Plastering Licensing & Rules in Australian Capital Territory
Important regulations and resources to help you hire with confidence in Australian Capital Territory.
No standalone plastering licence
ACT has not yet introduced a separate trade licence for plasterers. Plastering work is generally carried out under a builder licence. The government is working on a trade licensing scheme to extend licensing to trades including plastering, tiling and glazing.
Builder licence for building work
Construction work involving plastering, rendering or wall linings as part of building work requires an ACT builder licence. Licences are classed A, B, C, or D, with specific qualification and experience requirements.
Comply with AS/NZS 2589 and AS 4773
Plasterers must install gypsum linings and renders in accordance with AS/NZS 2589:2017 for gypsum linings and AS 4773 for masonry in small buildings. Follow manufacturer specifications and National Construction Code requirements.
White Card and WHS duties
Workers must hold general construction induction (White Card) training and follow WHS regulations. Provide personal protective equipment, control dust, manage manual handling, and install edge protection when working at heights.
Building approvals and permits
Major plastering and rendering projects that alter structural elements or external appearance may require development approval or building certification. Consult a building certifier and ensure compliance with energy-efficiency and bushfire requirements.
Insurance and environmental care
Maintain public liability and workers compensation insurance, implement dust and noise control, and recycle or safely dispose of gypsum off-cuts and waste materials.
