My Uncle is a joiner and he has been helping me with parts of the house. He has a friend who is a plasterer who has been doing it for years blardy blar... He works for a company but does bits at a weekend to get a bit more money. How much do you think it would cost to plaster baisically just under half a house worth as I have had electrics all done so channels but also damp course so about a meter on ALL the walls downstairs up to a meter high and other bits too!, their are no ceilings just walls to do. Its bare brick at the moment. And my uncle recons about 3/4 days work. Its in the north west and its an average 3 bed semi
Thanks!!

I dont know what he does at the weekends, not my problem, what im askin is, what do you think he will charge? Im sure he is legit whatever he does, hes about 65 and hes been a plasterer for 40 odd years apparently0

About a grand plus the cost of materials for a good plasterer for 4 days.0

I had to have my kitchen (2.4x2.1x2.4 ceiling height) and living room (5x4.8x2.8) all walls and ceilings plastered and skimmed recently and I had it done for £600 + my materials (another £200ish...) through mybuilder.com.
hope this helps. Very messy job though! but pleased with the results...hope this helps0 -
We pay our permanent plasterers £14 hour on our payroll.
