The fact your on here asking people how to put boards onto a house

Remind me then how you learnt how to do it and become an expert in the field of EWI?

I think your getting me mixed up with someone else.
I've been plastering & rendering for 10 years now, I haven't just completed a 6 week course.
I've been rendering 7 months of the year solid the past 3years so the only thing I have no experience in is the boards and fixing, but being able to dri-line I have some idea and it's not a million miles away.
The fact that I'm offering a 10 year warranty with this work direct from Parex shows that it will be done at least a little better than you think.

I can't recall calling myself an EWI Specialist?
I can recall stating its my first job and asking for advice from people in the know, who have happily helped me. So that brings me to the conclusion your just some jumped up prick who feels threatened by my willingness to pick something up just like you did and probably get better than you at it.

I'd love to hear your reply please make my day?

I love the fact your offering a parex Warranty
Imagine a system supplier offering you a bit of paper saying "well done it's been checked by somebody who knows f**k all about render and it's passed "


Mate I'm not having a go at you but it's s laugh you are asking how to fit boards after coating them for a years.


Better than me yeah could you could be but your the reason my trade papers mean f**k all now.

Do you have trade papers ?

why do your trade papers mean f..k all ? Aren't we suppose to offer advice to others on this forum.
I've been plastering for years and had never fitted a board until 6 years ago
I had to ask somebody before I fitted them.
And I offer a PAREX guarentee with my work.
So does that make me a cowboy?

The warranty means nothing to me, means everything to the customer, it's called business. Same as when you buy a car and you get a warranty, same as a tele, same as a boiler, same as a holiday etc etc.





Mate I'm not having a go at you but it's s laugh you are asking how to fit boards after coating them for a years.

Come again? I've never gone over or fitted them before so not a clue what your on about! Ewi is a new aspect of plastering/rendering and I do all aspects of plastering/rendering so I want to learn how to do it.


Better than me yeah could you could be but your the reason my trade papers mean f**k all now.


How is that then? If I'm better than you without having the trade papers you have must make me even more special?!



Do you have trade papers ?

Funnily enough I do and I'll tell you the truth. On paper I'm level 2 NVQ qualified at EWI.
How did I get that qualification you ask?
I got it by skimming a patch in a ceiling, courtesy of a company who are paid a nice bonus by the government to pass ANYONE!
Is this my fault? No.
Why would anyone turn down a free qualification?

As said this was my first job and I'm no expert, I want to learn and I've asked for advice, advice on how people PREFER to fix not how TO fix.

Getting a guide and asking how it's actually are different hence why I ask.

I will pick up tips and learn as I go.
Explain why is wrong if I'm doing it right?

Lastly EWI is no more than a gimmick that is not as specialist as you may think. From what I done I found it to be pretty straight forward and I was going over uneven stone work.

You still haven't mentioned how you LEART and became a 'specialist'in EWI? I would love to know. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I'd love to know aswell how I'm 'f**k**g' 'your' trade up?
I still think your a prick aswell btw just so we're clear!

Your rips under the soffit is too small
And you have no dog legs L shapes legs under the cills
Major fail tbh


I done a 4 year apprenticeship mate
24 year timeserved
 
the kids got a point, and i can't be arsed with another argument @Jgreenplastering if you want to take it down that route, lets just get that clear.

If you have any questions regarding an EWI system that your fitting to spec, here is not the place to ask, ring Parex and speak to your rep and ask him how he wants it fitting, it doesn't matter what anyone says on here, they aren't guaranteeing it

kind of similar to having a problem with your new ritmo, you have a problem and ask on here you will get multiple answers, ring Ian or Les they will tell you straight up and probably be right.

i have had questions when doing said works and have always found the manufacturers more than helpful when i didn't quite understand something, they want a good job as much as you do.

regarding the windows you should stay 300mm from any corner of any windows with any joints

Mate im not having a go at the guy but dont say its a gimmick when looking at his boarding if i was the rep for parex i would not guarantee f**k all he has done.

there is 3 major fails on his boarding i can see so far.

But what do i know

nothing to do with me mate, i am Qualified EWI NVQ 2 and used the work for a fairly decent sized EWI and mono company, learnt most but still if doing a job with a guarantee to spec id have the reps on site as much as possible, we priced a Mapei EWI job up the other month and i needed support, no shame in it.

any decent sized job id board then get it checked, then base.

I'm sure @Jgreenplastering will sort it, but maybe swallow a bit of pride and get Parex involved a bit more, they are coming to see me for 20m2 of mono in a few weeks so can't see getting them out for this a problem.

Christ you've just told me a few things I've done wrong which I now know how to over come on my next one. Thanks for the advice that's all I asked for in the first place.
It doesn't take 4years to learn those mistakes I made though surely.
The rendering aspect is a lot harder to learn in my opinion and that didn't take me
4 years.

I didn't know about the mistakes I've made but you now you told me I'll correct them
On the next job.
Anything else?

If this jobs fails within my guarantee I'll happily rectify at my costs. I price jobs to make profit not wages so when things go wrong I'll sort them. Doubt a lot of other will.

Like I said in the first place I'm no expert but I'll learn.

Mate 4 years roofing/roughcasting/plasterer its what we scots do for some reason.
24 years under my belt and it gets sore each year.


What im saying is dont ask on here advice half the c**ts on here have no clue what they are talking about ask the reps mate thats what they get paid for.

I was going to be weatherby rep for scotland but you dont have enough teeth to really make a difference

All the best with work mate but looking at they pics you have a while to go yet

Argument?
If you want to have your say expect a reply.

I've only ever asked for advice I never claimed to be an expert I made it clear was my first job.
As for reps, he's been out I've asked loads of questions and if they want to check it in stages. He's said he will visit and the end.

I've gone through the spec and there's no mention of what Marty has said I've done wrong hence why I've done it wrong.

I'm happy to hold my hands up, I'll put it right if it's cracks etc.

What I've asked from the start is not how to do things but how people who do the work prefer to do it! There's a difference.

I can guarantee most blokes wouldn't put pictures up here even if they knew they'd done stuff right. I'll post more pics of the finish tomorrow when I've scrapped it.

Many stress points you putting in a window mate ?
 
The only advice I can give to anyone is try your best if your not sure ask and if you don't get the answer go with what you think.
EWI on domestic houses is not rocket science. And if we were all true full have we all followed the spec as we should have.
I've cheated with boarding but a few extra stress patches never hurt anyone.
The poor fella was only after some help so he could do the job properly.
There are a couple of small mistakes but let's look at the finished pictures and see how he finishes the job.
Coz that's what counts.

You created this whole argument on the misconception that I claimed to be a specialist asking how to do a job!!!

For the last time I asked how people PREFERRED to fix board not HOW to fix and I stated it was my FIRST job and I wasn't an EXPERT!

The reason I ask people for advice on here is because people on here do jobs day in day out have more experience and knowledge of day to day tasks and would know how to do things in a way that is acceptable and not cutting corners.
The reps have a guide/code to follow the applicators know the best/quickest way to do these.
