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?
Your plasterer services include all the activities necessary to apply plaster on your walls and ceilings, apply different types of plaster, and repair damaged areas. Your hired plasterer can do the necessary planning and preparation before application. Your Tasker can recommend the most suitable materials and use the appropriate materials, all while following the manufacturer’s recommendations, building codes, and best practices of the construction industry. Plasterers can work on different services based on the construction requirements of buildings, such as:
Ceiling Plastering
Plasterers can seal each portion between plasterboards with fibre tape, plaster moulds, or a similar protective material. They can mix the plaster to the right consistency, apply it to the ceiling and ensure complete and consistent coverage. Your Tasker can ensure the application complies with the manufacturer’s instructions, industry best practices, and any appropriate regulations when doing projects.
Wall Plastering
A plasterer can prepare the site by placing a protective covering on the floor, furniture, light switches, and electrical sockets. You may hire someone to do the wiring before plastering or switch off the power before your Tasker starts work. Your wall plasterer can use the appropriate tools and techniques to plaster your walls and follow the instructions for drying and reapplying plaster coats until the job is finished. Plasterers can help with drywall plastering or plasterboard to provide additional protection against noise and humidity for interior walls. When working on outdoor plaster cladding systems, an exterior plasterer can help with fixing cracks or adding a new protective layer.
Plaster Repair
Plasterers can inspect the site to assess the extent of the damage. You may need to hire someone to inspect and repair areas close to or supporting the plaster before your plasterer starts work. You can also ask someone to check if the plaster damage is due to leaky or busted pipes and fix those first. Your plasterer can prepare the appropriate amount of plaster for the repairs and do what is necessary to mimic the existing plaster. After repairs are complete, you may want to hire someone to apply fresh paint to the restored plaster and return it to its former glory.
Plaster Coving
As for plaster coving, plasterers can inspect and prepare the site before working on the coving. Some Taskers can move or cover the furniture in the room, but note that you may have to hire a separate service to clear the space. Your Tasker can measure and cut the coving to fit, install it onto the ceiling with adhesives and secure the coving as the adhesive sets.
Polished Plaster
To apply polished plaster, plasterers can prepare the walls by cleaning and smoothing them with a sander. Following the manufacturer’s instructions and industry best practices, they can apply as many coats of polished plaster as needed, sanding or applying glaze between coats. They can apply a water-based sealant to finish the job.
Lime Plastering
Plasterers prepare the site and mix lime plastering material of the right consistency. They can apply the lime plaster in the appropriate number of layers, scoring and smoothing each layer as needed and allowing the layers to dry between applications.
