“Thanks so much, Anthony! Appreciate the kind words and the subscription - really means a lot. It’s true, kindness goes a long way, and I believe we can all make someone’s day a bit better if we try. G’day to you too from the UK 🇬🇧! Take care and stay well.”
I agree. People like that do make the world a better place. The idea that it might be a pleasure to help someone has fallen out of favour unfortunately. Good on you for showing your appreciate to her. G'day from Australia 🇦🇺 🦘 I've just subscribed.
What is the tape you use?
It’s orange render tape . It’s more expensive than your typical duct tape but much better.
I see zinchenko finally gave up football😂
@AbseilerPainting Judging by ya handle - you probs think a 'Hawk' is just a bird... Why would you even ask such a dumbass question?..... I guess it's like my Grand Pa used to say " Son, if you can piss - you can paint..."
I hope you two fkn legends get everything you deserve......I just quoted a job on a 1930's "greek" pebble render. As a text coater mostly I didn't know how the fk I was gonna patch and help the client - I over quoted they instantly accepted....farkkkkkkkk I thought.....took me 20mins to find this after I found out wtf it was actually actually called - I was like "Greek agg sand and stone...." nup- ummm 1930's pebble render restoration.....nope. thank the stars y'all popped up, I was like "pebble dash 🤔 " that might work.....OMFG YES YES YES No bs. Really appreciate you guys and hope 2025 is everything and more yu hoped for xxxx (ya fkn legends xxx ❤️ Dr. V
@vinnyandatty8777 What an absolute belter of a comment! 😂🙌 We’re buzzing to hear we could help you out with that 1930’s pebble dash job - love how you went on that wild hunt to figure out what it was called! “Greek agg sand and stone” cracked us up. Pebble dash is a beast of a finish, and it’s always a winner when you get a client who knows the value of a proper restoration. Massive respect for taking on the challenge, mate - sounds like you smashed it! Here’s to many more wins for you in 2025. Appreciate the kind words, and keep doing what you’re doing. Legends like you make the trade what it is. 💪 Cheers, Dr. V!
Thanks
You’re welcome! Glad I could help- Happy New Year 🎉
Thanks for the comment! I’d say it’s manageable for one person on a big section if you’re organized and work efficiently, but it can be a push depending on the weather and material. Most thin coat systems are similar in terms of application and set times, but you’ll notice slight differences between brands-some feel smoother, and others need a bit more attention during the finish stage. And yes, the second rub-up definitely saves the arms! It’s all about pacing yourself and getting the timing right.
Would say it’s manageable doing a big section 1 person. Thin coats manufacture of this these pretty much all the same to apply and setting times. Or it like mono every 1 is different to apply etc. Ideally second rubbing up would certainly be easier on the old arms lol.
Hi! Yes, I set up the spray for a slightly heavier texture to suit the project, but you can adjust it to get a finer finish straight off the gun. It’s all about adjusting the nozzle size, pressure, and material aggregate size. Smaller nozzle (4mm) and material size (1mm) equals finer flatter look.
Awesome thought so, thanks for the reply!
Hiya! Did you set up the spray so the texture was slightly heavier? Can you get a finer finish straight off the gun? Cheers!
Very much enjoy your videos BTW 👏
Hi what is the red on the exterior wall please

Lovely job can I ask how do you get the render mesh to stick on the wall like that I normally put my first coat on then inbed it into it but I'm liking your way
We used neat sbr and rolled it on over the mesh. It sometimes takes a couple of coats depending on the type of background.
Good
Wow they are gonna suffer from major damp problems after this job
Lads you are boarding the wrong way to the Joists. The joists will flex and the boards are running with the joists so you’ve got flex running all the way along the board joints.Hopefully there is not a room above.No doubt you’ll say you’ve done loads of it in the past but boards and joints are not designed to do what you’ are asking of them. Apart from that it looks very nice.
Well done ladsx👍
Thanks 👍
Great video as always 👍🏻
Thank you so much for your kind words! I really appreciate your support and am glad you enjoyed the video. More to come soon!
“Absolutely, David! There are definitely a few ways to approach this - it’s one of the things I love about the trade. Always open to hearing how others would tackle it too!”
Quite a few ways to tackle this I suppose ,
@petemoring67 You’re absolutely right - bedding the beads into the first coat works well and is solid! 👍 However, I like using the glue because it lets me press the beads super tight to the plasterboard, keeping the overall thickness down. Just a personal preference for that snug finish! 👌
WHY waste good money on 'another' product to stick board beads on?? ... You put a first coat on - PUSH the bead into it - Then lay it down as normal - It's NEVER gonna move!! 👍🤠
There are many ways to put up angle beads. It’s all personal preference.
