Last year was hot we was working on a big hallway the customers were out we had to take tops of he come home I said sorry mate we had to take tops of he said I no its like a freak show
I did get a awesome finish with the mt a plummer said to me once when I worked on his house he said I've been pluming for 42 years and I can't tell you how many plasterers I've come across but I've never seen a finish as good as that his wife said all he's done is rub you're walls she said if...

The offer of a cup of tea when you price is usually used to get a cheap quote too and the bacon butty on arrival of the job line I even had a guy try sell me his second hand trainers when it was time to pay before he put them on e bay fair play I've heard it all and...
Today I've had about 5 calls yesterday I've heard every bulkshit line ever chated to get price down yesterday a guy said I had you're number of so and so I heard you're cheap they said you're cheap I said or yea he said I'm only joking
Just a quick skim it needs i don't no if it needs plastering or skimming its only a small ceiling 3mtr square it won't take long you should be done in a hour if you do this for a good price we will have you do the rest of the house we are doing it room by room it only needs a thin skim just a...

The problem is most customers don't no what they are looking at and most people think the more shinny and smooth the better its silly I've had people say all sorts I want it so shiny i see my face in it etc feeling you're walls up what's this yea love its a water mark will it show when I paint

I remember when I was starting my mate just started not long before but could get it semi OK I was labouring for a construction company my mate said put plasterboard up in my garden tac it to my fence and keep skimming it lolz
Best one I had he paid 1800 for a plastering course absolutely messed up one ceiling in his house then I did the rest in my time I have seen only 1 guy that had me in to do a ceiling that was too big for him but he did all walls and small ceiling I was impressed but it is very rare even after 15...
