Plastering in the Inner East

Knut is preparing plastering coverage in Inner East. Requests and bookings open at launch.

Common plastering jobs

Plastering jobs can include repairing a damaged wall or ceiling, patching an area, or installing new plaster. The right work depends on what needs attention and how much of the surface is affected. When you describe the job, note whether it is on a wall or ceiling and point out all the areas you want addressed. If there is more than one repair, include each one in your request so tradies can consider the full scope when quoting. Knut matches requests with tradies who offer the service and cover the area.

How to brief your plastering job

Give a clear description of the work, where it is and when you would like it done. Explain which surfaces need repair, patching or new plaster, and identify each affected area. Photos can be useful for showing the condition and extent of the work; include them with your request if you have them. If anything about the job is uncertain, say so rather than guessing. You describe the job once through Knut, which sends the request to suitable local tradies. You can then compare the quotes received before deciding whether to book.

Costs and Knut's booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. Customers pay Knut one booking fee when they book: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. The tradie's quoted price for the work is paid separately. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Compare the quotes you receive against the work described, so you are considering the same scope when weighing them up. Knut compares received quotes and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit.

Choosing and checking a tradie

Knut matches on the service, area, availability and reviews of the tradie. This trade does not generally need a trade licence, so focus on whether the tradie offers the plastering service you need and covers the Inner East. Read the quote against your request and check that it addresses each wall, ceiling or patch you listed. If something is unclear, ask the tradie before booking. Once booked through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut for maintenance across many properties.
