How much does a plasterer charge per room?

Expect to pay £300–£600 per room for skimming over existing plaster, or £600–£1,000 for full replastering including stripping back to brick. Ceiling plastering adds £200–£400 per room.

How often should I repaint my house exterior?

Most exterior paintwork needs refreshing every 5–7 years depending on exposure, paint quality, and substrate. South-facing and exposed walls may need more frequent maintenance.

What is the difference between a carpenter and a joiner?

A carpenter works on site — fitting kitchens, hanging doors, laying flooring, building stud walls. A joiner works in a workshop making bespoke items like staircases, windows, and furniture. Many professionals do both.

Should I use a handyman or a specialist?

For small, straightforward jobs (shelving, curtain rails, minor repairs), a handyman is fine. For anything involving electrics, gas, plumbing, or structural changes, always use a qualified specialist trade.
