Plastering | Building Supplies

Plastering products are essential for achieving clean, smooth and long-lasting interior surfaces. Whether you’re skimming walls, preparing uneven substrates or building up damaged areas, high-quality plastering materials provide the strength, finish and reliability needed for professional results across both renovation and new-build projects.

Plaster for Skimming, Levelling and Internal Surface Preparation

Plaster is used to create smooth, durable finishes on walls and ceilings. Ideal for skimming plasterboard, covering rough surfaces and preparing rooms for decorating, plaster provides excellent workability and a consistent, polished final surface suitable for paint, wallpaper or other finishes.

Beading for Strong Edges and Professional Finishing

Beading (including angle beads, stop beads and skim beads) helps shape clean corners, reinforce edges and create sharp, straight lines during plastering. Made from PVC or metal, beading ensures durable, crack-resistant edges and improves the overall quality and accuracy of finished walls and ceilings.

Multifinish Plaster for Smooth, High-Quality Skim Coats

Multifinish plaster is a versatile finishing plaster used nationwide for achieving smooth internal surfaces. Easy to trowel and excellent for both plasterboard and backing coats, multifinish plaster dries to a strong, fine finish ready for painting or decorating within hours.

Hardwall Plaster for Fast, Strong Backing Coats

Hardwall plaster is a rapid-setting backing plaster designed for high-impact areas requiring added strength. Ideal for masonry surfaces, hardwall plaster offers excellent adhesion, fast application and a robust base for finish coats such as multifinish plaster.
