The work

Plastering in Sydney.

A wall looks only as good as the surface under the paint. Plaster work makes that surface flat and smooth. Then the painter takes over.

Sydney is the capital of New South Wales. Say where the house is, and if the work is inside or outside.

Venetian plaster is a polished finish for inside walls. Pick Solid or decorative plaster in the form.

For a shop, office or other business site, pick Something else and tell us about the building.
