You rate the sparky ones chris ?you got one ? An electrician freind of mine as a bit of sparky kit and says it does the job more than well. But they look so flimsey that what puts me off them.

Best to start of with a podger mate honestly.They do a good job for a tenner theyl last ages.Cheap drills are a waste of time,at least buy a good drill second hand but not a cheap s**t drill works out more expensive long term.Once you earnt a few quid and able to buy a decnt drill keep the...

Exterior grade pva or exterior grade stabalising solution.You should NEVER use normal grade pva as there is a high risk render will fall of wall on reactivation due to moisture cold damp conditions years or months later.

Multi trade is the way forward mate and advertise as such offering anything you capable of doing to a good standard. Even then,there will be no guarantees of work for you.If you have regular work and your happy doing it maybe as well to wait untill things pick up in the building trade before...

We rarely talk anyway mate to be honest.Its more of a bickering shouting relationship we have.lol

Baryed i could give you thurs and friday next week if it will help you out. Is an hr drive for me each way so would have to be worth my while.

Or a mild case of rising damp maybe ?

I never ask for money up front either.I do think it looks unprofessional,also you can always make money on materials. I do however always ask for payment terms to be settled in stages (stage payments) if it over £1000 labour or £500 materials unless it someone ive worked for many times or...

He did say STUPID questions !!! When you get idots on here in all seriousness asking what plaster for what background what ratio of pva to seal a wall.What bead to use on a corner.How do i overboard a ceiling cus i usually just rip them down.What mix ratio for a scrath coat s/c render. Would...

Try not to get it to that unworkable stage. But get a zipper with a stanley balde in it and get it off.

Yes mate it does. I have nothing against them and use them also.Just to flatten i polish with steel trowel cus they can leave very faint scratches.

No diffenrece in power output.But safety aspect ?? 110v shock or 240 ouch. You dont need a 3.5kw tranny to power a single drill mixer a small one will do and they weigh **** all. For safety reasons and safety reasons only all my kit is on 110v all lights drills mixers chargers radios the lot.

when hes in a sponging frenzy anything and everything gets the sponge lol.

have there uses mate like the sponges but not really needed are they.There just a fad a must have plasters accessaARY.

Spunks mate is fu c k i n g twisted beyond repair and love to see em mate.Anyhow ..... But his knowlege of sponging women and finnish plaster is second to none !!!

Stainless does defo seem to drag a little in my opinion like i said before but there easy to use and last forever.Carbon does give a better finish mate. I use both but cus im not plastering every day .day in day out cus i do other trades also the carbon seems to rust and need work on the blade...

spunks is they guy to ask mate.Hes swears buy them. Pm him with a few nude photos of your missus and hell be most appriative ;)

I dont use mine that often only if a hit is going off quick or im doing large areas etc, but i noticed that they clogg up and are no use use less really wet regulary which means you have to clean them as they clog and this scratches the surface rather than lightly ruffing it over.constant...

I triple my price on MOST small /medium insurance quotes becuase.... 1.often they come to nothing and your being used to give a quote. 2.Some companies ive worked for will make you wait 30 days or longer for payment i once waited 90 days for payment from a local council. 3.Every aspect of...

Yes agreed mate good for artex also. There a really good bit of kit but for best results on reskims i reckons finnish the traditional way.

£9.50 a m2 is about right for a one off job i.e a 12 m2 ceiling skim only = £120 ish. But for 150 m2 or max 3 days work (more likely 2 days) cus you say lots of corners and beading etc at £10. m2 x 150 m2 = £1500 this is TOO MUCH !!!! M2 rate has to be dependant of run of meters and...

Ive been using the plastic for about 3 -4 month now. They do scratch easily so i finnish with steel trowel. How i use them is below. steel trowel to put on 2 coats. Flatten immediately with plastic as it leaves no lines even when wet. Il then go and do more walls or clean up and come back give...

Yeah but havent you got to mix them with mineral water ? To get best results

Hep Spunks i bet youd love a nice fireman labourer ??

If im on stilts on my own i can mix 1 bag a time as thats all i can lift onto the high spotboard.If it a big ceiling ill just make 2 or 3 mixes etc.Depends how strong you are though i guess there guys that can easy lift 200 kilos onto a spot and guys that can only lift 40 kilos.

i cant lift then on my own you need two people.Also when 2 bags in there nearly overflowing so it needs to lifted level or youl lose half of it down your leg. If im on my own as i often am i mix up 1.5 bags a time so i can move it around

I agree Beddy

I hate painting i do it but hate it more than plastering.

I woudnt consider myself that fast either mate.Ive worked with guys that bang a room on in one go and guys that bang 3 walls on a day.
