Achieve a good quality in ‘Plastering’ | | | | Some precautions for good Plastering are given below:
- Fix all the fittings of electric pipes, water supply pipes, and electric boxes etc. properly as per drawing /requirement before starting the plaster work.
- Fit all the pipes so deep into the walls that the pipes can get proper thickness of mortar on them to avoid cracks in plaster surface.
- Make proper bond between the background and the plaster coat. Make surface of the wall clean, free from all racked mortar and dust etc. with the help of iron brushes.

- Protect all the fittings on the wall.
- Clean any splash of mortar on a finished surface immediately on completion of the work.
