Its a cuttle fish bone the mines full of em, big dinosaur bones too, and big gold nuggets.

Great day at BG today, thanks for sorting the trip Danny, where you taking us next?

What year did you start at collage?

Did you go to Shirecliffe Cassie?

It don't make you a better plasterer, but blokes that hav'nt been to collage miss out on some of the theory.

Depends how hard the stone, etc is, its not a good idea to put hard render on soft stone or brick or a substrate that needs to breath, but also consider that the softer the render is the quicker it will weather.

Can't you sand it back to give a flat finish?

That tin roofs your problem to much movement! looks like you'll ave to turf it:RpS_thumbsup:

Natural and wibrant colours:RpS_lol:, how much per roll?

How come it dint work Bod, were the bricks porous or leaky gutter/fall pipe or something?

There should be no need for any sanding or filling:huh:, what lights are you using?

Unless the wall is soaked your waisting time and money using sbr, if you realy need too give it a coat of sand and cement with an integral waterproofer, then dab it with thermaline boards, you'll only need to use mechanical fixings in area's where, in the event of a fire heat could blow the...

Ex RAC transit, not been thrashed, good service history and you can pretend to be a pikey and collect scrap an pallets when the works quiet, I bought my first RAC tranny a few years ago, it came with FSH and a glove box full of receipts, when I added them up it totaled £7000, :RpS_scared: u...

Eyup Kev, I have heard (on this site) paper mashy is a good alternative to gypsum, let us know how get on, :RpS_thumbup:

Bunch of thicko's, speak for yourself, bell end,:flapper:

so give it some more pva an skim it while that's still tacky :RpS_thumbup:

A tar brush is like the one described above :RpS_laugh:

Its one of those round headed brushes that they have in most builders merchants that you thought WTF's that for, like a tar brush,

I just can't help thinkin that these plastic tools are owt but gimicky type shite :RpS_confused:.

No PVA's will break under damp freezing conditions (which is why the are shagged) use SBR with neat cement mixed up like emulsion paint and render onto this whilst wet. Get a Turks head brush from you merchant they're the best for slappin it on. :RpS_thumbup:

PVA, sealer and adhesive, 1st coat seals to control suction, 2nd coat bonds the finish to the sealed substrate, skimming on dry PVA's like skimming on glass.

(If), from what I'm looking at in your photo is the bonding plaster on top of your artex I would say its his fault because it looks like there's no mechanical key, if its the bonding coat underneath your artex and the original finishing plaster has "blown" then its not his fault but the bloke...

Depends if your left or right handed, i'm keggy handed so skim right to left I should rough on left to right but don't, the latter being it does not matter if you leave lines with the heel of your trowel on backing plaster cos you rule em out, where on finish it does.

Bang a load on rule off level as you go, fill out any hollows, rule off, piece o pi55, the bonus system put an end to dot an screed. Imagine using the dot an screed system with a one coat plastering machine, :RpS_scared:

Fantastic mate, how about some tips on concrete repair, Ive a gable end to underpin next munf wots your thoughts,advice on that.

I used to work wi a geordie joiner and he came out wi things like that, " Like a bill posters bucket, all wet an sloppy" :RpS_lol:.

Are you Carol Vorderman?

New ceiling level with the tops of your windows etc, downlights, insulation above, 250- 300mm deep, and radiators all along the outer wall below the frames, cheap compromise and make a nice room with plenty of light :RpS_wink:.

And the arris on those angles is covered in plop:RpS_blushing:

There was a shortage a few years ago, caused I think by kilns out use for maintenance work, non of the merchants round us had any finish, think it was in the 90's tho not the 80's

I love two coat, that new hardwall formula is great for ploughing on, the other stuff was like spreading chewing gum but still much better than bonding coat, I cant see this making a massive comeback tho, wheres the labour to do it, eastern Europe?

that walls set so hardly troweling eh, he's polishing which is like pissing in bed awake, :RpS_confused:

Even less quarries and natural seams, all the white gypsum is imported for boards adhesive and other products, I was taught that only BG mined pink gypsum and that its pink because of shrimp deposits, is that true?, o wise one's

What about makin a hole in Sarah Beeny, that girls got a proper top set,:flapper: they don't call me a spread for nowt.

Wots this plastic trowel shite? are you working with the Chuckle brothers

Are you asking this because the house is rendered already! your existing window frames are not designed to take the weight of render, so they need to be removed a new frame of something like 3x2 timber, WPB ply, building paper then expanded metal lath to render onto. Insulate the cavity block up...

Me too, plunger, plodger, dibbler, motorbike, whatever you wanna call em, keep one in my van, quicker than pissin around with a mixer and tranny+leads, power, then washing up, for only a bucket of so, youre gauge should last a bit longer too deano, the gear doe's not aerate as much mixed by hand.

You could always join the circus, for added effect why not take the pins from the door hinges on yer van

I have problems goin off to quickly too :RpS_crying:

Your bedroom floor joists sit on the internal wall and if there are no wall ties between inner and outer skin of brick you may well have movement on the inside but no evidence of it on the outside, :flapper:

Just bear in mind some of your angles may open up when the roof timbers dry out and settle in!

No but by the sound of things there's movement in the thermalites, you need to address this first or it will always crack, has the plaster blown from above/below the crack or is it bonded to the blocks, if its bonded you have movement, subsidence, if it sounds hollow between the plaster and the...

Why Henry, you use your tongue better than a $20 whore.

Try the bedrooms next mate, that's where all the big cracks are at:RpS_thumbsup:, and after 20+ years that joy your talking of turns into" why foook didn't I listen at school".

oh no you can't

Unless you've a rake of ceilings to skim its not worth wearing stilts :-0,

Sponge/plaster :RpS_lol:, there's no way anyone fanny'ing around with a sponge can apply more finish than with a trowel!

Me homosexual, if you give me a big kiss i'll tell you, wehay, gypsums not all I spread!
