Wife would have preferred me getting the two veg off at the same time.

Bill the Blabber is all piss and wind, he's the one that starts the fight then fucus off when it looks like he might get hit.

No thanks I got the snip after my first child. One's more than enough for me couldn't think of anything worse having a house full of kids.

Unibond in scuttle in back of van?

Well the answer isn't a fear mongering one dimensional plain of thought person like yourself leading the way or coming up with solutions. I'm by no means in favour of diverse multicultural communities but we are all responsible for a sense of cooperation with one another's beliefs. I'm sure...

The Marvellous one used to use that song for his ring walk. The good old days.

Pugmama it's shite! Be honest now and admit you've done it yourself. At least its just the cupboard so please don't make the career change FFS.

I bet the majority of plaster on that fire breast wall was shot and had no key before the fire got fitted.

Plastering round the double socket looks below par. As for the rest of your complaint no plasterer worth his salt would agree to plaster those areas unless the obstructions were removed beforehand. Would be more cost effective for kitchen fitter to box/ cabnet them areas.

Always put some away for a rainy day. Used it on a couple of occasions, takes the worry out of life's unexpected moments. You should be entitled to benefits though as you've contributed over the years, make enquiries.

It’s because the oil is going to run out way before they allude it is. And there land is worth f**k all without it.

Free after small shop!

Let John use it for a day or two while your away…… He might re-organise it for you.

Forgot he’s blanked M A L T M A N

Harrygeorge15 AKA *******

Think it’s pot luck on the batch that’s been made. Mine only lasted about 4 years before the front and rear rivets went, gutted because it was lovely to use. But others that have had them say they’ve lasted double that.

No need for S&C, it’ll take more time for curing before plastering. Float and set job done.

I thought it looked white and smelled like Knauf’s.

Nit picking, should have painted beforehand in my opinion and touched up afterwards. But you will live and learn.

If you do it yourself, I guarantee that you’ll regret it.

I’m left handed and wipe my arse with me right, only other thing I do with my right is pick up screws and shake hands!

As soon as I seen that I would have pointed out all the faults to the customer and said I’m not putting my name to that.

Gorilla glue or CT1

Algeeman mentioned that a while ago and I tried it, best handle I’ve used to date.

I’ve got a nela carbon 13” that I’ve had for a year or so after I noticed MT carbon rivets were looking a bit iffy. Used it at start of set and found it stiffer. Didn’t like it at first but persisted as I’m tight and glad I did as after breaking in (longer than MT) I find it’s better on the...

No mate domestics, stilts are a time saver for me on decent size ceilings. No up and down or time consuming setting up scaffold just put my tub on a hope up one off I go. Have two sets of stilts 15-23” and 24-40” can comfortably reach 3.2m ceilings anything bigger boss tower.

Hop ups for walls, stilts for ceilings.

It’s your property and time is not as much a factor so a decent quality PVA at a ratio of 5 water 1 PVA and give it as many coats as needed until the background stops sucking it in. Then normal 3 PVA 1 water until tackey. Alternatively to save time you can use SBR in nearly the same manner and...

Like everyone says get a plasterer, but if your insistent on going solo prep is critical for your timing! A good couple of coats of sealing PVA until it stops drawing then normal coat of PVA. Either bonding/multi coat or thicker multi coat to dub out and flatten then once that picks up plaster...

All I want to know is where do babies come from?

Neither of those quotes are likely to cover the cost of what you’ve started plasterer, plumber and tiling. If you want to keep cost as low as possible don’t remove bath and sink you’ll only add more problems and costs but the toilet and rad will have to come out.

You need roofers forum.

Clean it first then as Stevio said mould paint it. Thread closed.

Not everyone, he’s obviously a c**t!

I always work to the standards I’ve been taught, and the only time I change is when there’s an amendment to spec. If anything I most often than not over engineer as prefer the belt and braces approach. Folk that cut corners Dabbing will no doubt cut corners elsewhere.

Looking at the splash marks on the wall it looks like the floor has been screeded after the plastering. Height of screed could have bridged dpc or Touching Bottom of plasterboards. Wet dabs grinning through are 9/10 times due to wet/damp thermalight blockwork. Also did they cover the cavities...

Look like the tile used on bay windows etc. I’d swerve them and buy new ones as they’ll be less brittle and you’re going to need tough ones for the solar panels.

Move to a newer well insulated house.

I agree that they won’t go back down to what they were but do think the merchants totally took the piss and hiked the too high and it’s starting to bite them in the arse now. Will get worse next year when the pinch starts to filter people’s finances down.

Said the same to my neighbour over road that he’d be better off starting work late spring next year as weather better and price of materials have a better chance of coming down. He never listened and when roof was stripped off it pissed down for three days. IMPATIENCE is the word your looking for.

Two of my pet hates, ladders and trestles. Hop-ups, stilts and if you need the extra height scaffold tower.

No way that was done by a competent plasterer. If the same person boarded it then that’s probably the reason it’s hairline cracking, could be a number of reasons incorrectly bonded/tacked etc.

Never bothered with Halloween when I was a kid but did penny for the Guy. Used to love bonfire night!

Started with a 13” then played around with a few sizes then settled for 14” for a good few years. Now full circle and back on a 13” won’t change again now.

I thought exactly the same, don’t let them work on a job together f**k all will get done.

He doesn’t know what a dropper post is, he’s back in the 90’s bike tech. No offence Caster but anyone that fits a pump to their frame isn’t a real MTBer.

Or a f**k**g plumber

I had the same yesterday on a boarded ceiling two coats fresh second mix. Wouldn’t have said it felt greasy but tore in quite a few places, I had to use plenty of water to get a finish (I prefer to use as little as possible) and found that it set a lot quicker than normal (not that that’s a bad...

Work to live not live to work!

What about the Welshman?
