The only thing I have to say is.....I told you so ! This was a small gable that had an oldey worlde type brushed/sponged finish,(The mix was stiff as I knew it would be a slow one,) therefor it did not need floating and subsequently did not require a napp finish. Freddie has done all the other...

3mm thin coat stop beads.

No on the contrary rising damp does indeed exist but the point I made on another thread was that it is blamed for a manner of problems that are unassociated. Where I live we use concrete block for the vast majority of construction and believe me they take in alot of moisture in capiilary...

Without going into the debate at the moment of the whys and wherefors...Even the dampest of cellars, basements underground car parks etc etc can be tanked with ease and will stop the damp from penetrating through so in effect acts as a barrier between wall and internal plaster skimmed finish.

Thats the point I was trying to emphasise before about pva. I use it on occasion but it is not a cure for all ills, and at time,s because folks have been led by the nose into believing it is the answer to all their problems then it gets used, abused and reccomended far to liberally. A point in...

Effective sound insulation is an expensive undertaking. The above suggestions will only partially work foil backed boards will make no difference, shelter board will deaden the noise to a degree, Two skins of 15mm accoustic plasterboard with staggered joints and accoustic insulation are thee...

You need to strip back to the bare substrate, set a bellcast bead or form one with timber 2"x1" 150mm above the d.p.c. There are alternatives in external insulation batts that can be mechanically fixed to external walls then covered with pre mixed render coats. May be an idea to black jack...

Haaaa haaa haaa .....being able to name a certain term for a particular stone and being actually capable of forming them are what sets the likes of you and me apart J(oke) Bonding... You clearly have not the first idea of how to form corner Quoins because after asking you now nineteen times...

The back of the new waterproofer I got today I tried to remove it but it refused to come off without tearing, so I will take off the one I have from my old drum some how some way. Or photograph it. (This I promise you) I will then scan it onto my p.c. and offer it up for your perusal...

OOOOOOOOOO MYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOOD!! I show him proof and it comes back with "thats one out of how many p.d.f's." WHATpdf's If there is one single solitary one, that states in clear English " For external use" you have shown, then bring it back for us all to see. You are like a...
