I`d love to be given the time to do a proper high quality finish like this with great attention to detail. Unfortunately most companies Ive worked for want it finished yesterday and they dont allow the time which is actually quite sad. But its great to see a true professional doing such a top class job.
Your videos are so informative and helpful. Especially for a novice like me just learning about the trade. Thank you again! Cheers and respect from NYC.
It’s like an apprenticeship watching these, invaluable advice, thank you so much for posting... I was never good at guessing how many pints I’ve had 😂😂😂
Wall looks exactly like a wall ive just stripped in our 1930s property. What prep work would be needed for painting? Im thinking filling, lots of sanding, mist coat and two decent top coats
Hello Respect to all you do /the way you do! Your advice for new plastered walls before I paint them white what I can use for primer/base coat and which brand for the white paint you can recommend me? Cheers
@@PaintingandDecorating I've seen in your video with the staircase you use PVA, what is the reason? Mist coat I thought can be done wit diluted paint for that reason? Should I use PVA every time before mist coat with diluted white mat? Thanks
Big fan of your channel I watch you every day. One question. When storing the brush you use for your bin primer do you fill the box of wipes with methalated spirits up to the ferrul of the brush so that all the bristles are submerged. Or is it a water/methalated spirit mix. Or do you just add some in and the vapors keep the bristles soft. Thanks again.
Thank you for the insight, it’s like going back to school! One question- if you weren’t going to paper over it, would you still recommend a diluted pva for the mist coat? I’ve got a Smaller previously plastered room I’m scraping back due to a failed mist coat And I’m not sure whether I should use diluted pva, diluted emulsion or BIN primer to seal. Any advice? I’ve watched your video on PVA, but I’m not sure the best course because there are still some patches where the paint remaina. Thank you again, you and your brother are my guides in all things renovation on this old house!
hi just curious but do you have a view on cordless sanders? and using them to do the work instead?, especially anyone who has limited mobility , thanks love your video's.
Hi I've just removed thick wall paper that has been up for several years. Surprisingly now I've sanded the walls they are in good condition and don't need skimming. I'm down to the original grey coloured plaster. Would it be ok if I painted straight on to the walls now paint called Dulux primer and Undercoat? It says it's for walls. I would then paint my colour emulsion on top of that . Thanks in advance
Primer undercoat is for woodwork... your emulsion may say on the instructions how it should be thinned for plaster. Make sure you remove all the old paste before painting. Thanks
Perfect timing - I’ve just removed wallpaper in bedroom and am faced with similar walls to this. I need to do a lot of sanding. Just wondering if you can use BIN primer to seal the walls as well? I have a paint sprayer and was planning on using that. I want to paint the walls and would rather not have to line them with paper. Thanks in advance!
Thanks for your detailed and informative videos. I am wishing to wallpaper line then paint over a vinyl painted wall-the paint was partly flaking and I've scratched away flaking areas and patched with skimming plaster. I've abraded the wall with coarse sandpaper. Should I seal the wall with diluted PVA prior to papering or any alternative recommendation apart from the huge job of removing paint from the walls entirely. Many thanks!
You can buy paint that is for new plaster, or thin down contract matt. Do not use silk or vinyl matt. Or you can do as in this video seal with diluted PVA then two coats of your colour.
Use a foam gun. You can place mastic nozzle on the end for tight gaps with great control vs cans that blast out and check out beeline sealer. It's pva emulsion that can be painted over. I'm doing the same though and works great for preparation. Good video though. ;)
We have a 60's house and had to remove all the wallpaper, old paint. The plaster left behind was not great, I used WallDoctor, cannot recommend it more, fab stuff to cover crap plaster.
@@PaintingandDecorating ah, I see! Thank you for your great videos, you’ve helped me so much! I’ve learned how to do things properly and feel really proud of the work I’ve done in my house.
Great video as always mate. I’m learning loads! One question, I dunno if you can do a video on it or not. My dads had a family mate plaster a wall in his living room who hasn’t really left a smooth, even job. My dads painted it white but you can see where the uneven finish catches the light in the centre of the wall. It’s noticeable but not a total nightmare. Would you recommend sanding it down to smooth it out and then repaint? Surely it wouldn’t need a whole new plaster job from scratch right? Any help please would be brilliant! Ta
Them dust masks you've used are absolute useless...they still let plaster dust through and you'll be picking bits of tat out of your nose throughout day looking like scarface after a night out..

