Areas that add up
Walls, ceilings and reveals as separate lines so the client sees why a 'small room' is 60 m². The calculators do the bag counts per coat.
Quoting software for plasterers and renderers
Plastering is priced by the square metre and lost in the bits nobody measured — the ceilings, the reveals, the making good after the sparky. EstiMate's plastering and rendering calculators turn areas into bags of multi-finish, bonding, hardwall and render, and the quote carries labour by the day or by the m² with your own rates.
- Skim over existing plaster
- Board and skim to new stud and ceilings
- Hardwall and bonding to masonry
- External sand-and-cement and monocouche render
- Repairs and making good
- Insulated render systems
What a good plasterer's quote needs
Priced properly, explained clearly, paid on time
Prep and access spelled out
Stripping paper, PVA, beading, scaffold or towers for render — priced as their own lines, not absorbed.
Labour by m² or by day
Quote memory learns your rate per m² for skim, board-and-skim and render, so the next quote starts from your real numbers.
Photos of the substrate
A site photo of blown plaster or damp before you start ends the argument later.
Where plasterers & renderers lose money on quotes
- Missing ceilings and reveals from the measure
- Not pricing beads, scrim and PVA
- Render quoted without scaffold or drying time
- Making good after other trades done for free

Questions plasterers & renderers ask
Does the plastering calculator give bag counts?
Yes — bags of multi-finish, bonding, hardwall or board finish for each coat from the area you enter, with a waste allowance.
Can I quote by the square metre?
Yes. Any line can be priced per m² with the quantity being the area; labour can be a package or a rate × area.
Does it handle external render?
The rendering calculator covers coats, mix ratios, cement bags and sand for sand-and-cement render; monocouche is priced by bags per m² on the quote.
Is there a free version?
Yes — 3 jobs a month free, including the calculators.
