I hope it Master Plaster!

See his van driving about. He’s been slagging me off apparently! Never met the bloke. He’s been telling people they shouldn’t hire me on account of me being a girl lol. He’s never seen my work. Well I’ve seen his and he needs to work on his feathering in! :ROFLMAO:

Well, look at it this way - he's doing you an accidental favour - only sexist punters will avoid you for being female, and do you really want to work for sexists, anyway?

And for those punters who aren't sexist, they'll probably avoid him because they don't like him being sexist, so he'll lose some jobs which you might pick up.

Very true. The customers who told me said they didn’t like his attitude and he cracked out the plaster from his tub on the lawn and left it there apparently

He's based in Crewe. Won't mention any names yet, not until situation sorted out. But, from what I hear after doing a bit of reasearch, I'm not the only one in this situation :muyenojado:

Paid him £1700 and that's only part of it. He's not getting the rest! Some of it is for putting down floors in 2 rooms, but the majority of it is for the plastering... I feel like an idiot.

take him to small claims court, take photographs, and get 2 independent plasterers opinions,
do not pay him any more, if he gets threatning call police

We used to use a cleaned out 40gal barrel from pickle factory, no whisk, nope……just my grandads old walking cane………the barrel had two rope handles and our labourer used to carry on his shoulder up a flimsy ladder to the third floor of the bungalow …….the finest of skim delivered with a smile, on time, first time, every time ……they don’t make them like that now……..

That’s not a rhino flexi tub, The handles are still a bit flimsy on them ones though mate. Get the refina mixing buckets, you won’t regret it. (y)
