Your knowledge is amazing mate I've been plastering 15 years and still learning 👍
Great work mate. The brickie probably left the row of bricks out thinking it would be cased in concrete and also DPC and insulation used to stop cold spots from the sil. This is how it was always done on any sites that I worked on.
just realising that there is no concrete sil ( probably just a pvc one ? ) hmmm maybe he just ran out of bricks lol :)
An absolute pleasure watching a skilled professional at work.
Nice to see plenty of dabs on the wall. Glad you recommend to put it all round the socked boxes so many don’t then it pulls back as you tighten the socket screws.
Ha ha ha ha! Love the way you became a brickie - is there anything you can't do!? Dry wall adhesive as mortar - brilliant!
Haha ... I got fed up with spreads leaving me junk or not turning up so i learnt to do my own plastering ,,, that was 15 years ago and i have not used a spread since. I recommend it to any young decorator doing your own domestic private work
Love your work mate! You make it look easy, but for most of us (without your wealth of knowledge) it is not. Great to see someone doing things properly!
"I like to give the plumbers a 5 star luxury experience" That last one properly cracked me up!
I allways got told when I was learning you start with the reveals first. you find your tightest point and that's your measurement insuring the head cill and reveals will all be the same margins, because if your windows are out the reveals will be aswell
Yes. That is how I was taught, to do the reveals first. The way I was taught was to start in one room, put reveals on first, then put other walls on, then go back to dab the window walls once the reveals have set. Having said that, Kirk must know what he's doing as he's been doing it for years. Everyone gets taught differently.
Always is,i did a skim job this week and the dry lining was a disgrace not once did they use a level.Great video thanks
Thanks for video, the initial state of that room reminds me why I do as much of my own work and avoid having tradesmen around as much as I possibly can.
Nice job Kirk. As a bricklayer now general builder i find myself finishing off and clearing up after every other trade. Electricians and plumbers are the worst. I expect it and price for it so it doesnt stress me. As i do all my own drylining i always get reveals spot on, cavity closers in and fixed. My plasterer wouldve walked off the job and whoever fitted the window without the cavity closers in first wants a rocket where the sun dont shine. Youve clearly got the patience of a saint and a bit of savvy
Cheers mate... always the same to he honest
Laid 3 bricks - "Time for lunch". Proper tradesman! 😁
Whoever done the brick and block work couldn’t be further from a bricklayer 😂
We need more builders like you love the videos learning loads 👍👍👍
Back a bit back, no back back back he was last seen in the back garden is this OK yes now you are down there make a cup of tea 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Joiners are the ones that cover up all other trades 🤣
Some days your the dog some days your the lamppost. Excellent work again kirko 👍👍
Didnt see you taking out that packer on the floor! As a tiler, you can just imagine the words of appreciation we have for plasterers leaving those in , especially when they're covered in dried plaster that was dropped, and often have been screwed to the floor.. the least of which is NOT MY JOB to remove them!
Didn't take it out as the board/adhesive needs time to set but I get what you're saying 👍
I Laughed My 🥥🥥 at the Sticking adhesive brick work, it has More of a Chance of being around in 100 years than the rest of the Wall 😉 🤣😂🤣
Thank you Kirk. Your videos have put me in the right direction with my plastering. Cheers.
Great stuff, please keep them coming.
Oh Subbed. Lol.
Brill video from the first second seeing the proper silver knife iv had mine ones for about 20 years beats all them posh new ones. You do exactly what my old boss taught me, every little tip, thats why we are the best out there 😁
Hi kirk last time i cut two vertical slots 100x50mm inside the window cutout and used them like handles once i got the board in the room just
Nice idea
Nice to see pay attention to nice right angled window reveals. I recently had some plasterboarding done near a window and the reveals are all over the show. Pulled them up about it and their answer was “I plaster over what’s there, if it’s not straight it’s not my fault, I’m not gonna get a spirit level on it am I?”
Not sure how to fix it now tbh 😢
Hi Kirk, good to see you back. Would it not have been easier to cut out the window and then carry it in holding from inside the cut out?
I swear this is a form of art! Great skills, well done!
