Hi,

I feel like the quote for my exterior plastering might be a bit too expensive... Or are the prices offered reasonable? The house is being built in a small village in Rhineland-Palatinate. It measures 10 x 10 m (33 x 33 ft) with a gable roof and a 1.50 m (5 ft) knee wall. The walls are made of pumice stone blocks (Bisotherm).

I'll summarize the items:

Scaffolding
236 m² (2,540 sq ft) * €6.00 = €1,416.00
Construction site setup
€280.00
Contact coat
48.41 m² (521 sq ft) * €8.50 = €411.51
Base coat according to DIN 18550 Knauf Super Lupp
220.06 m² (2,369 sq ft) * €14.50 = €3,190.87
Reinforcement base coat
220.06 m² (2,369 sq ft) * €13.85 = €3,047.83
Primer coat
220.06 m² (2,369 sq ft) * €2.60 = €571.16
Top coat, scratch render 3 mm (1/8 in) PG I white
220.06 m² (2,369 sq ft) * €13.90 = €3,058.83
Mesh
Flat rate €550.00
Equalizing coat
220.06 m² (2,369 sq ft) * €9.95
Plaster beads
66.47 linear meters (218 ft) * €8.20 = €545.05
Stop beads
49.87 linear meters (164 ft) * €6.50 = €324.16

So we're looking at around €19,000.

I just compared it with my last project, and your feeling is not misleading. Just get a second quote, and you will probably be surprised yourself. Or it will prove to be true. I can only speak for TH.
