The 2 Day Plastering Course

This plastering course will teach you how to plaster in a relaxed and friendly environment. No previous plastering experience or knowledge is required.


2 Day Plastering Course

Suitable for gaining a general overview of all the plastering techniques needed for backing coat and finish coat, with additional practice and tuition time to ensure all the skills are mastered. Ceilings are also included.