Well done Kirk
Another master class
Looking forward to seeing the next video
Take it easy
Ello felle. Just come across your channel and gone through your previous videos.😂 a bloke told me awhile ago, it takes a certain kind of person do to become a good plasterer. i’m 30 years in it. We’re all bonkers..
thats neatest i seen a window bordered 😂👍
fantastic...I have learnt so much from your channel..Thank you
That's funny I've always wondered why everything is left to the tiler 😂
Or the chippy
Hi Kirk, really like your channel. You’re clearly a good bloke. I hope you start wearing a dust mask especially when you’re removing old plaster
One thing i always do is to foam the frame gap if its not been done it’s a bad spot for cold entry and it’s to regs that way. Not a criticism you always do a good job m8
Been a while, but i love playing the maracas .........
love your vids, always cheer me up! thanks!
As always thinking of others, and doing others jobs 😊
Nice job mate, its a good job I watch your videos the amount of plaster patching and skimming I have to do following so called tradesmen
Another great video Kirk. Keep up the good work an passion
Love the videos. So much gold!!
Another excellent job done, continually amazed by your professionalism and ethics, you're a great man Kirk.
Really wish I could find a plasterer like you in East London, long shot but if you know anyone please do let me know - happy to throw 100 quid your way for the referral.
I hope the "bricklayer" is cringing watching you clean his snots bridging the cavity. Good on you for cleaning it out. You, my friend are a tradesman👍
Finally a Video 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Keep it up Kirk
Finally Kirk been looking forward to a video 😁🤩
My dad was a tiler and he sometimes had to finish the plumbing so that he could work.
Talk about putting the effort in fair play 👍
Ur a great man kirk!
Rough with render on exterior walls is proper way, but for a quick job, gotta do what you gotta do i guess 👍
Being after the plasterer being a painter they always leave us tidying up there bits of filling & mess around smoke alarms or sockets etc 😠
Not me pal
wouldn't mind betting that external wall will condensate to buggery especially if the studs and ceiling around it are insulated
That was a good wee watch, well done bud.👍
Now mate a quick question for you. I have started skimming my kitchen wall with multifinish but I encountered a problem so I had to stop half way through the wall so my question is. Is it possible to start skimming again from the dry plaster I have featherd it into the wall just not sure if I need to do anything special. I am no professional plasterer but i used to work as a dry liner a good while back so no the basics and done a couple of walls at home already
Yes just feather it in 😊
Great to see some work vids again! Personal Question: what do you prefer when plastering a concrete wall that meets a drywall ceiling? No ceiling and fix the wall first, or plaster against the ceiling?
Depends what type of ceiling.
If the ceiling isn't being plasterd then definitely skim the wall first and fix the ceiling later
Sheer quality....👌
Love these videos keep them coming 👍
Why did you not pack the board up to the ceiling, and do the soil pipe section separately? Assuming you need to skim it anyway (I'm new to plastering but done a few jobs so far)
C”mon, you’re not THAT old that you need to be working in inches 🤪
Cracking vids buddy, keep up the great content.
Nice job Kirk. I have to disagree tho. Bridging the cavity is just plain bad workmanship, and lack of insulation is shocking.
Your not disagreeing. We are both on the same page 👍
@@Onthetrowel Yes mate👍. Great channel if you were an aspiring plasterer. Always well explained.
Have missed your content Kirk. Chuffed to see you back
Do your trade a favour n get an apprentice. In fact watching this video you could probably handle two ! Sovini Ed.
Great to see another video missed them
Good to see you back
What about decorators? They put right all the other trades cock ups
Correct, my brother gets F off about all that. Pressure on to hand over the job and everything been banged about, and other late running trades are walking through or in the same space.
I could write a book on this subject. The amount of time I’ve lost due to other trades in my 40+ years as a decorator. It’s criminal.
And tilers cover up the bows in the walls plasterers leave 🙄
Nice work mate as always
Well done sir!
It’s not! It’s all left to us decorators, that includes fixing your half arsed plastering!
His plastering is never half-arsed.
That aside how do you fix bad plastering as a person who does colouring-in for a living
This is why i had to go work for myself, i always had too many people cutting corners and expecting me too, i will happily spend an extra day going balls out on a job so i know it is absolutely perfect. Way too many people who just want to get paid and fk off to the pub
Legend.
We say at work plasterers are water talent have to be chippys brickies plasters and some time painters lol
Awesome
Another great video, mate 👍
As a plasterer myself it is amazing how many times you run into shite like this, they get charged simply as that👍
I actually liked this video about 3 seconds in before i even watched it. Simply because, I know Kirk knows what he's talking about 😂
I'm still trying to convince the missus after 20 years 🤣
@Onthetrowel Haha, we can't win them all, big man 🤷🏻♂️😂
After the trash tradesmen ive had since owning a house its nice to see a professional
Have you ever used this new “storm” plastering accelerator?
