When would I need plastering specialist?

A plastering specialist is the person you need when the plastered walls, floors or ceilings in your home, office or business premises are showing signs of wear and damage, or you have new walls, both interior and exterior, which need to be plastered. A plastering specialist works with various types of plaster or cement, according to the needs of the job. He is the person to call when restoration work requires the matching of existing plaster patterning or ornamental plasterwork is in need of repair.

What can a plastering specialist help with?

Plastering ceilings and high walls

A plastering specialist is responsible for the preparation and application of plaster or cement to any appropriate surface, with either smooth or patterned finishes. His duties include the filling of cracks and holes, ensuring a smooth and invisible transition from the repaired area to the existing surrounding surface. A skilled and experienced plastering specialist will ensure that smooth wall surfaces are free of ridges, bumps or obvious uneven patches. Where patterned surfaces are required, the plastering specialist will ensure that the pattern he creates is continuous and error-free, and will match existing patterns as far as possible in repair jobs. He is responsible for the erection of appropriate scaffolding when plastering ceilings and high walls, as well as the required protective covering of existing structures such as doors, windows, counter tops and floors during the plastering process so that wet plaster does not fall on them and harden.

Mix plastering materials correctly

The work of a plastering specialist is one which requires skill, dexterity, speed and a steady hand, as well as good visual assessment of the surface after completing the job at hand. There is nothing more annoying than a wall which shows clear evidence of careless workmanship in the evenness and smoothness of the surface, or the evidence of a poorly matched repair in patterned plasterwork. The plastering specialist has to be able to mix his materials correctly, as well as calculate how much plaster or cement will be required, all of which will affect the budget required for the particular job.

A skilled and experienced plastering specialist may be employed to work on the restoration of historical buildings, which is a job requiring a high measure of artistic input, as this may require using moulds to create ornamental plasterwork.

Merging walls

Where semi-permanent plasterboard or drywall internal floor to ceiling partitions are erected to divide large open spaces, such as in office buildings where the layout may change fairly frequently according to the client’s needs, a plastering specialist is often called in to ensure that the new walls merge seamlessly with existing walls.

Swimming pool plastering

Get a quote from a swimming pool plastering specialist if your swimming pool has cracks and leaks, or is in need of refurbishment. It is possible to repair or refurbish a leaking pool without losing the water it contains, as your specialist company may be able to offer you water storage facilities for the duration of the work. Be aware that a specialised pool plaster is required for such jobs, as it should be proven to withstand cracking and stretching due to changes in temperature, as well as colour fading.

How to find the right plastering specialist

Check their online ratings and customer plastering reviews

Plasterers or plastering specialists are easily found through their ongoing advertising presence. You will find them listed in newspapers, home catalogues, the Yellow Pages of the telephone directory, and more frequently, online. Uptasker is a great resource for finding the right plastering specialist in your geographical area, and you will be able to check their online reviews at the same time, which is extremely useful. Word of mouth referrals are always preferable, but if this is not possible, then make sure you check testimonials provided by previous clients. You should always check quality of work, range of services offered, experience and adherence to budget and time constraints.
