What is a Margin Trowel?

A margin trowel is a small hand tool designed for work in smaller or more awkward areas where larger plastering trowels might not be suitable. They’re a great addition to the toolbox – some benefits of a margin trowel may include:

  • Easy access to corners and hard-to-reach areas.
  • Greater control for detailed plastering and repair work.
  • Available in a range of blade sizes to suit different applications.

At P1 Plastering Superstore, we offer a range of plastering tools and trowels to suit different requirements. Order your margin trowel with free UK delivery when you spend over £100 on hand tools, or choose next working day delivery when you order before 3pm

What is a Margin Trowel Used For?

A margin trowel is commonly used for applying, spreading and finishing plaster, filler or mortar in areas where larger trowels are difficult to use. They’re ideal for corners, edges, patch repairs and other detailed plastering tasks that require greater precision.

Short Margin Trowels vs Long Margin Trowels

The best margin trowel size depends on the type of work you’re carrying out and the level of control you need. We offer a range of sizes from trusted brands such as NELA.

  • Shorter margin trowels are suited to more detailed work, such as working in smaller spaces or more awkward areas.
  • Longer margin trowels are useful where a longer blade can help access or cover areas more efficiently.
