Guys,
I'm looking for a bit of advice on how to start tidying this room up. I've already overboarded the ceiling, now want to get the walls in good shape for a pro plasterer to come in and skim.
I want to tackle the first stage of this myself in order to get some more experience and see if I am up to the challenge.
I'm planning to take 2 days to put some battens up and fill in the large areas with sand/cement render.
Does this sound like the right idea? I've read a few other posts about PVA and moisture control.
I do not have any experience with trowelling or anything like that but tend to be OK with jobs like this. However I must admit this one does look a bit daunting.
Should I 'square off' the edges that need patching or just try and fill in the bare areas as they currently stand?
cheers.
