Its great to see good plastering work done great vids. i been doing it for 22 years seen it all in the plastering game from very good plasterers and very bad ones. I am looking forward to getting back to work this week coming after getting muiti finish in my eye 2 weeks ago scratch my eye ball. 100% better now. Keep up with the great work happy plastering.
Nothing controversial here, just a man who knows his trade well and knows there's more than one way to skin a cat. This is my 20th year in the trade and nothing gets me more than lads who can't see that theres more than one way to get the job done. They get stuck in their old ways and are almost afraid to try a different and potentially easier way. From one Irish plasterer to a UK one, keep up the good work my man.
Always a joy watching your videos, as a general builder, I can’t see myself being a plasterer lol. You either have it or you don’t. I don’t! Lol I was just fixing a damaged wall with corner bead today, even that was a struggle. You spread that like butter lol. Keep up with the videos. :)
Thank you so much for watching and I really appreciate your kind words. Thanks pal but plastering comes with practice. I'm sure you'd do well with some training!! Thanks again and Merry Xmas 👍
@@PlasteringForBeginners I've been a plasterer for 23 years. I know quality when I see it. One of the harder more unpredictable finishes to get. Anyone who says it's easy doesnt do it. My arse has gone a few times on big gable ends. The sun at a certain time will show how the day went. Keep up the videos.
Thought it was k-rend as well , is that sand and cement you mix or a ready made powder form that comes in the bags like fassa . It’s a Great finish you’ve done fairplay . I’ve started to cut down stop beads and stick them on level against the window it’s a massive help and easier to lay on you can run your trowl bead to bead . Good work 👍
@@PlasteringForBeginners Great channel. I am a career changer at the age of 44 and thinking to kick-start a new career path in plastering. Unfortunately I am an hard of hearing hence I have to avoid noisy work environments. Would you advise a career in plastering considering my hearing impairment? It does not look like a noisy job, can you confirm that?
Could u do a video on prep for re skimming a wall that had wall paper on it please? Im okay with fresh boards but not sure on re doin walls thats had paper on or painted
Be careful when rubbing the reveal with the float if the render beads are are galvanized it can damage the galve and they will rust use stainless steel render beads or plastic for fine down finishes , just saying ,good vlog to show beginners well done 👍
Yo man I watch all your vid and I enjoy them keep them comin I have to say I can see you had a hard time wit that window wall if you get what am saying Just dont over wet your walls next
It's vents that the Brickie put in when he was doing the block work. It's timber frame internally so it needed them. They were a pain in the arse to render round to be honest 😂
You can replace it from the inside but there's going to be damage either way unfortunately. It's sometimes easier to work from the inside though I think pal 👍
I did at the beginning but I use 2 seperate ones now. However I'd recommend you use the same trowel if you have a new one. The render really helps to break trowels in 👍
Can I ask a question? About to render over a single skin parapet wall on a roof any tips on getting the sides to blend in with the top ? I'm a beginner and locally no plasterers available
Lovely bit of work as usual.Nice finish on the render.Which sand did you use and is there snowcrete or lime through the mix as it’s a great pale colour.
Very nicely done! Do you remove the tape while it's wet, or leave it on? I'm doing a window and accidentally rendered my tape in place, now it's refusing to come off cleanly
Apart from a whole to fall down what is the point of the corner of the scaffolding being missing. If I was working on that part of the scaffolding I would be constantly worrying about falling.
Whats the multifinish situation over there? Bags are popping up in ny area but are going instantly, certainly not like how it was before all thia covid. Good vid btw mate :)
How do you rate those waffley Refina floats Blaine? I tried one once and hated it, gathering dust in my workshop ever since. Do they improve with break in? Cheers
@@PlasteringForBeginners just out of interest, do you let the S&C fill the diamond holes? Its a smooth face you're ultimately after right? Mine might be too new and clean
Thank you for this. You're a born teacher! 🍀
Always start from the bottom is what I’ve learnt.... Gravity!
Great job, most people would just slap it in there, I don’t think they would check for level!!👍🏻
really helpful video

Sorry to hear that pal! That sounds awful. Glad to hear you've recovered and thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate it. Cheers 👍

Fantastic job mate super smooth flat finish! The painters will be happy!
Cheers pal. I hope it's good enough for them 😉
I like your job. Thank you.
Trying to get a day to watch all your vids back to back great info in there..
Thanks for watching my friend. I really appreciate it!

