I hope so.. will probably have to pack behind skirting. I have always been told not to plaster below the dpc so i told him to finish just on the last brick mortar line. I agree the job could have been better but as long as it stick this time round i will be happy

Why is the pressure going up. Could it also be the little copper pipe that goes to the expansion vessel blocked?

Ok i will try that. But why does the burning go out after 2 minutes of running? Could it be the heat exchange plate as it might be junked up and not taking the heat away from the primary heat exchange and thats why it turns off?

You should have said you live nearby i would have given you the job. Where abouts are from? If i or any mates of mine after a plasterer i will give you a shout.

Paid 625 thats with my own material 2 chinmey walls upto 1 meter up and a bit around the front door

Just to add the central heating is working fine. Its just with the dhw.

Ive paid good money for this hes not cheap. Yes hes left around 4-5 inches from the floor and skirting is 7inch so should be all good. Ive tried putting a piece of skirting against the wall and looks flat against the wall.

Hi i have a halstead 102 combi boiler the water pressure increases after few days on its own. I opened the filling loop to check if the water was leaking while passed the filling valve while its shut and it there was a drip or 2 after every 20 seconds so i replaced this valve and checked again...

Im having new skirting 7" so should cover that. The marks are water marking i suppose from when he was trowelling the plaster smooth.

Ive taken some photos. You can see the were the render scratches through the multi finish is this because the plaster is still wet and once it dries you wont see them? Its the lines where he's used a render scarifier?

Yeh i will get some uploaded soon

Hes called and said hes finished. Is there anyway of telling if it will stay on the wall or is it a waiting game?

At first he used a small spray bottle of flash but with water and now he used a 2 litre pepsi bottle with holes on the top and drench the walls fill bottle up twice. At first the bricks would just absorb the water so he filled up the bottle again so in total threw on 4 litre of an area of 2 to 3...

Yep pepsi bottle filled with water. Gone back today to have a look and its worked a treat, no cracking just yet and all looks good. Hes pva the new render that was put on yesterday and started plastering even though you shouldn't really pva walls where damp was previously but we'll see what...

Hes done few walls both in dining room and lounge but its only in the lounge to one side of the chimney breast thats cracking. It states on the dryzone to use Sharpe sand as its copes better with damp or summa? He took it back to brick and got a 2 litre pespsi bottle with several hole on the...

I think it was spray bottle of flash but with water in it probably 1 litre or so.

Right just a update, had the new plasterer in today and its not a good start. Hes taken all wall previously plastered back to brick. He put on first coat of Sharp sand and cement render and there is one wall the render has started to crack after 1 day and some areas now sound hollow . I told...

If it not draining it probably your drain pump not working. When your washing machine finishes the wash cycles its waiting for the drum to pump out the water before it can go into high speed spin and of its not draining/pumping out the machine wont step on to the next programme (which is the...

Its normally the 4 feet on each corner need adjusting. Rock the washing machine while its off and if its rocking then the feet will need adjusting.

I know but i dont want him to turn around later and say i told you to remove the old plaster. In terms of cost he's not charging much more for the extra render its just the cost of materials really. So he can put both coats of render in one day and next day he can multi finish and all will be...
