Hello boys. I'm Ray from Plaistow. I am not a plasterer but a General Builder. My usual plasterer started to quote me stupid money so I needed to find a new one.I just wanted to ask how many of you are real plasterers? I have had two so called plasterers in the last week who could didn't have a clue what they were doing. I seriously could have done better work myself. That's the truth. One "didn't do" floating. The other was like a rabbit in the headlights. This is not a dig at all of you. I am just interested. If any "real" plasterers want ongoing work contact me.

My Mrs says I'm a real plasterer----------and shes never wrong (y):lol:
 
I found the Dublin rates good , €200 a day rate.
I put that down to the unions whereas over the border they fight for the £80 a day jobs as its a free for all.
When i was a proper plasterer i paid my labourer that!

To much id say

Start them off at £40 then after 4 moths go to £50 a day if you start them of on 70s to 80s when they get good you will have to put there money up to 100 or 120s maybe more just saves you money really

€70 a day is only €2.50 a day more than the minimum wage in ireland.
 
My mate is on the dole. He has 3 kids and a wife. They get a little over €400 a week. Has a council house he pays 75 a week for. And he works about 2days a week labouring for €80 a day. So €560 for 2 days work. Some times i think am the f**k**g clown

spooneys in Ireland now too so makes it even cheaper
few miles over the border and you cant even get the bloody dole if your out of work self employed and if you were eligible you get a royal £67 a week
