Overview
Plastering and plasterboard work sits right in the middle of the build program — you are hanging and setting sheets, cornicing, patching and finishing, often racing to hit the painter's start date. You work off builders, renovators and direct homeowners, and your cash flow is at the mercy of the build above you: when their job slips, your start slips, and your invoice waits.
In a crowded field of plasterers and plasterboard contractors across Australia, the ones who stay ahead manage their booked jobs tightly, keep crews busy across multiple sites, and chase progress claims hard. Materials — sheets, compound, cornice and beads — go out the door before the job is paid, and you are often carrying labour and materials on a site while you wait 30 days or more for the builder to settle the invoice.

Common questions
Most keep a working-capital buffer so they can cover wages and materials while progress claims clear. Staging your invoices, claiming promptly and keeping a couple of jobs running at once smooths the gaps between payments.
Running several sites at different stages and lining up the next job before the current one finishes is the key. A quiet gap costs you the wages you still have to pay, so booking ahead protects your margin.
Jobs that run over and material price rises on fixed quotes. Underquoting labour for a tricky set or patch, and rework from a rushed finish, are where the money leaks. Quoting accurately and building in a buffer protects what you keep.
