    Don't be fooled, this is the sign of a skilled man. Makes it look super easy and completely comfortable talking while doing it. But it is a satisfying job.

    And don't forget to leave a lip for the joiners to knock off to get skirting to fit

      Ye Muppets are always whinging about something 🤦maybe ye should be more concerned with putting slabs on the wall level and plumb first

      Don't they just board over the plaster and caulk in the edges? Swear that's what most tradies do.

      I use an old hand plane whilst cursing to get them flat before fitting skirting

    You'd better rush, as British Gypsum say you've got 20 mins, to get it on, flatten it & fill any low spots.

    Put on from the middle, go down then up. Only 2 passes, you are doing 3. Try it.

    No rush on no suction walls but rush your nuts off on a old dusty poorly sealed wall it will dry quicker then you can put it on

      No he isn't. He isn't using the right technique when applying and is getting a load of stuff on the floor look at it all by his boots. hasn't even got any protection on the floor so it could stain.
