Plasterers are skilled tradespeople who apply plaster to walls and ceilings to create a smooth, even surface. They prepare the area by cleaning and sometimes repairing the underlying structure before applying the plaster. This work is essential in both new construction and renovation projects, as it provides a foundation for painting or wallpapering. In addition to traditional plastering, some plasterers specialize in decorative techniques, such as stucco or faux finishes. They often work with various materials, including gypsum and lime, to achieve different textures and appearances. Plasterers play a crucial role in the overall aesthetics and durability of interior and exterior surfaces.
