Do just use your plastic speedskim to flatten the base coat or do you rub it up like traditional sand cement ready for the top coat
Use the speedskim to flatten
Hi, can you advise where you got your rubber roof kit from, please.
@@SimplyMotorhoming Rubber 4 roofs.com
Thankyou 👍
Love it when one takes care and pride in their work. I hate nothing more than shoddy workmanship. Fine job here 👍🏼
Appreciate that bud👍
Love the videos 👌👌do you have to wait 24hours for the primer to dry or as long as its dry your good to go ??
As long as it’s dry you can go
Love the videos 👌👌do you have to wait 24hours for the primer to dry or as long as its dry your good to go ??
Fantastic video thanks for taking the time to post such a informative video 👍
Glad you enjoyed
What render did you use for the base coat?
How soon do you rub up?
Depends on weather conditions but pretty much straight away
I’m concerned that the walls have been primed more than once by a previous plasterer who let the customer down and it’s making the top coat hang? It’s like the moisture is sitting behind the silicon and making it slide/fold on itself??
@@DaveArmstrong-pn7tc I would just leave as long as possible and just experiment with it
Any reason you didnt start back and work the adhesive towards the rubber?
Do you think that would make the job easier?
@worklife4221 yes slightly...
@@mervmervalot2296 how?
@@worklife4221 so you don't have to keep getting up and walk around the glue around the edges.. I'm not picking... I just asked if there was a reason you started at the rolled up rubber end rather than work back towards it...
@@mervmervalot2296 I do it that way so that I can roll the adhesive onto a bigger area as rather than kneeling on the rubber , but I do it the other way as well
Great explanatory video...one question: As the edges are raised where does the rain water drains off? Many thanks.
The back edge isn’t raised so as the roof has a fall on it the water all runs off into the gutter
@@worklife4221 😁
Good job Hitman 🙏
Very helpful Video, a tip though for potential users, PVA the top surface of your Boards to seal (These Boards are very porous) and paint the edges, and left to dry, anything will do as long as It's oil based.
Won't oil based finish degrade the EPDM? I know that bitumen will.
@@TheDajoca The Edges only then left to dry.
I was told by a rep for the supplier of the rubber roof system that PVA can have a reaction to the adhesive and therefore is not recommended although sounds a good idea, not sure how true this is though.
Where’s ya boots ???? 🤔😜
What the hell do I need boots for I’m not going hiking😂
@@worklife4221 🤷🏻♂️😂fair enough!
Absolutely rubbish about the notch trowel have been doing eifs here in the states 25 years and not once has a company Total us to do that ,over foam cement board or hard surface background,
Did you use the product that we are using in the video out of interest?
You ain’t got a clue mate I’ve been doing this a long time and have always used notched trowels and I know loads of other people that also use them.
Why not use secret nailing?
The customer wanted it screwed down and it was having carpet over it
Will try it soon 😊😊
Are you in Sheffield
Sorry I’m in Essex
❤❤it good😊😊😊
What an absolute brilliant video and so well explained thanks so much worklife
the speedskim finish on the basecoat, is it enough key for the topcoat? good job btw. I done some k rending years ago in London, been out of the loop for a while but got my first silicon job coming up
Yes the speedskim does the job just get it as flat and smooth as possible cause if you don’t it will show when finish is put on, hope all goes well for you
Brilliant im going to get this rough neck gun.
What size batten do you use on the sides. Thanks
I think from memory it was 25x50mm roofing batten
What you are using for based coat with mesh which adhesive?
When you have the cement on the Hawk, do you constantly try and keep it in the centre?
Not necessarily as long as it’s mixed right it won’t fall off just make sure you keep the hawk upright all the time
Great work guys! What is the brand of the flexible featheredge that George is using? How does it compare to a rigid one or a Darby?
It’s the ox speed skim and we find them so much better than a darby they have sort of taken over the Darby in the plastering trade now with the different lengths and interchangeable blades
@@worklife4221Much appreciated! Cheers from Australia.
@@59markr Not worries mate👍
That job is a credit to you and George. Such a large area and evenness of your application is outstanding. Can you tell me what size aggregate was in the top coat?
