Plaster creates an even and durable finish, smooth and ready for the next part of the project. It\u2019s an essential part of the final appearance and can be a big and expensive job. So, hiring a qualified professional can give you some assurance that everything will go as planned and meet your expectations. But what you should pay attention to, and how much does plastering cost?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we\u2019ve gathered the current plastering rates, tips on saving money on the project, as well as helpful advice for hiring a plasterer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Want to know how much plastering costs per square metre;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Want to find out the factors that influence the cost of plastering;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are wondering which type of plaster to choose for your job,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep on reading &#8211; this post is for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"types_of_plaster\">Which type of plaster is best for your job?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Different types of plastering vary in durability, appearance, and installation method. Some options require specific qualifications and experience to apply. It\u2019s always good to know the basics when you start negotiating with plasterers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the most used types of plaster:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Plasterboard<\/strong> &#8211; Also called drywall or Gyprock, it\u2019s the most preferred option by builders in Australia as it\u2019s easy to install and ideal to line walls or build partitions. It\u2019s also available in sound insulation, moisture resistance, or fire protection variations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wet plaster <\/strong>&#8211; A solid plastering mix of lime, cement, gypsum, or other materials, providing a smooth and durable wall finish. Wet plastering requires professional application and 2 to 7 days to dry out, depending on the undercoat. Wet plaster is fire resistant and more soundproof than drywall.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ornamental plaster<\/strong> &#8211; This is a plaster used to sculpt design elements, moulding, and cornices. It can be applied directly to the walls, columns, or ceilings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lime plaster<\/strong> &#8211; It\u2019s not used very often as it requires a particular application method. Made of lime and sand, it provides a breathable and durable surface.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cement plaster<\/strong> &#8211; Made of cement and sand, it\u2019s rough and grey in colour. It creates a solid and durable wall finish but tends to shrink and crack over time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Gypsum plaster<\/strong> &#8211; This type of plaster is easy to work with and provides a smooth, paint-ready surface. It doesn\u2019t shrink and is highly resistant to mould and mildew.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know the basics, there are several other aspects to consider when planning your plastering project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<section class=\"section section--single-post\">\n\t\t<div class=\"related-article\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"related-article__title\">You may also like:<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article__title -->\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"related-article__body\">\n\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"related-article__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/laminate-flooring-installation-cost-in-australia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"Laminate Flooring Installation Cost in Australia + Calculator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Laminate-Flooring-Installation-Cost-in-Australia-Calculator-Featured-Image-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Laminate Flooring Installation Cost in Australia + Calculator - Featured Image\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5120px) 100vw, 5120px\" title=\"Laminate Flooring Installation Cost in Australia + Calculator &#8211; Featured Image\" \/><\/noscript><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure> <!-- \/.related-article__image -->\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"related-article__desc\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"badge-holder\">\n\t<span class=\"badge badge--color-3\">Home Improvement<\/span>\n<\/div>  <!-- \/.badge-holder --> \n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/laminate-flooring-installation-cost-in-australia\/\" class=\"short-text\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"Laminate Flooring Installation Cost in Australia + Calculator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLaminate Flooring Installation Cost in Australia + Calculator\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article__desc -->\n\t\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article__body -->\n\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article -->\t\n\t<\/section> <!-- \/.section section--single-post -->\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"factors_that_influence_cost_of_plastering\">Factors that can influence the cost of plastering<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from the type of plaster, rates per square metre vary depending on the project\u2019s specifics, such as the size of the project and the state you live in. Besides, some more aspects may influence your final price, for example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Removing existing plaster<\/strong> &#8211; If there is old plaster that has to be replaced, removing it will cost extra, and the tradesman will have to dispose of it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Difficult access fee<\/strong> &#8211; If your plasterer has to use scaffolding or the access to the walls and ceilings is difficult, it will cost you more.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ornamentals <\/strong>&#8211; The complexity of the work will cost you more as it requires experienced professionals and extra time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The choice of materials <\/strong>&#8211; Adding a special finish or trendy textured plaster can also increase the project\u2019s price.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, let\u2019s dive deeper into the numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_much_does_plastering_cost\">How much does plastering cost?