Can someone explain floating, what, how and where? Thanks alot.

When it comes to plastering a bathroom, if bath, toilet etc is all in fitted places. How would i approach plastering the full walls. Do i remove the bath to laster the full wall or do I just go up to the bath...?

Thanks for the responses End of the day rads are a pain in the ars*.... If all your jobs in a week have rads on the wall, you'd have to call in a plumber every time...as most walls have rads. Can you really skim just up behind the rad, wouldn't be a smooth surface then though?

Where do plasterers stand when it comes to dealing with radiators, is it the plasterers job to remove? For them then to plaster the wall? Please advise

Fair enough, thanks. Yeh I'm doing abit of work with a plasterer for abit of experience. Just wondering whether these courses are beneficial... Do plasterers get more work from being qualified with NVQ's and City and Guilds. Ta.

Hi All, I am currently looking at plastering courses in the north west, could people please advise whether 3 & 4 day courses are ideal at learning to become a plasterer...has anyone else followed this path, to then become a full-time plasterer etc... Thanks
