Top Plasterer related questions
Generally, you won't need a specific plastering licence for small jobs. However, if you plan to work on larger projects, there may be some requirements to fulfil depending on your state.
For example, New South Wales requires a licence or certificate for any residential building work exceeding $5,000, including plastering. The type of licence you need depends on the project's value. For other states, plastering might fall under a broader construction licence.
The average cost of plastering ranges from $23 to $70 per square metre, but this range can vary depending on various factors such as your location, the type of plaster you require and the area of the house to work on. For a more precise estimate, request a detailed quote from your Tasker.
It could take one to three days, depending on the number of areas that you need to have plastered. For a more precise estimate, consult your Tasker.
Plaster usually dries after two to three days on the first application, then another seven days for the final coat.
Yes, lime plaster is an excellent choice to consider. It’s an environmentally friendly material that helps to regulate humidity and reduce the risk of mould, making it ideal for homes in Australia’s varied climates. And of course, it works well with both contemporary and traditional designs, which is a great plus.
Gypsum plaster is a widely used material for interior wall and ceiling finishes. Other common choices are cement plaster and clay plaster. A more modern and affordable option is synthetic plaster made of plastic. Each type of plaster has its own unique properties, so it's best to consult your Tasker for the best material for your purpose.

What do plasterer services include?
For top-quality plastering, it is best to hire experts. Airtasker can match you with tradespeople with the right skill set and proven portfolio to improve your walls or ceilings’ aesthetic appeal, longevity and durability. Plastering is crucial for repairing surfaces, priming your home for remodelling or incorporating decorative features to enhance your living space.
Here are other plastering services you can get via Airtasker:
Ceiling plastering
Applying plaster to the ceiling is a task that requires a high level of skill and precision due to the overhead work. Plasterers begin by cleaning the ceiling surface and preparing the surrounding areas. While some Taskers can move or cover furniture, you may need a separate service to clear the space. Once the area is ready, a base coat of plaster is applied, followed by a finishing coat after the base has set. Experts take special care to ensure smooth and even coverage without sagging or dripping.
Wall plastering
If you need a smooth interior wall surface for wallpapering or repainting, opt for wall plastering. The process is similar to ceiling plastering, though plasterers have easier access and more room to move due to the vertical surface. Plasterers remove dust or debris from the wall and cover the rest of the area, then apply two coats of plaster for complete and even coverage. Wall plastering can also involve drywall plastering or applying plasterboard for added protection against noise and humidity.
Plaster repair
To avoid recurring damages to the plaster, experts often recommend hiring other specialists to work on any underlying issues near or supporting the plaster before they start the actual plaster repair job. Once problems like leaks or damaged pipes are addressed, plasterers inspect the site to assess the extent of the damage. They then prepare the appropriate amount and type of plaster needed for the repairs, making sure it matches the existing plaster in terms of texture and appearance. After completing the repairs, it's advisable to hire a painter to apply a fresh coat of paint to restore the plaster to its former glory.
Plaster coving
To add elegance to a room or hide noticeable imperfections, consider plaster coving. For this service, decorative moulding is installed on the junction where walls meet ceilings. While different types of plastics are now used for coving, plaster remains the best choice due to its adaptability even in awkward angles and areas. Plasterers measure and cut the coving to fit and then install and secure it with adhesives.
Lime plaster
For an environmentally friendly choice, you can opt to use lime plaster. A traditional technique that uses plaster with lime, lime plastering creates a breathable wall finish and a durable surface that can last for centuries. Lime plaster is also known for its natural antiseptic properties and ability to regulate humidity, making it ideal for spaces prone to dampness and for preserving the integrity of older structures.

A roughly 3m X 2m section of ceiling plaster has sagging as seen in photo. The ask is to: - Straighten this plaster out so it is flat throughout with no wobbles. - Remove the ceiling vent fan visible in the photo, patching this plaster section and painting it. This section should look identical to the rest with the plaster perfectly finished. This is a 100 year old cottage so great care must be taken when in ceiling cavity.

I have recently completed some alterations to my laundry and now I need some plasterboard repairs completed to the splashback prior to tiling. The corner at the right side edge of sink needs to remain as I do not wish to fix the corner or repaint. The tiles we are using are 100mm x 200mm subway tiles so unfortunately we can't just tile over the damage. The repairs need to be suitable for toles, so flat and neat finish but not blemish free.
Great work, efficient, and punctual.

I am hanging plaster ready for the installation of new joinery in my home office and required a plasterer to stop up the already hung plaster. In the photos attached, you can see the size of the wall, which will be plastered about half way up. Plus the small section of the roof and side wall which will require stopping up, half of which you can see has been started. I anticipate this may be a couple of hours work. Happy to answer and questions or negotiate on price given your time estimation
Excellent work. Would use again.
