Sorry I was referring to bathroom mats, tiles,adhesives,grout and plumbing consumables ...I know timber has flown up in price

Copper has near doubled in price in 12 months but the rest of that comment I'd take with a pinch of salt.

So spark or gas engineer says that gas pipe or wiring is below standard but I'll do it below standard just because you want it a bit cheaper as long as you sign this form to say if it blows up or electrocutes someone I'm not liable ?? I know they are different trades but principle is the same as...

Scrape,tight coat bonding, sbr then tile

Lots of past examples been to court and lost trying to argue this. Customer will play soft and younwill be deemed the professional to donthe right thing in a customers house ...or walk away

It may be just saying legally.you can't hide behind the im not taking responsibility for f**k ups if it goes wrong clause

You and I both know that won't stand up in court. Your the competent person.if it's in doubt it should be re boarded. Ps I'd just sheet up and take my chances

Hope it works well for.you...you've persevered when the nay sayers mocked you... Now can we change the record please .all posts dominated by it..

Amazing how your the bad guy even tho that prep is disgraceful...dont ye just love customers

There will be lots of brown envelopes flying around for council contracts.

Thought the same Plastering 101

If your in people's houses doing paid jobs you should know this.. I can't do it all for you

Bonding will shrink back a few mm when dry....upto.you but mite show through wallpaper?? I usually bond and easifill to top off ..sand back later

I think your an electrician

Yes I used drywall mixed with bonding...set in about 30 mins ...top with easifill

Ye used in the other day after new sockets installed at home...used the 60 version and it's was still unsandable the following day at about 10mm...although it was cold in the room

You've also got to factor in a lot of housing associations or council plasterers arnt very good or if they are they soon develope the one coat/ that'll do mentality because of the expectations of the people who judge your work...a lotnof them will be multi skilled tilers,joiner etc...

Move house

Why is it these people never return to thank everyone for picking our brains....beyond rude
