labour taking it easy done n dusted

Cheers Rigsby, I'll get that rend aid on next day or two to start couching on Monday... exciting stuff !!!!!

Good evening all, My first mono job has come up! I did the weber course last year december with a mate, I've gone through their literature they gave us on the day but I don't seem to be able to find any info on this; I've just removed 50m2 s/c render from 4 year old extention on a bungalow...

I rock up to my domestic jobs in my wedding suit and tie looking like I own the world. My trowles are all in my modified briefcase (old trunk from boarding school) Customers think I'm the mutts nuts.

Cassi have a look at www.mammothworkware.co.uk they sell a brand called Black Lader, German brand I think, I have a few pairs cost between £50 - £90pair, stitching comes with a guarantee.

Need a labourer for part time work, starting next week (1-3 days per week). Must have experience in basics: removing wall paper, uni bonding, sticking beads, over boarding, washing buckets, fetching water, tiding work area/van. Call Matt 07506749284 mathew.rampf@sky.com

tvp30, i use the basic and the plus quite often, if i use thermo+ i make sure the walls are flat & free from snots, dust & then unibon and use the foam adhesive(very strong bond), the thermo basic can be dabeddabed on. There are more methods of fixing but these are what i use and well.

Ha Ha my customer thought he'd do me a massive favour by painting 3 walls I have to skim with thistle bond-it. One of them over wall paper. Did'nt have the heart to tell him so i'll see if it takes a skim tomorrow. Exciting hey, cool stuff like this hardly ever happens to me!!!!

Thank you Nisus, I could not have said it better. The reason it has s/c and gypsum is because a couple of cowboys tackled the job in the late 80's and the shop has been empty ever since. You will all be happy to know the whole building, inside and out is getting the TLC she once had 600 years ago.

Have you heard of DG 27.

I'm doing a 3 coat lime job onto stone walls(internal), in the past a doorway has been bricked up and plastered over with s/c and multi, very hard to hack off. Can I prime this with thistle bond-it and do my lime coats on that. Anyone Know. Cheers

Cheers render systems, that is exactly the price I came to, Lab only. I've quoted on proper lime render/3 coats, yes. Why can I only find suppliers down south. £65/per pallet delivery charge. None in the midlands.

Cheers Flynnyman.

Hi, I'm pricing up a 3 coat lime job onto stone, internal on a listed property. I usually give a day rate on this type of work, the customer has asked for a square metre price( 50 square meters) The lime will be pre mixed so no fussing about with stripping hair and adding to mix. But I'll...

Both.

Strange all this no work stuff. I'm trying to get spreads on 2 domestic jobs around Warwickshire area, posted the jobs on 'plasterers looking for plasterers' section and nothing.(except beddy on week-ends) The work is there chaps, just got to go and get it and stop crying. Easy to sit back and...

Anyone else had problems with the Ever build sprayfoam guns, mine always leaks out the sides and bottom where the can screws into the gun. I've had it replaced once and the same crap happens.:RpS_cursing: I've bought a bond-it gun at £25, lets hope that works better.

Hi Stevo, you stoped smoking yet.:RpS_crying:

Danny is correct, SEO is not easy to get right and a lot of web design companies don't get it right/can't get it right. I don't pay a single penny for my sites high ranking, I paid a fair price for the design and SEO and I made the money back 3 times over on my first job from the website. It...

Ive seen in the ever build catalogue that they do a 25kg bag, have not used it so don't know. I always mix up a batch of refactory cement: 6 sharp sand, 1 cement, 1 hydrated lime and do a sticky mix(little water), chuck in some glass fibre if you want. People have diffenent methods so find one...

Is this the one, I put two disc ceiling roses on that a few days later. It came out a beauty.

Thats my work bench, an old fire door heavy as hell.oh and steve_cov on stilts on that ceiling with crack.

This is a 36 piece ceiling rose I did a couple of weeks ago. :RpS_scared:

Yip, the top coat was smooth and no fibres showing, I was pretty stumped.

He did'nt mean anything. He was a mistake, really. You heard of that though, glass fibre in multi?

Had a spread helping me on a job today, plastering a dodgy diy'ers attempt at boarding on battons. Springy as hell. Anyway told the diy'er that the boards are pretty flexable and the plaster is not. He said no probs just plaster the room... cool. My spread goes to his van and brings back some...