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Plastering<\/strong> in Australia costs from<strong> $25 to $90 <\/strong>per square metre for material and labour. <strong>Hourly rates<\/strong> of hiring a plasterer<strong> <\/strong>vary <strong>between $45 and $105<\/strong>. The rates vary in different states, depending on the size of the project, the complexity, the type of plaster, and the number of coats required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plasterers usually offer a flat rate for a room or for an entire home. This includes the main plastering work with the option to have the place and the constriction waste cleaned after the service, which may come with an additional fee. For example, <strong>plastering a 3-bedroom house<\/strong> will cost you <strong>around $10 000 to $15 000<\/strong> for a standard job, including the materials and installation. Yet, if you\u2019re planning a small renovation or repairing a damaged wall, you\u2019ll get an hourly rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All prices above cover the rates for standard hard plaster finish &#8211; wet plaster applied to the entire wall or ceiling. Due to installation specifics, there are different rates for plasterboard and ornamental plastering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plasterboard installation cost<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"912\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cost-of-plasterboard.jpg\" alt=\"Cost of Plasterboard\" class=\"wp-image-16895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cost-of-plasterboard.jpg 912w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cost-of-plasterboard-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cost-of-plasterboard-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cost-of-plasterboard-360x202.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px\" \/><\/noscript><\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">saravutpics \/ Shutterstock.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Plasterboard installation<\/strong> will cost you<strong> $15 to $30 <\/strong>per square metre for the labour and materials. <strong>Hourly rates<\/strong> for plasterboard vary <strong>from $45 to $55<\/strong> in different areas. So, the budget for a <strong>3-bedroom house<\/strong> can be roughly <strong>around $10 000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to apply plasterboard on a ceiling, the rates will be the same as for a standard wall job. However, a <strong>more ornate ceiling <\/strong>will cost you<strong> 10% &#8211; 15% more<\/strong>, as it requires more time and experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plasterboard installation is a less labour-intensive and faster process than hard plastering. The material comes in standard 2.4&#215;1.2 metre sheets, which are then nailed to the surface. Covering walls without windows costs less, as windows require cutting and more taping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ornamental plastering cost<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"912\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/ornamental-plastering.jpg\" alt=\"Ornamental Plastering\" class=\"wp-image-16896\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/ornamental-plastering.jpg 912w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/ornamental-plastering-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/ornamental-plastering-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/ornamental-plastering-360x202.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px\" \/><\/noscript><\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">jantsarik \/ Shutterstock.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cornice installation<\/strong> can cost <strong>about $5 to $10 <\/strong>per linear metre, including labour and materials.

Renovating a <strong>Victorian-style 3-bedroom house<\/strong> can cost you <strong>around $20 000 <\/strong>or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cost of ornamental plastering depends mainly on the complexity of the project. It can take many forms, like decorative ceiling ornaments, wall decorative cornices, arches, and fireplace surrounds. It requires skilled and experienced professionals, so you\u2019ll have to get individual quotes for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section section--single-post\">\n\t<div class=\"note \">\n\t\t<div class=\"note__icon\">\n\t\t\t<i class=\"icon-tip\"><\/i> <!-- \/.icon- -->\n\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.note__icon -->\n\n\t\t<div class=\"note__body\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p>Check out the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) benchmark ranges of labour prices for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ato.gov.au\/businesses-and-organisations\/income-deductions-and-concessions\/small-business-benchmarks\/in-detail\/plastering-and-ceiling-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">plasterboard<\/a> installation.<\/p>\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.note__body -->\n\t<\/div> <!-- \/.note -->\n<\/section> <!-- \/.section section--single-post -->\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_save_money\">How to save money when hiring a plasterer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you already know, a quality finish can be costly, as it is an art and a fairly skill-intensive job. Consult your plasterer on what you can do and where you can make some savings. Think about the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Clear the spaces out<\/strong> &#8211; Make the plasterers\u2019 work easier by clearing out the rooms and covering all you can\u2019t take out. The easier the work, the smaller the bill will be.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Remove the existing plaster, plasterboard, skirting boards, or wallpaper <\/strong>&#8211; The contractors will likely charge you a lot to remove the old materials. If you\u2019re not afraid to get your hands dirty, do it yourself and remove everything you can.