Plastering supplies

jibbyboo

Doing a plastering job and need to get the following items at the most reasonable cost possible:

• angle beads
• plasterboard
• SBR
• plasterboard adhesive
• top coat plaster

Was planning to trawl the web, but if anyone does this on a regular basis and knows where I can get the cheapest (but not poor quality) materials then that would save me hours!

Thanks!

Locally tome, B & Q Tradepoint can't be beaten on price. By and large I can't stand B & Q, but can be quite mercenary when it comes to price. Also things like CLS timber, sand and cement etc are the lowest prices locally.

i've not looked at tradepoint for plastering, but generally I find them expensive, unless you're buying expensive branded things in the first place

i get plasterboard from Selco

I had considered B&Q as I know Tradepoint is ok. Was hopeful there might be an online wholesaler that would be even cheaper - particularly as non-trade SBR is £17.48 (don't have login details to check B&Q tradepoint for all the bits I need).

Thanks all for the suggestions. I've found out that Wickes are have a price promise promotion and will beat any offline store quote by 10%. Has to be a like-for-like product, but not necessarily the same brand.

So looks like a trip to B&Q followed by Wickes so far.
