Plasterer Level 2

Outline

Plasterers will generally work within new build and refurbishment projects, although plasterers may also work within smaller domestic work, or specialist restoration projects. A Plasterer may work on their own or as part of a small team, they will interact with customers, other trades and the project teams. As Plasterers will generally complete dry-lining tasks within their career, they must also have knowledge of dry-lining, along with their knowledge and skills required to plaster.
