The capital packs a third of the country's population into Georgian terraces, red-brick Victorian suburbs, sprawling 20th-century estates and a wave of new apartments. Space is tight, period stock is old, and planning rules are strict.

Local demand: Attic conversions, side-return and rear extensions, full rewires and energy retrofits dominate — Dublin's older housing and high property values make upgrading rather than moving the norm.

What Dublin homeowners hire plasterers for

Plasterers create the smooth, paint-ready surfaces inside your home and the weatherproof render outside. Internally they skim over old walls or new plasterboard; externally they apply sand-and-cement or modern silicone renders. It's a genuine skill — a good plasterer leaves a flat, blemish-free finish that makes every other trade's work look better.
