    Which paper layers to remove before applying bonding agent?

    Plaster can crack if you take wallpaper off with a steamer do you get where I’m going with this it’s over plasterboard it’s probably turned to mush if you’re not lucky Plasterboard has a core and a layer of paper either side of it was lined I understand it’s tricky to get lining paper off this...

    you’ve took the layer of paper off he needs to re board it and that’s if the plasterboard isn’t f**k*d because you took a steamer to it

    Newly skimmed Artex ceilings all showing long cracks (see pictures) - seeking advice on expectations/workmanship

    The plasterers given you a price You accepted that price Unless it’s falling off the ceiling he hasn’t done a lot wrong Like I said have a poke and a prod It’s a fuxking crack it could be a straight joint

    Need to give it a poke and a prod really to find out what’s happened If it’s a joint crack it’s just filler biggest worry is the plaster is going to come away it’s a good price so don’t beat yourself or the plasterer up

    Airless spray plastering

    And does anyone know labour rates and supply rates pm me if you want too it’s not like plasterers have to be scared of competition theres none around lol To me it sounds like builders can get a phase 5 finish without having to employ s**t spreads but at the same time sounds like there paying for it

    Airless spray plastering

    Is this the new thing? Sorry someone posted something about Manchester and how every things done this way there I think? Any infos great and tbh I can’t see the hype unless it’s a labour shortage it needs to to be taped first ?