Another wonderful video!

Thank you so much for your videos, I have learned so much from you!! It has really helped me so much! Keep them coming please 👍
Thank you. Glad we can help. 👍
Another very informative ,detailed video you guys are really helping us all out , Thank you .
Thank you.
Could tell by the chuckle after you mentioned that you underestimated your pints that a drinking-related confession was forthcoming. 😀
Love the videos mate. So informative and helpful 👍🏼 Hope your well.
Thanks you.
Love this channel.., you’ve helped me loads, thank you 👍
Thank you.
Desperately trying to find some large gaps to foam in my house 👍🤩!
Haha me too I may start making holes just to try it out 🤐
just get this plank out and he will make them for you
@@garyanderson6077 what you do with your plank out is your own business buddy
Hello
Respect to all you do /the way you do!
Your advice for new plastered walls before I paint them white what I can use for primer/base coat and which brand for the white paint you can recommend me?
Cheers
Always use contract matt for mist coating.. waterdown make sure it soakes in.. thanks
@@PaintingandDecorating I've seen in your video with the staircase you use PVA, what is the reason?
Mist coat I thought can be done wit diluted paint for that reason?

Thanks, sorry for late reply, you only need a small amount in the bottom. Vapours keep everything soft.
thanks for this video, your effort is much appreciated and thanks for showing what a professional does, pint wise.... who's counting? 😂
Thank you. 😁
Good video mate. Enjoyed it!
Thank you.
5 pints then 7. Lol funny. Obviously reference to BEER lol great work as always 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks, yes I should use a script. Lol
@@PaintingandDecorating lol no script required mate. Good fun. Hope.you and hour bro are doing well. Stay safe through this virus thing. 👍🏻👍🏻😉

Cheers for the response! I know no details, but if you’re ever in Northwich there’s a few pints with your names on em.

best not to use B.I.N. to seal the walls, lining walls gives them an even texture.
Thanks for your detailed and informative videos.

Thank you, you should be fine as long as no thick edges they should all be feathered. Diluted PVA is fine.
Is this with all the paint scraped off?
I have a tub of no nonsense pva and it has a warning to not use it as a primer for painting. Would a mist coat be better for sealing a wall?
If it's waterproof PVA it's no good. But normal PVA diluted is fine just make sure it's well diluted so it soaks right in. Thanks
What emulsion do you recommend to seal plaster,that's to be painted with soft sheen?
You can buy paint that is for new plaster, or thin down contract matt. Do not use silk or vinyl matt. Or you can do as in this video seal with diluted PVA then two coats of your colour.

Can I ask are you still working in customers homes with the situation we are in at the moment thanks great videos as always stay safe
Thanks, no not allowed to work in peoples homes at the moment. This was filmed in my bedroom, but hopefully will be starting my outside work shortly.
Dude used your glitter idea for my bathroom and it looks great.... UK.
Thanks.

Beautiful...
Why is the wall purple and yellow? I’ve just bought a 1960s semi and after taking off all the wall paper I have exactly the same colours
Common colours back in the day... thanks

Thank you, you may get away with filling and sanding smooth. and if that does not work lining paper will even the texture out.
what about protecting the doorways from dust ingress to the rest of the house?
I am glad you start the job with a cup off tea this time do you use your bin primer for everything or do you use another primer.
It depends how long I've got to wait, if I can use something different I do. Thanks.
Meticulous as ever, yourself & your brother are a credit to the Profession.
Thank you.
👏👍
Thank you.
Foam. Not just for vegans!
That foam wasnt even touchin your plaster just sat there doin nowt a bit of stiff mixed bonding what you wanted there
No, you're right it wasn't its just to fill the gap between the skirting board. The rest gets filled with filler.
2:54 is foam.
Do i detect a Wigan accent ?
is this guy for real lol
You dont used p v a as a sealer
Them dust masks you've used are absolute useless...they still let plaster dust through and you'll be picking bits of tat out of your nose throughout day looking like scarface after a night out..
We usually use p3 which you will see in a lot of the videos.. but they had sold out so I used a different one. Thanks
