Window & Door Plaster Bands — Illustrative diagram

Window & Door Plaster Bands is a building-planning choice included in the Price Your Build estimator. It can affect plaster quantity, labour, opening details and maintenance.

What this option means

Adds plaster and paint surrounds to the estimators calculated window and external-door opening perimeters. Confirm surround width, corner details, sills, lintels and any waterproofing with the final drawings.

Why it affects the estimate

The estimator uses this selection to apply an appropriate allowance. Actual requirements depend on the final design, site conditions, supplier selection and contractor scope.

Before proceeding

  • Confirm the surround profile and width, sill and lintel details, corner beads, compatible paint system and any moisture-management details before work starts.
  • Compare the final specification and inclusions against quotations before appointing a contractor.
