welcome along Joe, you will get all sorts of answers to this question. Spreads who regularly do lots of price work will generally work to the 2 big hits or 3 smaller hits a day rule. It depends on access, anlges, start time, ceilining/wall height, prepwork etc. A well organised spread should be comfortable with 3 hits a day ranging from 1-4 bags per hit depending on their own capabilities

nothing to prove or lie about , always pushed ourselves to the limit on price , while working away from home ,always 4 spreads so if 2 spreads can not lay on 100 plus in a spread , on straight walls , well they should stick to day workBollococks. A pallet of skim and some in a day.
No one does that even spraying.
it all depends on the job, but as a rule on my own knocking up as well i expect to put at least 100 sq mtr a day ,not always possible espec on house bashing , most ive put on in a 2 man gang is 440 plus in a day , but perfect job ,no ceilings just long straight walls
like ive said pal, no need to lie or bullshit , we did it, i do a 3 spread day when at home ,always 4 spreads when away or its not worth going2 man gang........ Hmmmmm
4 spread should smash 400/500m a day on a perfect job with ease.
yea,i am, well only been pulled twice in 25 years pal , plus 18 years constantly on price , so ive proved it can be done as prob loads of other plasterers have ,but it does depend on the right job conditionsAre you referring to a set as a spread? If so you maybe right.
I maintain that 2 men can't do 400m a day to any kind of standard
That's near on 40 bags of finish ...... not f@@king likely , 20 bags each nah not in my lifetime ,20 between 2 is just about plausible over a long dayAre you referring to a set as a spread? If so you maybe right.

maybe for you, you saying you cant do a 50 sq mtr hit on your own on straight walls no windows , ,at 4 spreads in a day x 2 men it can be doneThat's near on 40 bags of finish ...... not f@@king likely , 20 bags each nah not in my lifetime ,20 between 2 is just about plausible over a long day
on that job we did , its not b*ll***s pal some of us can do it , and like ive said right job conditions depending , them jobs very rarely come up again , we never had breaks always worked through , unless you go for it you never know what your capable of , we do 2. 3 bed houses in 5 days is that more plausable for youI can do it , I have a few years plastering experience my self , but 4 times a day is bollox at that pace ,that's 4 ten bag sets your talking bollox simple as , you may do it once you certainly wouldn't do it regular , I've heard it all before with 30 year site experience and I have seen some fast spreads but none have thrown stuff on at that rate
Is this suppose to mean something?on that job we did , its not b*ll***s pal some of us can do it , and like ive said right job conditions depending , them jobs very rarely come up again , we never had breaks always worked through , unless you go for it you never know what your capable of , we do 2. 3 bed houses in 5 days is that more plausable for you
no pal im not , but were all different big hits doesnt mean rough work as some one mentioned, ive worked along side lads who layed more on than i ever could , i wish i could still do them big hits , but then the price gets cut when you do , so yea i did do it but happy getting my 100 a day in now if i canIs this suppose to mean something?
im doing this as well , im glad you are doing this too but your not impressing me !
whitehaven marra :RpS_biggrin:@richspread...........Where are you based marra?
wish i had the house pal, that job the prices were 1 50 sq mtr thats why we pushed our selvesWhy are people saying it's not possible for @richspread to do 50m2 per hit, and to have done 4 hits a day?
Perhaps if you people sorted your act out put a bit more on, you would have your own 500k house instead of having to just work in them.
I never said the word rough, and I know it can be done ,and your correct the more you do they lower the prices , but 400 mtrs2 a day is pushing it beyond belief , and that's my opinion until I see with my own eyes someone doubling my teams output ill take it with a pinch of salt:RpS_unsure:no pal im not , but were all different big hits doesnt mean rough work as some one mentioned, ive worked along side lads who layed more on than i ever could , i wish i could still do them big hits , but then the price gets cut when you do , so yea i did do it but happy getting my 100 a day in now if i can
