ideas on skimming room

[mike85]

Hi new to the forum. just wanted some advice on a job ive been to price. its a room where all four walls tie in together with the ceiling theres no picture rail so no break at all customer doesnt want any joins anywhere also the external corners are still curved and she wants them staying like that. extremely fussy customer any ideas on how to tackle this room. she said she had a plasterer in to do the last room which was a box room and he patched the curves in she wasnt happy

is this joke night?:RpS_confused:
welcome by the way

You need to just get another spread with you and tackle it together in one. Not easy but if she doesn't want joins there's no other way.

Easy enough to blend it in together, have enough people to do it in a hit..

Pictures mike pictures we are but simple plasterers and we understand pictures better than words. Oh and welcome along, how long you been a spread and whats your star sign, favorite movie and do you enjoy long walks on the beach etc.

As we say in scotland 'get her pumped'

 

[Danny]

I have done one of these before... get another spread in and probably bond the corners out a little more to make it easier and try a plastic trowel

 

[Curry]

Sounds loke its a perfect job to do a rolling hit on

 

[casplas]

2 men one hit ,bit much for one man to tackle, needs doing in one to look its best

 

[cathal]

Plastered a lot of prison cells over the years with Fibrocem plaster, internal and externals angles all to be rounded for safety. Once you start you gotta finish.
