K rend

[Jonah Fresh]

Hi
I have a gable end to k rend it's being applied by hand and wondered what is best to use to split it as I'll have to do it in two.
So expansion bead or a stop bead?
Thanks

How bigs the gable ?

Get someone in to spray it for you, few on here offer that service

A gable this time of year that size by hand... I'd give that a miss it will be skinning over as soon as your getting it in the wall

 

[Jonah Fresh]

Thanks I was looking at it thinking i should give it a miss.
Is splitting it in two not a good idea ?

It's feasible with plenty of bodies on it with an expansion bead, but a machine gang will have it done in a straight forward day, where as will take 3 of you 2 days and they will be long days at that.

 

[Jonah Fresh]

OK that's helped me decide.
Thanks for the input.

Find a gang to do it, put your 10% on top, make a days wage just for over seeing it.

Take 2 hours max to spray ! Will take 2 or 3 times as long by hand carrying buckets up Scaff etc