Buy a casting trowel for dashing please . Much quicker and better finish
Did you check if asbestos and lead were present first?
Don't know em ay but didnt see anyone else in the vid. I guess ive never met the girls so If Lead or her.mate.popped out couldn't even tell ya it was them
@Chi198x: In my experience, when removing coving, the ceiling and wall corners are often left quite messy. This is because the adhesive used for coving can pull away sections of the surface, leaving uneven patches or damaged areas. It’s especially common in newer builds, like yours (2011), where walls may have been finished with tape and jointing compound rather than a full plaster skim. If your walls haven’t been plastered, you’ll likely see exposed plasterboard and joint lines after removing the coving. In that case, a skim coat of plaster around the corners will give a much cleaner finish and restore a smooth, seamless look.
From your experience, when taken off the coving. Are the ceiling & wall corners always that messy and in need of plastering? Ours a 2011 build and i dont think any of these walls has plaster on it.
Nice work. Bang tidy
“You’re right-if the wall isn’t square to begin with, this method won’t make the boards square. It’s all about working with what you’ve got and making adjustments as needed to get the best result possible. Thanks for pointing that out!”
Lol false if the wall is not square this won't make all the board square
“@Plastering-c2q Thanks for the kind words about my ‘skeeling’ work! As for the thong dilemma-classic problem, mate. I’d recommend switching to some high-performance, anti-chafing shorts. But if you’re set on the thong, maybe a bit of plasterer’s tape for extra reinforcement? Just don’t use bonding coat-it’s not breathable! 😂”
“@Pav2188 Hi! Yes, it’s absolutely possible to render just one side of a chimney stack, and it can help prevent water ingress on your side. However, it would, of course, be better to render the entire chimney stack for a more permanent solution. Also, make sure the flashing and other potential weak points are addressed for the best results. Let me know if you’d like more advice!”
Nice skeeling work daniel..do you find daniel when your working on stilts , wearing a thong in work it's chafes on your brown star . Very irritating. What would you recommend to stop this occurring when I'm on stilts again ? Many thks
Hi I was wondering would you ever render one side of a chimney stack? I have a shared chimney that’s leaking, my neighbour won’t agree to takes it away but was thinking to render my side to hopefully stop water getting in
“@lonehoot1566 It’s a scribing tool! Great for copying tricky shapes accurately. Here’s a similar one www.amazon.co.uk/Adjustable-MultifunctionProfile-Improvement-Professional-Dimensions/dp/B0D41KF7SZ/ref=asc_df_B0D41KF7SZ?mcid=02bb4ad28d4c3fdcbaac5264daf302b4&tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=697301774134&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15736706943530461687&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9198459&hvtargid=pla-2341952264604&psc=1&gad_source=1
What's the tool at the end?
Posh plasterer
“@jefferyshall True, Jeffery, but where’s the fun in that? Who needs a drywall lift when you’ve got adrenaline, a strong neck, and questionable life choices? 😂”
Umm… easy would be to have a drywall lift! 😊
Officially, it’s a screw every 200mm-300mm, but I like to sleep at night, so I go for 150mm centers. Some might call it overkill-I call it ‘belt and braces’ plastering! 😜
150mm centers 😮
fuck plastering
“@djhago3123 Haha, you’ve got me there-clearly missing the ‘screwgun holster on the hip’ move! Maybe that’s one for the next video. Marking slabs for centres though, now that’s a proper pro tip-can’t argue with that!”
Made easy 😂😂😂😂 mark your slab for centres.. and screwgun on your hip...
“@Plastering-c2q Haha, I stick to my plaster-covered gear-keeps me grounded! But hey, if a dress works for you, I say embrace it! Just don’t forget to match the accessories with the render finish.”
Hey Daniel, do you wear dresses when you go home? I find it's a great release from a hard day's graft
Hi @mervmervalot2296, Great question! We prefer using 2.4m x 1.2m boards because they result in fewer joins, which means less chance of cracking and a stronger, smoother finish overall. However, we realise this isn’t always practical for everyone, so it’s all about finding what works best for the job at hand!
Hi @mervmervalot2296, I did feel a disturbance in the force while working on this one. Maybe I should’ve shouted, “I am your plasterer!” instead of cracking on with the job. 😅
Any reason you dont use 180 x 900 ceiling boards?
Bigger area, so less cuts and less joints. If you're on your own, 1.8s are obviously much easier. But I'd always go for bigger board's.
Hi @ianturner8459, Thanks for your comment! The ceiling joists were quite uneven, so the customer, who’s very handy, added the extra battens to help level things out and make boarding much easier. Glad you noticed the staggered boards - always good practice! 👍
