Plastering is mostly measured work — walls and ceilings by the sqm, cornice by the lineal metre — and the substrate condition drives the number more than floor area ever does. Tradewin prices each job against your real board, cornice, compound and labour costs, from a single gyprock patch to a full renovation strip-and-set, and sends the quote before you leave the job. Save your common work — ceiling sets, cornice runs, patch repairs — as TradeWin Recipes™ so the next quote is a two-tap job.

Pre-loaded job types with benchmarks — plus the ability to add your own custom jobs.
The same job can vary widely. Tradewin prices against your real costs, so these factors are built in — not guessed.
On renovation and re-sheet work the state of the existing wall is the biggest cost driver — a sound surface skims fast, a damaged one means strip, re-sheet and set.
Cornice is priced per lineal metre, but profile complexity and ceiling height change the rate — a plain cove and an ornate profile at height aren't the same job.
Number of coats, corner bead count and plaster type all move the per-sqm rate on wall sets — more corners and more coats mean more time.
Patch pricing depends on how many patches, what caused the damage, and whether painting is included — a single ding and a water-damaged ceiling are different quotes.
Arch / Feature Wall Plaster
Curves and feature elements require more time and skill — width varies significantly so per-sqm keeps quotes accurate.
Commercial Plastering
Commercial rates vary with specification, access, and programme requirements.
Cornice Installation
Profile complexity and ceiling height affect per-metre pricing.
Full Room Plaster Set (fixed price)
Fixed room quote — room size, ceiling height, and window/door count drive variation.
Full Room Plaster Set (per sqm)
Enter floor area (L × W) as a proxy for room size — ceiling height and window count affect the per-sqm rate.
Plaster / Gyprock Repair
Number of patches, cause of damage, and whether painting is included affect pricing.