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add a plaster primer<\/strong> &#8211; If it\u2019s applicable and the wall has been stripped bare, add a coat of plaster <a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/difference-between-primer-sealer-undercoat-paint\/\">primer<\/a> so that the specialist can apply the wet plaster directly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Plan your renovations wisely<\/strong> &#8211; The estimated time to completion is an integral part of pricing. Also, the bigger the job is, the less you will pay per square or linear metre. So if you want to renovate part of your house now and another part later, maybe it\u2019s not such a good idea in terms of final plastering costs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"question_to_ask_before_hiring_plasterer\">Question to ask before hiring a plasterer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you want to guarantee yourself the best looking walls and ceilings, you have to make sure you\u2018re hiring the right professional for your project. There are some essential questions that you have to clarify before signing the contract with a plasterer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Questions about the time for the job<\/strong> &#8211; It\u2019s mandatory to ask how much time they will need for the whole project. Usually, it takes 1 or 2 days to plaster a room. Also, it\u2019s important to ask when your plasterer can start working.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Insurance and license<\/strong> &#8211; You have to check if your plasterer is fully insured to perform the service. Also, you have to ask if they\u2019re licensed for the job in the part of Australia you live in. For example, in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumer.vic.gov.au\/licensing-and-registration\/builders-and-tradespeople\/checklists\/becoming-a-registered-building-practitioner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Victoria<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qbcc.qld.gov.au\/licences\/apply-licence\/available-licences\/builder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Queensland<\/a>, plastering is covered by a builders license. In NSW, there is separate licensing for wet plastering and plasterboard. In other states, plasterers complete Certificate III training, \u201cPerform High Risk Work\u201d and \u201cWhite card\u201d.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reference and examples<\/strong> &#8211; Ask your friends and family for recommendations. It\u2019s always better to trust a vetted professional. Also, ask for examples of finished projects to ensure you will like the work in the end.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Written quotes <\/strong>&#8211; Get 2 &#8211; 3 written plastering quotes and check all the details to ensure your peace of mind. Make sure all your questions are clear. Keep in mind that the cheapest offer isn\u2019t always the best. It\u2019s worth spending more money on a more experienced plasterer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be challenging to plan and calculate the cost of your plastering project, but it\u2019s worth it. What\u2019s more, saving some money on unexpected jobs will let you spend more on things you want. So, the ball is in your hands now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section section--single-post\">\n\t<div class=\"check-price-box check-price-box--certificates\">\n\t\t<div class=\"check-price-box__body\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"check-price-box__title\">Need help with your home renovation project?<\/h3> <!-- \/.check-price-box__title -->\n\n\t\t\t<p class=\"check-price-box__desc\">Fantastic Services\u2019 professionals will do all the hard work for you!<br \/>\n<\/p> <!-- \/.check-price-box__desc -->\n\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"form form--full-width form--check-price dynamic-helper\">\n    <form class=\"default-check-price-form\" action=\"\">\n        <div class=\"form__inner\">\n            <div class=\"form__field the-postfield-wrap\">\n                <span class=\"icon-holder\">\n                    <i class=\"icon-pointer\"><\/i>\n                <\/span>\n\n                <input class=\"field the-postfield\" type=\"text\" name=\"postcode-field\" placeholder=\"Enter your post code\" data-service-type=\"Handyman\" >\n                <span class=\"focus-label\"><\/span>\n                <div class=\"field-error-msg\">Add a valid postcode e.g. 3000<\/div> <!-- \/.field-error-msg -->\n            <\/div> <!-- \/.form__field -->\n\n            <div class=\"form__btn submit-wrapper-with-loader active\">\n                <div class=\"load-holder-lds-eclipse\">\n                    <div class=\"load-lds-eclipse\"><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n\n                <input class=\"btn btn--large checkpPricesSubmit\" name=\"check-prices-submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Get a quote\" rel=\"nofollow\" disabled>\n            <\/div> <!-- \/.form__btn -->\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.form__inner -->\n    <\/form>\n<\/div> <!-- \/.check-price-form -->\n\t\t\t<div class=\"certificates-holder\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<ul class=\"certificates certificates--small\">\n\t<li class=\"certificates__title\">We're certified:<\/li>\n\n\t<!-- <li><i class=\"cert-bicsc\"><\/i><\/li> -->\n\t<!-- <li><i class=\"cert-fwc\"><\/i><\/li> -->\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-safe-cantractor\"><\/i><\/li>\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-green-achiever\"><\/i><\/li>\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-chas\"><\/i><\/li>\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-fmc\"><\/i><\/li>\n<\/ul> <!-- \/.certificates -->\t\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.certificates-holder -->\n\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.check-price-box__body -->\n\n\t\t<div class=\"check-price-box__image\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\"  src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/fantasticservices-com-blog\/assets\/images\/check-price-box\/check-price-box-bg.png\" alt=\"Need help with your home renovation project?\"><\/noscript><\/div>\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.check-price-box__image -->\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section> <!-- \/.section section--single-post -->\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section section--single-post\">\n\t<div class=\"takeaways\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"block-title\">Takeaways<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\n<div class=\"bullet-list bullet-list--normal\">\n\t\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Plastering prices vary depending on the project\u2019s specifics, like the state, the size of the job, and the type of plaster.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ask for recommendations and examples.
