Hi all.

Probably the wrong place to post this but I am wondering how I find work plastering on a site? I've been domestic plastering for the last twelve months and I'd like to try some mindless skimming on board for a bit for the experience but not being from a trades background I've never even been on a proper building site, only small sites where I've done jobs for builders etc.

Any tips? I realise I need the CSCS thing but what's after that? Do I ring Barrett homes and ask them if they've got a bit of work to do?!?!

I'm in Sussex by the way and happy to travel. Currently do a circa 80 mile round trip for work each day.

I doubt you'd you get a start with that background. Thing is theres no time to get up to speed I've seen gangs come on site in the morning and punted off site by lunch time. If its what you want to do it may be an idea to see if you could find a gang thats looking for a labourer.

Well gentlemen I thank you for your informative replies. I've heard it's s**t work but I would like the experience so if it's s**t and I make s**t money for a week it's not the end of the world is it?

Still not really got any pointers on where to start yet. If anyone has a suggestion do let me know...

Try smart partitions they got tons your way
 
And to poster, if i was lookin on site, id ring big firms ask if any price work goin off them.ideally youd get in direct so no middle man taking their cut, but it cuts a lot the hassle out too. Just turn up, work go home get paid.
