Suction ? you are skimming same day as float aren't you ?

I guess after skimming boards for years skimming hardwall may seem a tad different

Feather edge, float 15 - 20 bags in morning , skim in afternoon dead easy

saw more than 20 bags put on and finnished same day depends how thick ur coating the blockwork.and how good the block work is.aye very hard work but can be done.stay a bit later if needed.

What's an average day f and s on site?

 

[spunky]

30m mate on a half decent job, 40m plus and its pushing the amount you can skim

 

[SpankySouthport]

30m2 personally steady pace

Have no idea or can't remember , rarely do metre price work, normally a block price or day work.

so how much per block then

 

[johniosaif]

Some of our customers get a price at the end of the job, they know me well and its a trust thing. I find m squared work too hard now, I don't touch site or new work unless its a regular customer, the rates out there are from years ago in my mind.

 

[Gibbo]

I usually do about 50m2 a day f+s
