Never seen them bigger than 3m when I have to join beads to make them longer I always dab them and use a straight edge so they run flush

Chimneys are grey areas where damp company's are involved most will not give guarantees on them because of the soot contamination on the brick work. Usually we just tank with slurry then wash plastering sand 2 coat leave for a week and skim.

Ey up mate.

I have never bothered with all these new trowels all I use are 13 and 11 inch carbon trowels. Used them style trowels for past 20 years and never had a problem so don't see the point in changing.

I always use board finish on s&c and limelite hi impact when going over limelite renovating plaster.

Hello.

Most of the guys who specialize in one aspect have been plasterers for years and can do all the things you list to a high standard. Don't be a one trick pony.

I wouldn't use a speed skim for backing coats or render just a rule

It's not worth turning up if u ain't doing a house a day

Deep throat I mean head first for me:RpS_thumbup:

Don't ask me at the end of a cash job "who do I make the cheque out to"

I stopped my company doing guaranteed DPC jobs 2 years ago like u say load ov b*ll***s. Plus most jobs I went on I found a reason for the damp walls and It wasn't rising damp

Sounds like the best way 2 me

I mainly work on my own now, used to have a good labourer he is now a plasterer went on his own after 5 years selfish git said he couldn't live on £20 a day

I used to use triton and bio kill crown when I was giving guarantees out, you just had to sign up as 1 of their contactors and you could only use their materials and pay them a percentage of the job.

I hate sparks, joiners and plumbers

You should know if your confident enough to skim it again just keep in mind it could pull in faster over fresh plaster. Maybe just mist coat it then you can see all the bits you need to fill.

If your struggling to get it you could use S&C that's mainly all I use on Damp jobs.

Don't you just love home owners hacking off, plaster left in all internals big lumps left all over the wall:RpS_cursing:

Cheers me duck. Forest :RpS_thumbsup:
