    Time off

    We try to get new builds render and set the inside. Then you can always have something to do if the weathers shite! Not always that easy though. I tend to up my price for rendering in winter to allow for some of the downtime/sitting in the van !

    If you hard a cscs card but its green one

    I've only got a green card because I refuse to pay 3k for an nvq. Their not worth the paper they're written on imo... Although I understand some sites now demand a gold card to put on ? this isn't like other trades (sparky/plumber) it's all based on experience and knack, I've sacked handfuls...

    Got a new toy today!!

    I am yet to find anything made by ox that seems of any quality. Everything from levels to buckets seem to be cheap and poorly made. Get what you pay for usually, and its all cheap! Although apparently Kia make some good cars so what do I know ? :)

    Primer and top coat in a day

    Yeah today. Look again years down the line If you get any bits of base coat that are thicker e.g by the beads etc then it can grin through with time. I would always use a primer for the sake of a few quid. They spec it for a reason

    Primer and top coat in a day

    Definitely use primer. I've seen a disaster before where they didn't use any and sprayed it on. It had shadows and lines grinning through within a year !

    Sooooo much easier with another spread!!!

    Always work with another lad, I could probably mak more on my own, but it's lonely and boring. You need someone to pick on :) When we do a big job and my other lads are all with us it is a right scream. Unless you're the brunt of the jokes haha

    Paying employee's

    if he has got a room to do that day, which is a day's work, it doesn't matter if he puts on at 10am as long as it's finished and is quality. That's my opinion. A day's work is a day's work. If I came onsite to be moaned at at 8.30 for not putting on by then I'd tell you to poke it and go for a...

    And

    Nothing fucks me off more than having the last hit of a job on and the client then asks for "just put a bit on there for me" for something not related to our agreement when you've already cleaned down the buckets and got the van loaded ready to go. I point blank refuse these days, the boy gets...

    Makita fan .....

    Ive got a makita heated jacket for rendering in the winter. It's the b*ll***s!! I use the 10v batteries in it tho because the normal 18v ones are a bit uncomfortable. I hate the bloody cold!

    Thistle universal onecoat

    It's decent for chases/patching. Can go on nice and thick, sponge it up and trowel up with the fat. Beats having to bond out and then skim imo.. That being said, I rarely use it because I'm too lazy/tight and have loads of half bags of multi in my lockup, some are so old they go off before you...

    Firmacell boards

    I've had a bad experience which is why I asked. We followed everything on manufacturers spec and some walls are fine and others either crazied on us or the joints cracked.. Fermacell say that the joints should be filled with their compound before skimming apparently but not all joints were...

    large ceiling

    Oh is that how to do a join.... Right. Never look as good as all in one set in my opinion. When the light catches it you might still see a shadow, depends how well you can patch in, I'd always do it in one go, 4 good lads should eat that up and in the pub like plaster man said ! To each...
