Plastering advice please

[Abdel]

My husband and I are currently going through our project and have come to the stage for the plastering. However we have ended up with a bumpy and strange finish. The builders tell us that they are going to fill it but to us it seems a lot of work?
Both of us are not plasterers or builders so just require some advice please? so we understand what we can say.

I have attached some photos

it’s every wall in the house

Something doesn't add up, here.

This is a complete wind up or your down a cave……..

 

[Abdel]

What do you think has happened? The plaster has gone into new boards and it’s ended up like this. How can this be rectified? Advice would be great as my husband and I are devastated

Here are some more photos? It’s every single wall

What’s your advice? We are deviated and don’t really know where to go from this point? Thank you

I don't even know how they've achieved that tbh

I'd say morons with flexis.

I don't even think a plaziflex could leave it so bumby tbh

That is terrible... how they have achieved that is incredible....

I would be getting the builders back and then get 3 quotes from plasterers to put it rright and then get legal on them

Turn the lights off for a start.
Where do you go from here?
Down to the lake I fear!

Looks like it been bagged?

 

[Stewie03]

Needs plastering again

 

[MakeItSmooth]

Needs hacking-off and then plastering again

Catapult.

 

[ChrispyUK]

I could get a better finish with a shovel

 

[smoother09]

A good decorator will get that!

Ask @essexandy who he uses!

 

[Lastlaff]

You poor souls. Someone can’t float and use a straightedge.

 

[Stewie03]

Must of been a tight budget for that shite

That's a rare talent.

 

[Tinytom]

I would guess that the plasterer let the builder down and he thought, how hard can it be??
and had a bash hisself
The only way forward it’s a reskim by a plasterer

 

[Nash plastering]

Looks like close up pics of the moon! Terrible. As stated above needs re skimming. Could be poor trowel technique or improper use of plastic trowels used too soon? Get another reputable plasterer in, don’t let the builder pull the wool over your eyes.

 

[MakeItSmooth]

Looks like they levelled it with a tape measure instead of a straight edge.

 

[MakeItSmooth]

Abdel, I'm still not entirely convinced this isn't a wind-up, but may I ask what country you're in? (relevant in terms of plastering technique and expectations)

 

[Nicm]

It’s a very rough job made worse by the positioning of the lights.

 

[Andytekno]

Looks to me like a DiY job that’s gone wrong….terribly wrong.

I've seen property's like this in Spain!! If this is in the uk on to plasterboard you've got big problems!! Best you can do is get a plasterer (another one) to feather edge bonding over it and reskim it!!!

Yeah, hence my question about which country it's in, but that was totally ignored. I doubt it's the UK.

Either that or some chancer's sprayed it on and walked away without using a spat or trowel on it, and that seems extremely unlikely.


Looking at how bloody attrocious that surface is, my best guess would be that the plaster was applied using a tyrolean flicker :

Looks like @Casper and @smoother09 working together and there's no way the fekkun builder didn't clock that either
