I want to say a big profound thank you to Steven thanks to this video I was able to fix this problem plaguing my parents bathroom, with relative ease due to your spot on and easy to understand advise. Please see this as a reason to continue making your wonderful videos. PS your intro is absolute gold don't ever change it.
Thank you so much for your videos. As a complete DIY novice, I followed this and got it all done over a weekend. The result may not be as perfect as if you had done it but your message at the start makes me feel proud of what was achieved. Well done for following the comments and answering questions long after you posted this video, one of those questions applied to my situation too, so got the extra advice from that too. You are a legend!!!!
I've spent too much time staring in dismay at my peeling ceiling. Finding this video has inspired me to shop for supplies and fix it myself for a fraction of what a contractor would charge. Thank you!
Spot on 😊 I got a bit of peal in my bathroom. In fact when we moved in and started decorating the other rooms of the house not one room has had the plaster sealed so I’m expecting the same from the bathroom🤦🏼
hey I really like the quote you said. "I'll take progress over perfection any day of the week, and if you know you've done your best that's all that matters" anyways great video, really useful.
really helpful video mate, i've already just scraped, sanded and painted straight over my flaky bathroom window wall but next time it flakes i'm gonna follow all these tips and do it properly lol
Many thanks for the step-by-step instructions, Steven. For anyone who's still wondering, yes, Zinsser Peel Stop Plus is available in Canada at Home Depot. And that's where I'm headed to right now.
Hey, thanks very much Steven for all your videos, especially this one. I'm about to do the little bathroom which has the same problem. Learned so much from you already and still more! Tyvm again o/
Getting ready to tackle this job in my own home and glad I came across this video. Great job explaining all the steps and great result. I'll be subscribing!
My dad always told me, even if you're good at what you do, you can aways learn a little something more, spend a whole day and not learn at least one new thing, you've wasted a day
Always keep learning and evolving my freind. When something is difficult, thats when you are learning and when its easy your not. Your dad sounds like a wise man.
I have quite a big area to do and some people suggest applying peel stop just to the edges. Should I apply to the whole area & bare plaster? Thanks again for the video!
I hired a so called professional painter to paint my newly remodeled bathroom. He didn’t use primer on the new sheet rock so it started peeling a few months later. It just goes to show that if you want something done right you have to do it yourself.
Video absolutely smashing spot on... Good stuff. And I must say you are on tough dude scraping and sanding with no eye or breathe protection. How do you do it?? .. I am anxious to know sir.
Many thanks for the advice, ive been agonising over this problem for days. I used Zinsser Guardz as i couldnt get the Peel Stop. I hope that works as well? And can i get away with sanding the edges but not usin filler, on a matte surface? Is ready mixed filler the best way to go? Ive only got the branded filler in powder. Many thanks and keep posting for us DIYers, please...
Thankyou very much, it all depends how far you want to go, if you can live with the little step then dont fill, if you want to lose the step then fill, use the filler that is easy to sand.
Excellent mate. Gutted to see others getting 1000000s of views using PVA and not explaining things properly. You deserve way more views doing things the right way!
Hi Stephen. Great video. Just got my bathroom renovated and thought would be easy to paint walls and ceiling myself but have found peeling paint over my shower. I don't have a fan but a small window. Didn't catch the products you use to seal plaster and edges and the filler you then used? Kiln?
When I do my second layer of filler, am I doing this over the new "edge" that's been made, or over the original paint plaster edge please? Hope that makes sense
over the original paint plaster edge, you will be 2nd filling over what you have filled. you can do it when first fill has dried, remember to fill clean then there is less to sand.
@@Inexteriors thank you for reply and help, very much appreciated. Done my first layer tonight, first time filling. Filled the best I could but not as clean as I think your video would have wanted 😂
Great video, and I've got the same problem, plus some mould in my bathroom. Would you advise doing the same thing, or anything different ? Also, would be great to see some videos of your method for doing picture rails. Thanks in advance 🙂
Thanks for the video. I am a bit of a newbie at this so a couple questions. When you give it second fill after light sanding, are you letting the first fill dry, if so, approximately how long before sand, dust-off and second fill? Thanks!
