Plastering costs - External wall

cletus

Wondering if anybody could give me a rough price per m2 to plaster the boundary wall around my house.

Kevin McCloud

€5 per metre.

cletus

Thanks Kevin. Is that labour only I presume

Kevin McCloud

It would be, how big is the wall? any pics?

cletus

Here's a picture. 2m (ish) high, and at a rough estimate 100m long, without measuring.

Its a cavity block wall, the other sides wouldn't be plastered, dunno if it would make a difference to finish our durability etc

That's more or less the plan, trying to get some idea of cost here

Kevin McCloud

Have you many dividing pillars in the length of the wall?

Wall runs from the front the whole way around the house and back to the front on the other side. Detached house. Could be 80m haven't measured it yet

Ive a shed I want to get done, its one long side (the side facing the house, youre saying 5 per meter squared, its about 6 x 2.25, Id have to measure it but a third of it is a door, so roughly about 10 meters squared, you think it would only cost me 50 euro labour?? sounds too good to be true. Although one other side is accessible, could get that done too, two other sides arent really very accessible.

whats the cost per metre square to pebble dash (wet dash?) as the house has that on rear, although I dont like the look of it, so been thinking of render smooth.
Ive two windows and a large door (reveals I think they are called), any idea of cost there?

Any ideas, looking to get a ballpark figure before I go enquiring.
I saw a shed done that backs onto a main road, thinking of trying to find the house and ask them who plastered/rendered it as its a tidy job, thats my biggest concern, that it looks ok,
So anyone, render and (I think they are called reveals around door/2 x windows?)?

Any update on this thread? Did you get a plasterer and how much did it cost in the end? Would you recommend? I have a similar job to do. Thanks
