Plastering in Sydney CBD and Inner East

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

Common plastering jobs

Plastering work can include repairing damaged walls or ceilings, patching holes and marks, and installing new plaster. The right approach depends on what needs attention and the extent of the work. When describing the job, explain which surface is affected and what you want done. If there are several areas to repair, include each one in your request. Photos can help show the plasterer what the job involves, so they can consider the details when preparing a quote.

How to brief your plastering job

Describe what needs doing, where the work is, and when you would like it done. Note whether the job involves a wall, ceiling, patching or new plaster, and point out every area you want included. Add photos if useful to show the condition of the surface and the extent of the work. A clear request gives suitable local tradies a better basis for quoting. You only need to describe the job once through Knut; you can then message the tradie and follow progress in one place.

Costs and Knut's booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. When you book, you pay the tradie's quoted price for the work and one booking fee to Knut: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Review the quote details before booking so you understand what work it covers.

Choosing and checking a plasterer

Knut matches on the service, area, availability and reviews of the tradie, then compares the quotes received for your job. This trade does not generally need a trade licence. Read the quote to check that it reflects the work you described, including each wall, ceiling or patch you want addressed. If anything is unclear, message the tradie through Knut before booking. Knut lets you keep messages and progress updates in one place, which can help you stay informed as the work proceeds.
