Dot and dab window reveal

[scottie5]

But surely you're only paid to plaster board not thin air?
I just plaster it as they are on at least one wall to make the point.
Well unless I'd boarded it myself

I know exactly what you mean mate.
I have tried to explain to them that the best material for filling big gaps like that in plastererboard is with plastererboard.
which can be easily achieved by cutting it right the first time.

When there's a gap wider than the scrim winds me up, and I know i should just lash it on and balls to them.

But it's just not in my nature.

Solid measure thank god, and I get to keep all the cut outs for my private work

I think next time you should dab mini reveals in and pop a little cill board in for good measure. Bead up and skim.

I know exactly what you mean Scottie but these arseholes will just keep take, take, taking unless you make a stand.
We all make mistakes that others have to get over but that's just taking the piss.
I actually made a fuckup of a row of boxes similar to that in your earlier post, I just cut some tiny bound edged stops and dabbed them in.

Am I better off doing reveal with an inch over lap first or wall with an inch over lap witch is best and more accurate
