HMRC have since done a U-turn and now made Covid tests tax exempt. Insane that they even dreamed this up in the first place https://www.accountancydaily.co/hmrc-drops-benefit-kind-charge-covid-19-tests

It didn’t look like anyone on the forum was interested, so I put the plaster on FaceBook market place at my cost price this morning. (Whilst I like the sentiment of donating it to a local plasterer and helping a small business, the reality is that I haven’t worked during lockdown either and...

Hi all, As I mentioned in another thread, on 06/04 I placed orders for 10 bags MultiFinish with both Build 4 Less and Insulation Shop. Not as cheap as Wickes. Delivery was £25 Insulation Shop and £30 Build4Less. Total for 10 bags incl delivery was £114.36 and £107.04 respectively. I was able...

Wickes is worse than useless imo. At the start of lockdown, when Travis Perkins closed shop overnight and dropped a lot of folk in the dwang, I placed an order (24/3) with Wickes for multi-finish, plaster board and other items. They delivered everything bar the multi finish 06/04. No delivery...

Just had a great call with Brimstone, who had sent me an e-mail yesterday evening. I had placed 2 orders at the beginning of lockdown with 2 different suppliers and they have now confirmed delivery dates of mid and end June. I was going to cancel these, but Brimstone has said he knows plasterers...

Hi Rossi. No, I waited for about 5 hours and my message still had to be approved by moderation, so I put it on eBay at 8pm Tuesday night starting at £1. A builder contacted me yesterday morning and he drove up from HindHead to collect. I had moved my plaster indoors the day before, but the 15...

Item no longer available

I bought a palette of Carlite Finish so I could finish my house renovation. A plasterer that my builder knows said he would take any excess. He’s now reneged on this. So I have 15 bags of 25kg Carlite Finish that I have available. With palette delivery, I paid £11.97 per bag. Just looking to...

Hi all, I’m in the midst of renovating my home. When I found out that DryWallToolsDirect were getting in Carlite from Ireland, my builder phoned around his network to see who wanted plaster and if it was worth getting a palette. One of the chaps (who was the most interested) has pulled out so...

My Carlite arrived yesterday and my builder started using it today. He has waxed lyrical about it. It takes longer to set, which is perfect in the current hot climate. The finish is unbelievably smooth. He was also able to complete more plastering than he would with multi-finish so he recons...

Hi, Drywall Tools Direct in Warwick has ordered in Carlite from Ireland. There stock arrived last last week and I received my order today. Cheers

Hi all. I’m in the midst of a house renovation, which has been fun during lockdown. By chance I came across Dry Wall Direct in Warwick. They ordered in Carlite Finish and Ultra Finish which came in last Thursday. I received my order today. (My builder will start using tomorrow) Please get the...
