Plastering is one of those trades you don't think about until you've got a hole in a wall or a ceiling that's sagging from a leak. The plasterers on HelpSorted handle full gyprock sheeting jobs, cornicing, ceiling repairs, hole patches, and water-damage rebuilds.

For a small hole patch (under 30cm), expect $250-$450 including sanding and priming ready for paint. Full room re-sheeting runs $1,500-$3,500 depending on size. Cornicing for a 3-bedroom house adds $1,200-$2,400. Ceiling repairs after water damage need the source fixed first (plumber, roofer) - most plasterers will quote conditional on the leak being sorted.

Plasterers work in close coordination with painters - a flush, sanded patch ready for paint is the minimum standard. Ask the plasterer whether the quote includes priming, or whether you need a separate painter to finish. Many SE QLD plasterers also do specialist textured finishes (Venetian, decorative concrete look) if you ask.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a plaster patch take to dry?
Compound dries in 24-48 hours; full curing (so it can be painted without cracking) needs 5-7 days in SE QLD humidity. Plan your paint job around that.
Do plasterers also paint?
Some do both, most don't. The standard handoff is plasterer leaves it sanded and primed; painter finishes coats. Use our Painters category for the paint job.
What's the difference between gyprock and old-style plaster?
Modern AU homes use gyprock (paper-faced gypsum sheets). Older homes (pre-1970s) may have hard plaster on lath - that's a specialist repair, costs more, and you want a plasterer who's specifically done that work.
How big a hole can be patched vs replaced?
Holes up to about 30cm are usually patched. Bigger than that, the plasterer cuts back to the nearest stud and inserts a new section - still cheaper than a full re-sheet.
