Do Your Walls Need Professional Plasterer for Wet plastering in Sydney?

As you will probably know, plastering is definitely one of those skills that take years to master. So if your walls are particularly big, plastering them yourself is out of the question. Seriously don't try it if you have never done it before. In these cases you could try to use Polly-filler and lots of rubbing down. See how that turns out once painted.

However if your walls have big chunks missing/wobbly lines everywhere/damp/bits falling off/artex etc then you will need to get a plasterer in.  If you live by near Sydney then wet plastering in Sydney services will be best for you. The right plasterer can be expensive, but when you see the finished painted result it would have been worth it. It will give your walls that deep/velvety finish you see in show homes, or luxurious hotels/apartment suites. And even if you cannot afford expensive one then affordable rendering service in Sydney is also available for you, and they will provide you good services in affordable price.

The same can be said about painting. Although with some practice and research you can achieve professional painting results pretty quick. It all adds to the final finished result.

But let’s talk about how you could plaster a wall yourself. First I would recommend you try to plaster a small built-in wardrobe or utility cupboard/room. Maybe that little cupboard under the stairs? Once you have decided on what you will take on, you need to get your tools and materials. You will need a plasterers trowel, hawk, mixing drill bit, 5inch paint brush, couple of buckets, plastic sheeting, PVA adhesive, and of course plaster.

When it’s tacky add the plaster to water first! If you do the other way round it will set in about 5 mins. Now it’s mixed it will start to chemically set. Apply a first coat using the hawk and trowel. Spread it evenly. Don't keep going over it initially as it will be too wet to make it flat. It will need some time to stiffen up. Then try to flatten it.

Then give it a second coat, but much thinner than the last. Again wait for it to stiffen up before trowelling flat. Once you have been over it about 5 times with the trowel, then use a little bit of water over it. This will help flatten it out further. Then when it’s pretty much set and areas are just about starting to change color, you can go over it once more with the trowel. This should give the plaster a nice finish for painting. Then clean up the tools and admire your work!

Of course it’s much easier on paper than actually doing it. But there's no harm giving it a go, you might even have a natural ability in plastering.
