Hidden Costs to Watch for in Plastering Quotes

To ensure your project stays on track, you need to look beyond the initial headline figure. Some costs are frequently left out of basic estimates.

Common “Hidden” Expenses

• Waste Removal: Many plasterers do not include skip hire or the removal of old plaster in their base price.
• Unforeseen Repairs: Issues like loose plaster or damp discovered after starting can increase the bill.
• VAT: Always check if the quote includes VAT, especially when comparing larger firms with independent contractors.

A thorough understanding of these extras is essential when you budget for your plastering work.
