Plaster & Drywall Materials Price List — 2026 | ramo.co.il

When choosing plaster materials, it's important to understand the differences between types. White gypsum is ideal for small repairs and cracks, lime finish like Tambor is designed for a high-quality smooth finishing coat on walls and ceilings, and concrete repair mortars like Sika Rep are engineered for restoring damaged concrete, especially over corroded rebar. Pay attention to package size — 18-25 liter/kg bags suit large projects, while smaller quantities are better for spot repairs.

A common mistake is using regular gypsum to repair concrete — this can lead to delamination within a short time. Another mistake is skipping the interglass mesh or plaster mesh — these reinforce the plaster layer and prevent future cracking. Always choose a mesh suitable for your plaster type and surface area.

In Israel, the Mediterranean climate with dry summer heat and winter rains demands durable, flexible materials. German-style corner beads extend corner life and prevent chipping. For exterior work, choose water-resistant materials. Sika products meet international standards and are trusted in building and renovation projects across the country.

Before starting work, clean the surface of dust, oil, and loose parts. For concrete repair — use Sika Rep according to manufacturer instructions. For regular plaster work, lightly wet the wall before applying gypsum — this improves adhesion. Prepare a measured amount based on the work area.

Mix the material according to the manufacturer's instructions. Apply a thin first coat, lay mesh if required, then apply the finishing coat. For corners — install German corner beads before plastering to get a sharp, durable angle. After initial drying, smooth with a plastering tool.

After full drying (24-48 hours) you can paint. Never expose gypsum to moisture before it's fully dry. When working with Sika Rep — wear gloves and safety glasses. Store sealed bags in a dry, cool place.
