I’m looking for a plasterer/labourer to complete all remaining plastering in my garage so it is fully ready for painting. I started the project but was injured and couldn’t finish. Current status: • All gyprock sheets are installed • Left wall is complete (base coat + top coat applied, sanded, paint-ready) • Parts of the ceiling have base coat applied and need sanding and top coat • Remaining ceiling areas and the right wall require gaps filled, base coat, top coat, and sanding Scope of work (to be fully completed by you): • Fill all joints, gaps and screw holes • Sand and apply top coat to all areas where base coat has already been applied • Apply base coat and top coat to all unfinished areas • Sand all surfaces so the entire garage is smooth and ready for painting • Leave no plastering work incomplete Time estimate: Approximately 6–8 hours of labour, possibly more — happy to discuss. Tools & materials: • Ladder and basic tools available • Base coat and top coat supplied, however they are past best-before, so you may prefer to bring your own Other details: • This is a garage (not inside the house), so I’m not after a premium finish — just a neat, paint-ready result • Flexible with work times • Please only accept if you can complete the full scope within your quoted budget Photos are attached and I’m happy to send a video walkthrough if helpful. Feel free to ask questions before accepting. Area is Croydon Park, NSW 2133
