Why you should get a plasterer to plaster the walls of a large room

The key to perfect plastering is to do the entire wall in one go. If you stop part way through to mix up more plaster you’ll always see the join. Or if you’re simply not fast enough to complete the job in one go, the plaster won’t dry evenly and you’ll get a lumpy finish. So when it’s a large room, it’s always worth getting an experienced plasterer to tackle the job.

An experienced plasterer brings the specialist equipment they need, like plasterer’s stilts to get to those hard-to-reach corners. Planks and trestles mean they don’t have to keep stopping to move the ladders. And if the room is particularly large, they’ll bring a labourer with them to mix as they go along. That way they don’t have to stop half way through, leaving you with a seam that you’ll always see – even if you’re planning to paper the wall after they’ve finished.
