Career - Solid Plasterer

I need assistance to choose
Solid Plasterers will level and straighten corners, angles, and wall and ceiling surfaces and will clean and prepare surfaces by stapling wire-mesh frames to them, or by roughening them with mechanical hammers. They will mix and apply coats of plaster, cement, render or similar materials to walls and ceilings, levelling and smoothing them using trowels. They will apply finishing coats of plaster to give a smooth finish or decorative texture and fix precast cornices and panel mouldings, ceiling centres and other plaster fittings. They will render exterior walls and moulds and will finish the underside of concrete floors with a mixture of cement and granite chips or blue metal. They will erect scaffolding (subject to licence requirements in some states or territories) and trestles.
