There are many people who are multi skilled and many plasterers have added basic plumbing, bricklaying, painting etc etc to their skill set simply to be able to compete for in the jobs market.

It was the norm years ago for plasterers to do a free trades in Ireland, it was so tough to keep busy at the one trade, tiling (ceramics) and lead work on roofs was the norm for plasterers.

A lot of funeral directors were run by building companies around this way in the past. Chippies making coffins in there slack periods. I can even remember my old man telling me about a firm he did some work for were one day all the site labs didn't come in, the reason was they were being pall bearers for the day.

But if your doing the boarding,skimming,plumbing,tiling and so on your on the job longer meaning you dont need to find as much work to keep you busy.

very true andy,there is still a lot of firms in cumbria but very few in carlisle who still do funerals alongside there joinery/building buisness, most of these are in small villages/towns outside carlisle, and many have been going for 100 years plus

i think casper subs off of one of there building/ funeral directors, he can do there plasterwork and provide plenty of bodies too:-0