If you are painting new room thats been plasterd, then yes a mist coat should be done. if you are doing a peeling patch like this, the peelstop will act as a mist coat and seal the plaster, i am sure the ready mixed easi fill will be fine as long as it is for fine filling. I have never used ready mixed easifill, let me know how you find it.
PeelStop is brilliant .... so many use PVA cus it's cheap.. but they don't know the problems you get with PVA and bare plaster + paint!. Nice to see it done right Steven. Have you used Zinsser Permawhite Mould Resisting paint yet for bathrooms?? awesome paint
Thanks Phil for your professional feedback, to be honest i have only started with the zinsser products a couple of years ago. So far i have used the peel stop and bin and the 123, i will get round to using more. None of the edges lifted at all when i did this cieling using the peel stop, before the peel stop you can guarante i would of been fighting with some of the edges. Never have used pva for it though. Maybe a collaboration is on the cards in the future.
@@Inexteriors Zinsser Gardz is a life saver.. ideal on problem surfaces.. like efflorescence/distemper etc. So many good products out there now, it's just a case of finding a good one you're happy with.. or you're forever swapping and changing. Bedec and Isomat do some good paints. (water based). Happy to help if I can ;)
Cheers phil, up untill 4 years ago i did not rate water based/hybrid undercoats and top coats, my head has been turned i love the Johnston's aqua undercoat and top coats.
its to take the step away from the peeling paint edge to the plaster, so it fills the edge out and looks smooth. Yes you could leave out if you are not concerned about the step. Could you explain what spackle is and what it does, as we dont use it here in the uk or we call it something different. Many thanks.
Great video thanks Steven, I have peeling paint on bathroom ceiling, it looks like no undercoat was used. I have a bit of black stain which looks like from condensation, any tips on how to paint over it? I bought Zinsser Cover stain for another room could I use it on the ceiling here do you think? Also whats wrong with PVA to seal? thankyou.
Thankyou very much. Paint sits on the film of pva, if the pva peels so will the paint pva is not goo to seal plaster before painting,. you can use the cover stain for the black stain, use the peelstop like i did in the video.
@@Inexteriors thanks yes I will do that. I also have half a wall in utility room where they painted over some peeled paint only, no filling done, it looks awful, like craters on the wall, will I fill over do you think? It doesnt seem to be peeling.
😮 how would you treat a wall that has been plastered over wallpaper paper? Also is there are cracks on the wall and ceiling could that be a bad painting job or the plaster as well?
Great video thank you! I’m tackling a small bathroom and 90% of the paint has come off after scraping. Should I still follow these steps or does it need to be replastered or something else?
Hi Steven, love your work! I’ve got a quick question, what would you recommend if the layer beneath the peeling paint is another layer of paint? Would this method still work?
Hi I’ve already used pva to the peeling I’ve been working on is that enough now ? Also if the ceilings other areas are not treated with peel stop I guess that will be the next area ?
I have a couple of small patches in the bathroom, where the paint peeled up when the tape was removed. Would I still need to use the Peel stop on this? Thanks!
Thanks for these videos Steven, you don't happen to have a somewhere I can send you a photo of a problem I'm having with peeling paint, could use some advice on correcting the bodged job I've done. Cheers

Its looks similar to this ceiling, follow the procces in this video.
Hi I'm just wondering do you water down the paint before applying to the ceiling
Not here, the peel stop sealed the plaster, but if i was going to paint new plaster then i would.
Got to do a chimney breast due to a similar issue would you say pva would do the same job as the peel stop
I would not use pva to be honest, peel stop is the way forward for me.
Can I use a paint roller for the paint instead of a brush
yes you can. i used the brush for the peelstop, and to put a coat on the effected erea, i then used a roller to paint the full ceiling.
