    k rend and spray plasters

    Hi Guys I was quoted about £8500 - £9000 for new G4 and gen etc As I'm still undecided about that mono I got asked to do, I didn't know you could hire a machine... where from? p.s officially the jobs mine but might only want to do as a one off. The rates seem ok..

    What size mesh do you use, how does it stick.... Would I mesh, then rend aid or vice versa. (Who are L&D ?)

    Monocouche

    Defo- I'm stressing about it, Its like saying "that looks easy I could do that" but how often is it that easy... I think I will be kicking myself if I don't give it a go, and I'm sure there will be mistakes but I can learn from them. I need a couple of guys with real mono experience to give me...

    Monocouche

    I totally agree with you, but this year has been a weird one, in the past I would have just pasted it on, but work is tight, on my last job I had to supply and fit the loft insulation (the most shocking job of my life) but I had to do it to win the Dry Lining works. Although this opportunity...

    That old chesnut, Dry Linings not a trade. ;D I do all other aspects of plastering except plastering... Suspended Ceilings, Partitions, Dot & dab, Tacking, Taping & Jointing, Coving. I used to do a bit of skimming years ago but prefered Dry Lining. But for £80 per m2 I'll try it in the nude!!

Washington, Tyne & Wear. Any ideas what to charge I've heard the Weber...
