Plasterers in Howick
Howick, Bucklands Beach and the eastern bays hold some of Auckland's better older housing stock, much of it plastered and much of it now being renovated rather than replaced.
Renovation plastering means matching an existing texture, which is harder than starting fresh. It is worth seeing a sample panel before committing.

What is solid plastering, and how does it differ from a plaster cladding system?
Solid plastering is a cement-based plaster applied by hand, in coats, directly onto a solid substrate such as concrete block, brick or fibre cement sheet. A modern plaster cladding system is a manufactured build-up — cavity battens, a specified substrate board, reinforcing mesh, a modified basecoat, a texture coat and a paint system — installed to the manufacturer's specification and covered by their warranty. New homes in Auckland are almost always the second type, because a drained cavity is required for weathertightness compliance.

As a broad guide, exterior plaster cladding systems in the Auckland region typically run between roughly $120 and $220 per square metre of wall area supplied and applied, depending on the system, substrate, number of storeys and complexity of detailing. Recoating or repairing existing solid plaster usually sits well under that. Heritage and specialty interior lime work is priced individually.