Lol.. Usually left for the painter
Received my pink Sbr. So exciting 😂
Bloody bootiful big Kirk 💪🏻
I hope you report the people who do shoddy work.
This is not a tradesman's code, those are thieves and liars!
Thats builders for you
One day I want to build a house with all the top traders from RUclips!
I'd like to think I'm a professional plasterer..
Open the bathroom windows 1st for dust etc...
Also cut the reveals 1st get them dabbed on and setting .
Then board the face of the wall
Good job though kirk👍
Making me want to do a RUclips channel
I used to do reveals first but came across to many windows not in square so now I just get the wall where I want it and make the reveals to fit mate
Left for the painter!
Quality
I hope the plumber stuck a few more screws in those boards before tiling, lol
When I worked on Sites - We always came across Brickies leaving stuff out - a bit niggly - But I always put it right myself, rather than ask them to come back and fix it - Other spreads would say - "We're not paid to do THEIR! work for THEM!" - and used to ridicule Me for making - 'Their' work Easier! - But GUESS who took home the BIGGEST wage at the end of the week - ALWAYS!! 😂
💪🏿 drink this AG1 but it’s miles over priced.
That drink is 😮
You don't need to worry about fire protection on external walls mate. If anything, the architects etc would prefer for those walls to fail, lets smoke out quicker.
Just how we had to do every wall when we were on site pal
@@Onthetrowel I get it, I do. It can be hard enough to expect a plasterer to tape a joint, let alone think about fire protection. Keep em comin !
Hi Kirk, watch your videos a lot love the advice. Could do with picking your brain though. I skimmed over an artex ceiling on Friday. Second coat was on by 11:30 thought great. Plaster was still soaking by 4 o’clock 😮 plus when I tried to towel the ceiling I wanted to tear real bad. Have you had this before?
Was the stuff in date mate.
@@Onthetrowel first thing I checked yeah plenty of date. I usually find with artex the plaster takes up pretty quick. Never seen plaster stay wet for hours and hours like that. 4 o’clock on a Friday is time for the pub haha
DIYer here. For longevity shouldn’t moisture resistant board be used in a bathroom?
They usually just put them in showers pal but in my opinion, you'd be better using cement board rather than any plasterboard.
Hi Kirk what did you put in the cavity , plaster board or cavity closers
looked like PIR insulation
Why is there so little detail paid to fitting the cavity closer? Very little info on RUclips. How was it fixed? How did you make it sturdy enought to stick your board to it?. The plastic is very flimsy. I personally think these closers are crap, prefer the old method of closing with brick/block, much stronger.
Would like to see a video of you doing external render on a door for example where you have to fix some form of expanded metal lathe over the plastic closer. Got to do it at home, builder just left it because he didn't know how to finish it saying the plasterer should know. And guess what.
Wish you had 100 clones working around the UK? 😅😅
Gravity's far superior to Cement.
Few red flags on this one 😮
Anthor good video top work mate 🧱 👌
I can assure you,, everything is left to the decorator!! I hate following plasterers! The customer gets told I will make good the plaster!! It’s madness!! I don’t no more, I tell the customer, they can come back and make good their own bloody mess!!!
to be fair the painter and dec gets it worse
100%. Was a decorator for 25 years and just got fed up of making good a lot of other trades work be it plastering, carpentry or sparks who had cut their boxes out to big and expect us to make good.
Are you related to Eddie Hall?
Best get the window guys back, No trickle vent ??????
As the plasterer I don't really manage the jobs mate but you are correct
Try being a Decorator everything is always left to us some real bad tradesmen out there shocking that most of them get paid
Like what? What major elements would the decorator be snagging 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@crashbangwhallopwhatavideo like coming behind shit carpenters, dry liners and plastering oh and plumbers smashing holes here there and everywhere and sparkies so yeah 👍
Im surprised to see that you have used the wrong plasterboard for this job ?
Moisture boards are a bit of a gimmick mate. If you want to let the boards get wet then use cement board.
The plasterboard should never get wet and if it does then you have got a problem.
Green Moisture (resistant) boards will still fall to bits if the get wet mate.
Good observation though 😉
