is £200 a good price

[TommyGun1]

Hi
I'm having my backyard wall 8ft x 40ft rendered the builder as asked me to get all the material then he will remove all the paint of the wall then apply the first coat of render then apply pva then apply a finished coat on top, but I asked if its better to first apply the pva then render what to you guys recommend? Is £200 a good price?

Blokes a cowboy mate. It won't stick to paint and it's at least a 2 day job. Where did he do his course ?

 

[lucius]

This has to be wind up, price far to low and PVA is out of the question.

 

[dmplastering]

As above. Price far too cheap and pva over 1st coat??? Wtf

 

[owls]

did he price the job up from his horse?

 

[Jace]

same as above everything he has said is wrong, wats the reason for it being re rendered?? just paint flakeing or blown and cracked

 

[Dansouthcoast84]

200quid? U wldnt get that scabled off and primed for that.

 

[brimplas1]

what a joke !!!!! lol

 

[TommyGun1]

he says he will remove the paint first

 

[TommyGun1]

he seems polish

 

[keithuk]

[asb]

what does it mean by scabled off and primed sorry i'm new

 

[irish_spread]

What part of Warsaw you living in Tommy ?

 

[bubbles65]

£200!!!! He's ripping you off :RpS_cursing:

Where do you live mate?

 

[hector]

i think tommygun1 is the builder mentioned ,one and the same person, sounds like a young lad who has just finished his course,and is looking for advice how to put it on,and what price range he should be aiming for, if not it is a bricklayer who is winding us up.

 

[Dansouthcoast84]

scabbled is a machine you can use to reove the paint, and primed would be a sbr cement mix (bonding agent)

200quid!!!!!!!!! Let him do it mate. Then watch out for the proverbial "s**t on ure doorstep"as is the common phrase on the forum just now:RpS_biggrin:This must be a spoof

I think you are 100% correct. Who tells this sort of information? If I were to go and see the job id say yes I can do it and discuss the finish, not the whole process. That's my secret

Its not d*m**o rendering the wall is it??????????

 

[henry]

Why do not get a couple of more prices and listen to what others have to say.:RpS_thumbup:

Good point Henry, I'm sure he'll get it cheaper than that :RpS_thumbup:

 

[JBPlasteringmcr]

I think it's a courser trying to find out how much to charge

 

[NPS]

just go round to his house mate, sh1t on his door step and say thanks but no thanks im having it mosaic tile instead for a tenna

 

[Jace]

u supply the gear and ill put one coat of render over the flakey paint for 200 notes:RpS_thumbsup:

 

[mayti]

as he got a magic sponge:RpS_scared:

 

[morgan]

got to be a wind up

 

[nickelarse]

i think its a fair price. go for it

 

[stolen stilton]

you' re being way over charged on that. I'll come and do it myself for £60 but I'll bring my own sand thanks as you are new to all this and will probably get the wrong sand. The kids have got loads of pva in their craft box so I'll bring some of that just to make sure the job is done right first time. Where you at mate? If it's more than 300 miles away from me I'll have to give it a miss otherwise there'll be no profit after diesel etc

 

[bodplasterer]

In all fairness its only 28.8m2

 

[irish_spread]

At a. Fiver a m2 that should be £140.40 labour only so £200 is very dear

 

[bodplasterer]

My thoughts exactly Irish.

Mind you, if that is not including VAT it works out £196.56 so that would be fairly on the nose. Offer him £168.08 (split the difference) and everyones happy

 

[irish_spread]

I feel like rendersystems with all this analysis :RpS_biggrin:

 

[rocky4]

at what depth will the 2 coats be at the maxium?
