Just received email from HMRC explaining it all. 4th grant takes into account 2019-2020

I would say yes as they are taxable and need to be declared In April 2020-21 tax return. are HMRC going to base 5th grant on April 2020-21 tax return or April 19-April 2020 ? Not everyone will have their tax return done this April. Maybe that will be a stipulation too? the 4th grant won’t be...

I have got the metabo. It’s pretty good, not as powerful as a dewalt. Fine for domestic work I would say but probably not as good for site work. I favour my metabo over my refina mega mixer to be honest if that helps. lovely feel to it , light weight, nice handle and trigger. Nice height to to...

Forgot to mention. Handles a max of two bags of multi at a time. Anymore and really struggles

I have a metabo cordless. Battery’s last about 4/5 bags of multi I would say. Got mine for £250 including 2 batteries. For the money not bad, very convenient for small domestics and flats. Also handy for mixing outside as can put back in van to avoid it going missing. not the most powerful but...

I currently have a compartment upright on one side of the van which I slide plasterboards into straight from trolley nice a easy when raining. Even a strip of fascia board to slide board in and out. Works well but reduces space in the van. Problem with this is weight on one side of van too...

Fair point especially when carrying a sharp trowel. Wouldn’t want them breaking. Thanks john at least something you said has been helpful lol

Sorry to rain on your parade but WorkTall stilts Have stolen your idea. Shame you didn’t get a paintent on your product

Thanks for taking time to reply but ................. No thanks john

Hi guys Has anyone got a pair of Marshalltown or dura stilts for sale?? Thanks Matt

Think it’s pretty much just knaufs equivalent to gypprime. It’s soo bloody hard to get hold of and if they dropped the price I think more spreads would be inclined to use it.

Have you used the knauf high suction plaster primer Vince?

The will just be taxed on it in April 2021. Still a free hand out as such I know and Annoying that people will take advantage but that’s up to them and their moral compass.

A proper adult thread on the plasterers forum! That never happens! Nice for a change.

Maybe a Stupid question Does anyone know if this scheme carries on till October like furlough does!for those who are employed? Or does the government intend to not support self employed sole trader type business’s after June/July? As they should be back working following social distancing...

Thanks vincey !

what wattage are those bad boys Vince?

Look alright. Look easier then larger stilts to slip off feet when mixing up between gauges etc. I think I will get a pair always handy to have in van lol even if it only gets used on certain height ceilings

About as helpful as the selfscanners at Asda! But appreciate the time taken to type four letters

Either that or a rolling set.

Thanks Paul

Thanks helpful as ever!

Have recently picked up a nice nick on my finishing trowel so would use this just to lay on and new carbon to finish with and s*p*r*lex/ media for final polish. I have other finishing trowels which Ive broken...

Are you actually willing to travel or a wind up? Sibsey to far?

Hi I like to cut the hole and make it into a nice clean rectangle or square. Depending on where joist is , I then I put battern across the ends and middle to fix plasterboard to. Cut new plaster board to size and then screw up. I then score a box around the new patch of about 30mm- 40mm with a...
