these corses are shite mate . especially 2 weekers . you need to be spreading for 6 months day in day out and you should be putting at least 3 bags a set and you should be doing 3 sets a day . your just one of these people who thinks they can do a couple of weeks course and go put a few cards...
1 and a half bags a set . by your your quick arnt you ..... think Not you need to go back to collage mate . us proper plasterers can put at least 3 - 4 at a push 5 bags a guage thats 90 sq metres a day at least . wen we are in a 2 + 1 squad we put a guage of 6 bags . then another 6 then another...

Never seen the job , joiner just told me the crack on the phone last nite . so he picked me up...

Keep your heating off , give walls or ceiling good coat of unibond 3 to 1 .
then Bonding coat walls or ceiling if artex you can then let the bonding coat tac up a bit then skim ontop of the bonding coat . JOB DONE ... IF your new to the job then you might be better of just putting the bonding...
Your price was way too high . dos`nt matter how thick the artex is , you should always use Pva then Bonding Coat . Get a grip mate , your new to the game , Keep your price`s right (£80) cash per day . Get the experiance first i.e Skimming 6 months on a daily basis then you can charge decent...
Keep with driving . im 35 and me back is f**k*d . Need op to sort it out on the Temmies at moment for pain , I`LL swop jobs withyou plus giv me a extra £450 on top of your wage and we got a deal
Sorry mate i dont agree with those crappy 2 week course`s or 6 week course`s . How the hell can someone who has only done a fast track plastering course charge £100 a day or £80 a day . You need to be on site skimming day after day for at least 6months to be able to call yourself a skimmer ...
Dont just pva the ceiling make sure you use BONDING COAT first cos if you just use plaster , when the plaster dries it will shrink and you will proberly still see the shape of the artex . the Bonding Coat gets the ceiling flat again the you put the skim on that . Its best to put the Bonding Coat...
Me and my mate will do the job no problem at all . the only problem their is is that we live in the North East . But willing to travel anywere as long as their is a cheep bed & breakfast and the rates are good . Here`s My Number 07909 785533 or 01740 622615 just ask for Michael
Hi mate if your skimming over paint then you have to score the walls , like if you were doing a browning wall then skin you have to score the browning before you plaster . Well it`s the same if your skimming over paint especially a silk paint or satin paint . Ehen the plaster has blown it will...
Dont piss about with STILTS they are SHITE mate . Just make one out of a scaffold board to suit your height , making sure it is sturdy enough , and that should do . Why waste the money on stilts or hireing gear . Unles you are putting the Bill on to your costemer
