How To Patch Plaster Old Walls When Back To Brickwork

- When I stripped the lining paper in this room it pulled the plaster out back to bare brickwork as there was some damp issues.
First I used a PVA and let it dry. Then I used a bonding coat of undercoat plaster then two skims of Easyfill 20. I then sanded it all down with a Mirka sander and applied PVA again.
When that was dry I hung grade 1000 lining paper and redecorated th
Great job Daniel and thanks for taking the time to make these videos
Thankyou very much mate 👍🏻
Great job Daniel. Good advice on not to panic 👍
Hahah 100 💯 percent mate
Great work as always mate, all the best at Christmas, look forward to your vids
Well said Daniel . A price is a price within reason. . Nice job. Most customers are more than grateful when you go above and beyond to keep the job moving . I’d have done exactly the same myself 👍👍👍
Many thanks mate. Yes it's good to always try and go beyond as these customers have booked me in again
@@danielnugentpainteranddeco557 yeah . They appreciate the little extra bits …. A extra 20 quid in materials is neither here or there and you’ve got the float and hawk for the next job!!!. I’ve lost count this year the amount of ‘new’ customers that have booked me for next year before I’ve even finished there job!!. So much so that I’ve 2 weeks left to fill in next years diary and then I’m into 2024😱😱
@@bigdude8470 wow mate that's fantastic. Defo alot bustier than previous years but it shows that not alot of youngsters are going into the trade
@@danielnugentpainteranddeco557 yep. Massive shortage of proper tradesmen . It’s amazing how many adverts there are out there for painting and decorating … but don’t do wallpaper 🤣🤣a strange college they went to🤔🤔🤔
@@bigdude8470 hahaha true mate. Alot of decorators in Bedford avoid papering and external work and even stripping woodchip
Two pronged approach - you could coat the external brickwork behind that pipe with silicone sealant.
Nice one mate have a good Christmas
Merry Christmas to you too buddy
Great video, just what i needed under similar circs😂
Cheers mate 👍🏻
Nice finish on that in the end, well worth the work. What do you do if it makes the job run over for a day or two? Do you work the weekend to get it finished or roll other jobs back a bit? Just interested. Merry Christmas to you too have a good one 👍
Hi mate. Yes unfortunately weekends sometimes but I try and even it out when I'm ahead on jobs asweel. I find jobs hard to gauge when booked months ahead. It's a good thing but also hard to keep customers happy all the time
Love your videos ,learned a lot since I've been following you. Helping some friends out decorating there house all the walls had woodchip on them which they have stripped of themselves. They do not want to paper the walls so it will need a very thin skim of easy fill to fill in the little dents and ding on the plaster. My question is would you sand put zinsse guards on and then fill the walls or sand fill the wall and then put on zinsse guards ,don't want to risk there is any old paste left on the walls
I would probably put Optiva Plaster Primer on first then let it dry fully then sand down with a Mirka and repeat filling then priming. Wickes do a plaster primer aswell
Thanks for replying much appreciated. Not easy to get optima primer where I live and we don't have a wicks near by so limited in what I can use.we have dulux ,crown and johnstones where I live . The joys of living in a small town"
i mate i been followinh you forba while i need some advice i got a job soon on landing and stairs the customer got oil base gloss on wood work he wants water base satin on it what is a good Adhesion primer to put over it first?
Hi mate.
I use Haftprimer by Caparol which is waterbased and interior or exterior etch primer. Fantasic coverage. Or Otex by Tikkurila which is a fast drying solvent designed to put waterbased products over it.
Zinsser do Coverstain or if you want a waterbased primer then Zinsser 1.2.3
Why do some people say to use sand and cement on red brick and not plaster.
I know mate. This undercoat plaster was easy to use and didn't shrink and also dried so I could skim 2 coats of Easyfill 20 in a day
Why line the wall if its nice and smooth?
Because the rest of the room was lined so I did it to match the other walls to get the same finish
That old plaster you pulled off is not horrible! Its lovely old breathable plaster made from natural local biodegradable materials. The gypsum multi finish and bonding coat stuff is horrible really as it gives off sulphur if its dumped on landfill. Shame lime plastering is a lost art.
True
Ideally fix the problem strip plaster let it dry lime plaster it Earthborne clay paint 😏
You buerk
@@beecee6850 That's an old phrase you used why
Needs to get on with the job, lime plaster is a palaver slow drying
@@beecee6850 Thats why i said ideally this would be the best way thanks
Low installation value in through walls!