The top coat comes pre mixed in tubs to whatever colour that you want, as for the aggregate it is only 1-2mm thick all of the work is done in the base coat getting it flat and smooth
@@ipfishing1466Many thanks. I was interested to see George’s featheredge. It has a flexible blade. I thought they were rigid. Any idea as to what it’s called?
This will fail
am from the UK bud a tip get a good black back then put all mixed mortar in it like a cake piping gun cut corner off or when you have 5 mins use plastic bottle cut to shape and super glue it then wrap elec tape around it that's what I used for some time gets filled quickly when working out side full brick job I put 3 to 4 drops of fairy in a cup of water and add it to the mix at beginning comes out so nice
I was unsure about getting one but you sold it to me nice one
They work good as long as you get that mixture right and clean them out when using now and again good luck
Hi mate, I'm having an extension built with new 350 cavity walls, the existing is 330 but I want a flush finish, I'm having the new wall d&d obviously but how do I make up the 20mm discrepancy on the existing wall, would you fix another piece of plasterboard to the wall first, ( glued or screwed?) then just d&d the whole lot new and old and line completely flush, be interested to hear your thoughts mate, cheers 👍🏻
I would probably d&d some 9.5mm plasterboard to existing to bring it flush with the new wall and then d&d over the lot, the only reason for using 9.5mm is purely to give it a bit more adhesive when sticking rather than the dots of adhesive being to thin. Hope this helps
@@worklife4221 Thanks mate that helps a lot, cheers 👍
Nice job!
10Q sir
Welldone!!!
Can you go over Silicon render? Just had a guy do the render on the front of my house. Claimed it's good stuff, it will look better than next door, sounded like he knew what he was doing. I later realised he used the float to apply the render and didn't finish it off properly. Some bits look like a child was spreading Nutella on a slice of bread. Does it all need to come off again, or can it somehow be sanded down and gone over again? Or will it need to all come off and start again?
Will probably need to come off you can’t go over it
Use clamps. Do a good job, even if they are being covered with carpet. Do it right.
What tradesman does this? Is it carpenter?
*Roughneck mortar gun review:* _"Don't always listen to reviews"_ Alrighty then! 🤦🏾♂😂
What spacers are you using here?
They were a 10mm spacer that I brought from the company which supplied the brick slips
Pefect thanks 👍
Bloody good work with a little hop up ❤
Do you pva ceiling before plastering is it best to or not
You don’t need to pva on new plasterboard but anything else then yes definitely
If the original building doesn’t have a expansion it’s a waste of time unless it’s for ease to render halving the size you have to put on.
It was to halve the size in the heat
After yousing silìcon render i will try never to use sand and cement ever again i found it somuch easier and stress free no sagging no falling off or blowing its good stuff nice job aswell boys👍🏻
Watch
Great job well done mate
What was surface prep?..what surfaces can this be applied to?.. good Tuturiol...thanks
Prep was an EPDM primer and applied onto sterling board also can be applied onto plywood just make sure it’s dust free with no bits sticking up that can puncture the rubber
Where do you buy your floorboards from please as I have to do the same job and prices seem crazy
I brought these from Travis Perkins and yes prices are mental.
Is that a 16-in trowel to put it on with or are you using an 14 nice
16 inch👍
@@outandabout4971 great videos thanks for the reply all I've ever done is render walls same job over and over up to 1.2 or 1.5 for damp roofing.. I plastered for nearly 10 years and never did one ceiling lol when I see you put your setting on it looks quite wet and you do a one stroke but the new flexi trails and speed skins means you can just throw it on and just flatten it in.. it's moved a long way since I first started one trowel does it all method.. easier on your joints as well.. I actually finished with one of those plastic trowel
Did ceiling today saw big 1.5ft blister when flattening. Bloody backing paper under old coat plaster with layer of silk paint.
😡😡😡
A bit late, but a beautiful job, mate.
I mixed the cretestone with a stick for a small patch up. It got hard quickly. And I apply to thick . Can I sand it down. And must I have the tool to mix
Would it be beneficial adding insulation? & Why have you not used whole lengths?
Its an insurance job so there was no insulation before so unless the customer wants to pay for it which they didn't, then I am not allowed to put it back , and the customer wanted staggered joints not long lengths , does that answer your question?
It does... thanks for taking the time to answer my question 😊
Can the cracks develop faster on a plastered ceiling versus an Artex/popcorn one?
