics and is suitable for specific applications. Here are some common types of plastering:
- Skimming: Skimming is the most common type of plastering and involves applying a thin layer of finishing plaster onto a prepared surface. It is used to create a smooth and even finish on walls and ceilings, covering imperfections and providing a suitable surface for painting or wallpapering.
- Dry Lining: Dry lining, also known as plasterboarding or stud walling, involves fixing plasterboard panels to walls or ceilings. The plasterboard is attached to a metal or wooden framework, creating a smooth and even surface for decorating. Dry lining is often used for its speed and efficiency in creating new partitions or concealing existing surfaces.
- Rendering: Rendering is the process of applying a mix of sand, cement, and water to external walls to create a protective and decorative finish. It can be done using traditional sand and cement render or through modern systems such as polymer-based renders. Rendering enhances the appearance of the exterior while providing weather resistance and insulation properties.
- Venetian Plaster: Venetian plaster, also known as polished plaster, is a decorative technique that involves applying multiple thin layers of plaster mixed with marble dust or other aggregates. The layers are burnished or polished to create a smooth, glossy, and marble-like finish. Venetian plaster is highly versatile and can be used to create various textures and effects.
- Roughcasting: Roughcasting, also known as pebbledash or wet dash, is a textured finish applied to external walls. It involves throwing or projecting a mix of cement, sand, and small stones onto a wet base coat of render. Roughcasting provides a durable and weather-resistant finish with a textured appearance.
Skimming the average room with standard walls and ceilings can typically take anywhere from a few hours to a full day, depending on the size and accessibility of the space. However, it’s important to consider drying time between coats and any additional time required for preparation work or surface repairs.
