    First day back at work for a month FFS

    Is there any difference/benefit to using multi rather than board finish on new boards or is it just that’s what your developer buys?

    Is it just me?!

    Are you actually that dense?! I didn’t plaster the ruddy wall! I got a s**t plastering job because the plasterer was s**t... not rocket science is it. Not my fault the bellend can’t slap muck on the wall and flatten it properly. Plastering is a skill, never said it wasn’t. Seems you’re just a...

    That’d still be £100k a year. Like I said, plasterer, not highly skilled worker like scientist, programmer, doctor. Thanks for your input though

    I sense you’re hurting inside that’s why you’re hurting others on the outside. It’s ok to be vulnerable

    Technically it was the plasterer who f**k*d it, I had to unfuck it. Came here to ask for advice on how to avoid it happening again.

    Are you all butt hurt with everybody else because you’re a knuckle dragging mug who’ll spend the rest of his life staring at walls. Don’t worry Ritchtea, I’m not angry with you

    And you’re an idiot because it was two separate guys at two different intervals. Back under your rock

    Is it just me?!

    Thanks for the offer but that's a bit steep. £15\m2 @ 330m = £4950. Say it takes 7 days = £700ish per day... with all due respect, you're a plasterer not a doctor. Thats £182,700 a year if you work 5 days a week

    Yes mate I agree, I hear it a lot. We're not like Persimmon and that lot, just small time Father and Son outfit, we do all the other work ourselves except bricks and skim. Hard to find decent trades for site work.

    Is it just me?!

    Yes mate, as I said, I'm not a plasterer. If someone tells you that he can put 50m on and another says 100, who's talking out their arse? If the plastering is s**t, it's the plasterers fault. Just like if the brick work's s**t, it's the brickies fault. Not rocket science

    Is it just me?!

    haha, no he didn't. The other guy laid it on so thin in places you could see the scrim and board. The contractor wanted £8m2 so don't know what the spread was getting. I'd assume about £6.

    Happy New Year lads a ladies! Could do with a bit of help and draw on the immense knowledge base of some pros. I've got a development I'm managing in Brum, new builds, fairly straight forward. I've had 2 separate plasterers in, both have been sh1te. Both promised the world and neither...

    PVA onto plasterboard before plastering

    Hi guys, I'm building 2 houses at the moment and got them boarded before lockdown but not plastered. My plasterer is on site now and says the accoustic boards on the ceiling need sealing with water and PVA mix as the colour has faded on the board and the board has dried out. Is this a real...