Nice work Blaine. Is the mix you use for the one render reveals a scratch mix or top coat?
Great Attention to detail really helpful.it does look very cold!!
Cheers pal and it was chilly!!
Well done that man
Cheers mate!!
@@PlasteringForBeginners You are Welcome
Nice job, thanks for posting
Thanks for watching pal!
👍👍👍 Blaine 💎💎 geezer
Cheers pal!!
Finally watched this Blaine. Incredible work again. What an artist!
Thanks Marcus! You're a legend 👍
OMG Blaine!! I was only asking about this the other day! Thank you for uploading! It’s like the latest Marvel movie release... can’t wait to tuck in!
Haha thanks Marcus! I really appreciate that. I hope you enjoyed it 👍

Looks like a great job mate well done 👍
Cheers pal. Thanks for watching!
What a cracking job mate. One of the nicest smooth render sand and cement jobs I've seen! Thought it was K rend at first :-/
Thank you pal. I really appreciate that. Cheers 👌

Yo man I watch all your vid and I enjoy them keep them comin I have to say I can see you had a hard time wit that window wall if you get what am saying
Just dont over wet your walls next
What are those little marks in over the window on the wall ? Great job 👏
It's vents that the Brickie put in when he was doing the block work. It's timber frame internally so it needed them. They were a pain in the arse to render round to be honest 😂
@@PlasteringForBeginners thank you very much for explanation. You are the best plastering master I ever seen . Well done to you
Ha ha the area I’m always in doing plastering work a bit of competition
Haha no way! That's crazy - hopefully see you around my friend 👍
Here's a question for you. Once a reveal has been rendered in. Say years down the line one wants to remove and replace window. How would that be done?
You can replace it from the inside but there's going to be damage either way unfortunately. It's sometimes easier to work from the inside though I think pal 👍
Great that mate you got any vids part way through this job doing the walls ect
I haven't actually which is a shame but I've got another rendering video due soon. It should be good!
Hello mate, just wondering is there any reason you didn't use bellcast beads around the windows?
Top tips Blaine, cheers. By the way are you using the same trowel for plastering or keep a different set for rendering?
I did at the beginning but I use 2 seperate ones now. However I'd recommend you use the same trowel if you have a new one. The render really helps to break trowels in 👍
Is that a stop bead you've just taken up to where the window meets the render? Do you have to remove existing silicone from around the window?
Can I ask a question? About to render over a single skin parapet wall on a roof any tips on getting the sides to blend in with the top ? I'm a beginner and locally no plasterers available
Lovely bit of work as usual.Nice finish on the render.Which sand did you use and is there snowcrete or lime through the mix as it’s a great pale colour.
I used Sandgate sand - some of the best I've used and I mix Lime in the mix. It's good stuff 👍
Very nicely done! Do you remove the tape while it's wet, or leave it on? I'm doing a window and accidentally rendered my tape in place, now it's refusing to come off cleanly
God it's a nightmare when that happens. I tend to leave it on but I use Frog Tape because it's a lot easier to remove. Good luck getting it off 👍
Hi mate .why you working that far from Manchester. home.cheers
Do you ever use an APU bead at all? The type with the sticky foam backing that presses on to the window?
I've not seen it mate. I'll look into that, cheers pal 👍
I notice the window fitter set the windows infront of DPC ,makes for shittie wee revales ,lol
Good to see Bam Margera had moved on from Jackass and gotten a real job, he is surprisingly good at it!
You know what I've been plastering for 46 years, I enjoy a laugh.
Apart from a whole to fall down what is the point of the corner of the scaffolding being missing. If I was working on that part of the scaffolding I would be constantly worrying about falling.
Dodgy scaffolding matey!
Are you using any special admixture for the cold weather
Not at the moment mate but I will if it continues to get colder!
Is it best to avoid rendering when too cold or are there any good additives that will allow you if you had to
Whats the multifinish situation over there? Bags are popping up in ny area but are going instantly, certainly not like how it was before all thia covid. Good vid btw mate :)
I'm in the North West of England and have had no trouble getting multi for months.
It's been fine this time round mate - no issues here 👍
How do you rate those waffley Refina floats Blaine? I tried one once and hated it, gathering dust in my workshop ever since. Do they improve with break in?
Cheers
It's taking a while to break in but I'm starting to like it - it's getting better the more I use it. Just takes time but I think it's good!!
@@PlasteringForBeginners will give it another go, if it messes up my walls again its going in the skip 😂
Haha I don't blame you 🤣
@@PlasteringForBeginners just out of interest, do you let the S&C fill the diamond holes? Its a smooth face you're ultimately after right? Mine might be too new and clean
You should do a video on skimming head's and reveals
You’ve been busy bet you’re shoulders are killing
Always hahaha!
Do you ever work with monocouche? Eco rend/k rend etc. Be good to see some vids if you do muka.
I rarely do mate - I don't really like it. I just stick to sand cement pal 👍
@@PlasteringForBeginners s/c the best way. Keep up the vids, they have been a great help muka.
Shouldn't be bloody rendering if it's freezing
