Plasterer Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’m applying for the plasterer role at [Company Name] because I’ve seen how you handle mid to large scale renovations and I know I can fit in straight away. In the last job, I helped organise plasterboard layouts for a 150 square metre office retrofit and kept the workflow steady even when the site went through a late change in ceiling height. I like getting solid results without the fluff, and I keep tools, plaster mix and trowels within easy reach to avoid delays. My day to day focuses on accurate measuring and cutting, lifting and positioning panels, and securing plasterboard to walls and ceilings. I’ve got good hands for corner beads, cornices and mouldings, and I’m comfortable mixing plaster, applying coats and smoothing to a uniform finish. I also pay attention to vapour barriers and insulation where required and I’m tidy with detailing at joints and edges. There’s a practical story behind my approach. At [Previous Company] we faced a tight deadline on a shop fit where the bulkheads and walls needed precise planking and seamless joints. I kept to a clear sequence, patched nail holes, and used a second coat where needed to avoid touch ups later. The team finished on time and the finish held up well under daily foot traffic, with significantly improved joint continuity and straight lines. I’m available for a chat about how I can slot into your team at [Company Name]. I can start within a week and bring a straightforward, steady approach to plastering tasks and finishing. Kind regards, [Your Name]
