You've inspired me to go for 60m2 tomorrow. Got a nice freshly plasterboarded room which I don't get very often.

I'm with you now, you're using unfinish. i.e. no pva'ing. Arrive and straight on, yes I'd go for that.

Sorry ain't been on here for awhile lot of new people i need to get my head round plus i am an old fecker stuck in my ways
 
I notice us domestic spreads think surely not when we hear of these large hits and think must be long walls no sockets etc but then when we have domestic jobs on extensions over board we always do bigger hits.
When you do this day in day out think of the output you'd increase your amount by especially when your told you'll get paid by the m2 not an all in price so your forced to better yourself.
Don't get me wrong there's some dog awful spreads but that's in general not just site.
I think a few of us domestics would benefit from a few days/week working with a site spread and vice versa.
How about A TPF trade centre.
You pick a fellow member from the opposite working place to you and it's day for a day.
You either win lose or come out even. [emoji16]
I'd pick Scottie and Kitchy.
Not sure they'd be happy with my output but my standard is there and God likes a trier!

Vince is a bit hard to suss untill you meet him in person, then you get his humour....a lot of what he says in jest on here passes people by but I always know when he's taking the micheal

Ur rite its a different ball game but the end product is the same..its no Gud being quick but leave a shite finish as that just means u cant handle wat ur putting on..people assume site standards are shocking try telling that to a site foreman or a professional painter and decorator who's following ur work wen domestic spreads finish there work its more than likely Mrs jones is doing the painting! 100-150m2 a day if its there between 2 gud lads is nowt honestly..we even have time to make brews and chill out and eat our cereal its not even a hard day

Tbh 880 a week for that sounds like to much graft to me. Not great money before or after tax really is it but if that's what your up against it is what it is.
 
Well ive just skimmed a 300 bedroom mansion in 7.5 days!! And all with 1 hand tied behind my back! Beat that ya T***s :-)
