What is PlasterQuote?

Accurate plastering estimates room by room

PlasterQuote is a dedicated quote calculator for plasterers in the UK. Skim coats, full reboards, dot-and-dab and external render — all covered with the right bag counts and labour days.

Most plasterers price from experience and end up undercharging on big skim jobs or forgetting beads, scrim and PVA. PlasterQuote replaces guesswork with a structured, wall-by-wall estimate.

It supports multi-finish skim, browning and bonding, plasterboard reboards and external monocouche / sand-and-cement render.

  • Skim coat coverage per m²
  • Browning and bonding pricing
  • Plasterboard reboard mode
  • Dot-and-dab adhesive calculator
  • External render (monocouche, S&C)
  • Beads, scrim, PVA all included
  • Built-in profit margin protection
  • Works on your phone on-site

How PlasterQuote Works

Three steps from the job site to a professional quote your customer can trust.

01

Describe the plastering job

Tell PlasterQuote the room dimensions, ceiling height and whether it's a skim, full reboard or dot-and-dab. For exterior, choose the render system.

02

Get an instant plastering estimate

PlasterQuote calculates bags of plaster, board counts, bead lengths, scrim and labour days — automatically.

03

Send a professional quote

Hand the customer a clean, itemised plastering quote that breaks the job down properly.

Built for the trade

PlasterQuote is designed specifically for how this trade actually prices jobs in the UK — not a generic estimator.

Skim coverage

Accurate bag counts for multi-finish skim with the right coverage per m² — no more buying three extra bags 'just in case'.

Reboard & dot-and-dab

Plasterboard sheet counts, adhesive bags and fixings for full reboard or dab work — including waste allowance.

External render

Monocouche and sand-and-cement render priced per m² with scaffold and weather allowance built in.

Beads & scrim

Angle beads, stop beads, corner beads and scrim tape totalled by the metre — the small stuff that adds up.

Works on your phone

Quote from the room itself. Mobile-first — measure, enter, send.

Margin protection

Set your profit margin and PlasterQuote applies it consistently across every job.

Why PlasterQuote is different

Not another generic quote app.

Built by people who've spent years on the tools, not by software people guessing at how your trade works.

01

Trade-specific maths

PlasterQuote prices work the way your trade actually prices work — not a generic hourly-rate spreadsheet with your logo bolted on. The right questions, the right defaults, the right answer.

02

The whole job, not just the number

Quote, customer record, invoice and calendar all in one place. No three apps, no copy-pasting numbers between tools, no missed jobs because the calendar lives somewhere else.

03

Built for the van, not the desk

Phone-first. Works one-handed. Works offline. Survey done, quote sent before you've finished your tea. No "I'll get back to you tomorrow" — and no losing the job to someone faster.

04

Honest pricing

£19/month, everything included. No "starter" tier with the calculator stripped out. No surprise invoicing fee. No per-quote charge. The price you see is the price you pay.

Why we care

Quoting badly costs you real money — and we've watched too many good tradespeople bleed it out.

Underquoting a rewire by £400. Forgetting two bags of skim. Eating an extra day's labour because the survey was vague. Losing the job entirely because the customer got someone else's PDF first. PlasterQuote exists to stop all of that. One subscription, every tool you need, built specifically for the way your trade actually earns a living.
