just did a job exactly the same as this... sbr and cement powder slurry rollerd onto the old render and scratch over with a 4.1 waterproofed mix...go over the slurry b4 it dries tho ( within 15 mins )... leave a few days then topcoat with 5.1.1 and plasticiser .. holds like s**t to a blanket!!!

that customer hu lets there crazy dog run riot wen ur tring to get ur tools in and out u have to keep fighting the bloody thing with ur bucket trowell so he dont run out the door..customer is jus sat on sofa festering in cigaretts and coffee and doesnt even tell the damm dog to get outa the way

gd job he wasnt in the lloyds refurb our town has just had then.sounds a rite muppppppettt...if he wanted to be a quicker spread he shud be cupping 2 hands at least and throwing haha

200- 250 a day between u both. if hes just labouring start him at 50 a day and then go up as he starts skimming hardwalling dabbing etc... if they can drive then meet em at the job,if not and hes decent pick him up

other annoying things... that area of render that keeps falling out over and over agen and just wen u think uv got it sussed it falls out as ur about to leave off site and all ur gear has been cleaned up... that other tradesman watever muppet it is who keeps walking past and putting hand marks...

domestic jobs gettin ur dust sheet stuck under the doors wen going in or out with a hawk full or something occupying ur hands.or u try to move ur hopop along with ur foot while u have hawk and trowel in hands and the legs just buckle and it falls over..missing the deal wen ur cross trowling a...

not skimming i kno, but hate wen u lay a load of tiles on a friday like i did last friday onli to come in after the weekend and see the dopey customer has gone and walked over them 2 early wen i specifically told them not to,,,resulting in all the corners dipping and leaving lips in places.and...

like his quotes.. "bit of an achey arm but its ok" sed to the boss il take all day on one ceiling " he sed no worries ,he seems to have forgotten his cleaning down brush theres more round the walls than the on the ceiling... wata funny funny man think iv wet my panties a lil bit

hope hes not on a meter price...

just always thought that if uv got the mixer out u may aswell render the walls in 2 coat the same day and set them the next day rather than have to clear up muck from the same place twice..but like its been sed many a times each to there own,everyone learnt different ways and methods

so ur rendering the walls twice aswell? theres coving on this job so f word the ceili9ng lines

thing is once u tell a customer theyve got 28 days u kno there jus guna wait until the last day or untill u chase them up on it,,,never kno u may even forget all about that 100 skim set u did 3 weeks ago lol

that explains y i cudnt understand ur time scale comment earlier .iv onli ever done that if the thickness is too great to get over in 2 coats at the same time.wen goling on red old brick with old lime morter dust on it u kno its guna dry as u put it on so ur second coat will stick and rule off...

cant say id wana wait 28 days for money once ive finished a job.its bad enuff wen the selfish gits make u wait a few days after completion

u never one coat? meaning u scratch one day then second coat the next? always worked with spreads hu put a ruff coat on then once its pulled in a bit jus second coat it out to ur frames beads or wateva thickness u need ,then rule off and float? wats ur technique ?
