7 Best Plasterers in Hull for 2026

Hull's housing stock throws up a fair range of plastering jobs, from the bay-fronted terraces around Newland Avenue and the Avenues to the post-war semis out towards Kirk Ella and the newer estates near Kingswood. Older properties often need lath and plaster taken back and replaced with modern skim coats, while damp issues near the Humber and in low-lying areas like Hessle Road can mean re-plastering after damp-proofing work. Newer builds tend to need simpler skimming or patch repairs after plumbing or electrical work. A plasterer working across the city needs to be comfortable with both traditional finishes and quicker turnaround jobs on modern plasterboard.

The businesses listed here are pulled from public business listings and ranked using review rating and review count, with a small boost given to those with a working website and phone number, since that's usually a sign of an active, contactable business. We read through each business's homepage to check that plastering is genuinely what they do day to day, which keeps tilers, general builders and other unrelated trades off this page. Any listing flagged as permanently closed gets removed automatically as part of that process. Where you spot a Trust Verified badge, that business has gone further and passed our full verification, covering trade qualifications and accreditations, public liability insurance, trading history, customer review history and registered company information. Our How We Verify page sets out exactly what that involves. For businesses without the badge, none of that has been checked by us, so it's down to you to do that legwork before booking.

Before agreeing to any work, ask for photos of previous jobs, ideally something similar to your own property, whether that's a Victorian terrace ceiling or a full room skim in a newer build. Confirm what's included in the price, plastering materials, cost of skips or waste removal, and how many coats you're getting. It's worth asking about public liability insurance directly and requesting proof rather than assuming it's in place. Get two or three written quotes before committing, since prices for the same job can vary by £100 or more between tradespeople in Hull, and a big gap in price is worth asking about rather than just taking the cheapest option.
