HI Al,
I'm after some advice, just had an insurance job done which included re plastering the chimney breast. The "plasterer" (Turns out he was really a painter and decorator) added PVA to the plaster mix??
Apparently he repainted the Chimney Breast without the plaster drying properly and didnt apply a mist coat- Needless to say the plaster and paint finishing was terrible and the paint started pealing after a day or so.
He made such a C$$P job of it that we had to get in another plasterer to reskim properly who had not heard of adding PVA directly to the plaster mix.
Does anyone know of this and what are the long term consequences if any - Don't want problems with plaster / paintwork in the future etc.
Thanks in advance...
