I know most are old on here. Ok oldish. But I was talking with another plasterer today. Very good plasterer.

He asks how I got on with other gang. I said they were bit rough.
He said he.s convinced theres no good young plasterer and the s**t standard that's acceptable now is disgusting.

So any umde 25s show u some nice work to convince other wise

I ain't seen a plasterer under 25 on site for way over 10 years
 
I think that is the case for most trades at the moment....

In fact I am a little disheartened by the whole standards of the whole construction industry

The severe lack of pride and ambition is getting on top of me.

Sounds stupid but I swear I was born too late

Unfortunately if someone can buy a trowel and hawk/handboard and manage to get some skim on the wall there’s deeming themselves plasterers imho a plasterer can tack,dab,float and skim and use a feather edge properly, and don’t even start me on these would be renderers who can only just about thin coat, give em a 60m2 gable to two coat s&c and they start shaking like a shitting dog and calling everyone in their phone to help em out. Your right @Danny standards are low and probably only gonna get worse

Don’t get me wrong I ain’t knocking the modern renders their miles ahead of traditional s&c, they ain’t too hard to do either if your a capable spread but cus it’s not cheap to install it becomes lucrative to chancers the amount of bad jobs by me is unreal
