Think the previous owners have used this upstairs in the master bed when I stripped the paper it looked like orange peel. Thought it was an oil based paint like zinsser so I ran over it with a drywall sander Thinking the paint might not take properly‍♂️

Straight back to the brick or leave a cavity?

Did you do this on your own house? Or know if it’s resolved the issue? Just a little concerned moisture could form between the pir and brick wall, run down and cause damp at floor level.

Thanks going to look into iwi. House isn’t massive but could lose 70mm either side of it helped with efficiency of the house and reduce the possibility of condensation. Just be worried about moisture between the pir and brick wall as there won’t be any ventilation.

Seen these paints another brand claiming to do the same. Have you experience with the paint or just a recommendation? Seems to good to be true to me?‍♂️

Hi after a bit of advise I want to try and insulate the downstairs external walls of my Victorian house it has solid wall construction brick exterior which we get a bit of condensation on in the winter months not a lot just the odd bit behind a side board and storage box. I’m thinking maybe...

Called pegboard usually has a thin laminate on one side.

Just ordered me a set of these can’t wa for them to arrive

Aye they were replaced them

Iv only done one my own. jet washed It down, sbr, Full meshed the scratch and doubled up on the joints then top coated s&c

Can't you just put a flat (L shaped) tile trim on then board with 6mm board and skim you'll get a nice clean line between different finishes.

Just blue grit it and skim next day done loads for a office fit out company no come backs yet and these toilets get abused everyday by desk monkeys. No offence @Danny. Just make sure all the tiles are sound n not loose.

A couple of sheets of Corex is good.

Yep brick hammer for me good as new

Just got home to a delivery of the above. Thanks Danny love a freebie

I think they have their place defo not for laying on with just a final trowel Iv found thy get rid of blebs quite well and leave the finish too shiny Iv got the foam back one tho so might be abit different without the foam.

No need for a hop up tho.

The wall was pre made off site and was dense polystyrene with like a thin coat render finish so the letters where formed before it came to site.

Couple of walls I did a few months back. The lettering not was a pain in the arse!

Surprise cup n hat. Nice one [emoji106]

I'd even pay an extra 5p for the plastic bag.

Prize came today just like to say a big thank you. Didn't expect this much stuff. Top banana [emoji106]

Leave the plastic trowel in the van and buy a super flex, refina is my preference. Others are a available

Feeling abit vulnerable now you have my address lol. Cheers guys been a good season Gona earn my money back next year!!!

I just bag it up in rubble sacks put round back of garage then sneak afew in skips on my next job/jobs. Never leave any waste on domestic work

Sanding it down is a fuurker its sets solid best go with 40 n save time on sanding!!

@barryed

Just a couple of hand fulls is enough. I usually lay on flatten let it pull in then 2nd coat

You don't need the 40 if you've got the 60 really same breaker just a bigger cutter suppose 40 is less bulky if your only cutting small tiles. Iv got a ts 60+ and that does fine with some tough porcelain tiles Iv cut recently. Tx 700 would do as well just depends on what jobs your doin. I havnt...

String line just hammer nails into mortar line thru no need for a level. Can always use a small drill bit to drill holes in mortar instead of trying to hammer nails straight in

I didn't skim it! I cut round the edge re boarded n then skimmed it the was probly 20 coats of gloss paint on the ceiling probly only thing holding it up!!

Got a call from a fitter I do some work for can you come n skim a ceiling for me there's a bit of patching in to do!!!

They must be "winging" it using other people's photos!!

Had mine about a year great for final trowel leaves a nice finish need to keep some wet n dry handy tho coz the get scratched really easily

done

Sound mate will have to give them a go [emoji106]

I'll have to have a look ont training day mate iv had macron bits @ £30 that do bout 20-30 holes n then are no good!!

What you using for porcelain tiles? The Bosch multi drill bits are a great alternative to the expensive diamond bits get up to 10 holes on Porcelin tile n many more on ceramic. And only afew £ from screwfix.

Do you stick from right to left or left to right?

Ask them to send you the floor levelling system as a trial see if it's any good

Was looking at these today in topps not convinced either can see them creation voids. Like you say I'd butter back to make sure.

I like to try n use insulation boards (if the customer will pay) even on timber as it speeds up heating times even at just 6mm makes a big difference, reflects heat upwards. Used 10mm in my kitchen stuck em down and used screws with washers instead of ply used the matting but prefer the loose wire.

Fancied something abit different bout halfway thru I thought to myself why the fook didn't I just do brick bond instead. Getting corners to line up was a pain!

my kitchen tiles I don't use wet cutter much as I find them messy usually just use small grinder wi a tile cutting disc I find em to be better at doing the more awkward cuts

Got rubi ts 60 plus brilliant cutter best tilling cutter iv used.

Dishwasher works a treat.

Sprained my AC joint last week n it's agony

As long as it dries fully before tilling and is primed with a suitable primer 1st should be fine to tile over
