Need advice - is this plastering up to standard?

Blimey
My first wall ever may have looked like that but my second wall was better than all those...
I reckon he bought cheap gear off eBay or out of date or been stored in a shed? Or all of those scenarios

Right so let me get this right,you would set up for the day I.e sheet up etc pva 2 artex ceilings,and skim 2 walls in a day in somebody's House? This isn't a site.hes priced the job wrong and he's a chancer and hence he's got a chancers finish..I'd literally price a ceiling a day and 2 walls another day but seeing as the 2 walls would be a stupidly easy id charge a little less 4 that day

Are you seriously suggesting that would take you three days? I could still do that in a day at sixty two my son at thirty eight would piss it. How long does it take to put a piece of polythene down and roller pva on the ceilings? You have to be having a laugh.

But we want to know if you're fit. Could affect the price of putting it right you see.

Don't pay the Wally who did that. Looks like a para did it. You'll be needing the money to get someone off here to put it right.

Sadly for you I'm not available in your area.

So you are seriously saying you can’t set two average ceilings thirteen foot by twelve foot plus two flat walls possibly thirteen foot by eight foot high? That’s two easy sets, even for me and I’m by no stretch of the imagination quick. Why would I charge for picking up materials when I have palettes of finish, boxes of beads, polythene, Unibond and boxes of scrim delivered to my house? I’m not trying to tell you how to do your job but it appears we do things differently but that doesn’t make me wrong or you for that matter just different so cut the sarky s**t out

I didn’t miss your point, I just don’t see the point of dragging jobs out especially when you have people waiting, desperate for their jobs to be started

I've spent many years doing similar , bit of a shock when I joined here , friends of friends all on mates rates , love to do fxcked artex ceilings that nobody would touch lol
 
Their too busy trying to keep up with the politicians daft enforcement ideas, masks, short pub hours, parties, truantcy, etc..
 
I think we may have had the same plasterer in!

Is this a job well done?

Hi all, I was sent these pictures by a client yesterday looking for a quote for decorating and was hoping for some feedback on this plastering please? Positive and negative feedback welcome... Photos Thanks in advance!
