Cheers mate

@@togsy5901 thats always an option but still requires an electrian and most likly plastering afterwards, and the mould still needed cleaning and the thermal paint was still needed, i get what your saying tho

@renovationgroup1983 it's what you're comfortable with doing i guess. A piv is straight forward to install yourself, or an hours work for a sparky. Cut the correct size hole in the the ceiling so no plastering is required. Any existing mould would still need to be cleaned regardless.

@@togsy5901 i think the tenant would of just turned it off tbh

@@roncatton7101 the landlord wanted the damp and mould removing as quick as possible for the tenants, i felt this was the best way to get it removed

@renovationgroup1983 Thats the trouble with most of these landlords, they want the rent money but are not prepared to get to the route of problems and just get quick effectless 'non' fixes. Yes appropriate ventilation is important but will never fix a bad damp issue. Councils are one of the worst for inserting vents and useless fans in almost every room.

@roncatton7101 this has fixed the route of the problem tho mate, the route of the problem is poor ventalation so this is what ive installed, the thing to remember about damp proofing is to identify the issues, is it condensation, rising damp, pentrating, dry rot etc, this property was not ventalated at all so the building sweats and then causeds mould build up etc, its ok installing a PIV but what happens if theres a power cut that lasts a long time or what happens if the tenent just flicks the switch and turns the piv off? The way ive done this job will 100% get rid of damp problem

@@renovationgroup1983 Think we should all live in caves again..🤣🤣👍🏻

@roncatton7101 be cheaper wouldnt it 😅🤣

Thanks for that, it needs to be applyied as thin as possible

hello, what do you mean? Thanks!

I used to love making it always wanted to set up doing it but its a dieing trade on the fibous side of plastering

Its a bit of a tough one tbh id consider taking them to court or report them to the local council

It just depends if its attracting damp and if if it is then yes id do it

Can you move air vent higher if too near ground? ​@renovationgroup1983

Hi thanks for that, i use knauf dry wall mainly, what you trying to do?

@@renovationgroup1983 it's my small square bedroom, i added some soundproofing, i added a finish but it's very uneven, i need to build a bit of a scaffold i think to make application easier, i need to get a 750-1m wide skimmer tool i suppose ... struggling with it, my first time 😆

Thank you its looks nice doesnt it

Hi not at the moment we are steady, but please feel free to send me your details to [email protected] Thanks Jason

No you will be ok to leave the render on

Hi what type of render have you had done?

Thin coat

@@Alaw_83 ok you need to redo the full wall by sounds of it, if its been sprayed then you can patch it, if its been finished by hand u cant patch it up

No problem cheers

Cheers mate, it depends on the weather in warm conditions you might get 15-20mins working time before it sets so you have to work it a bit at a time

It can cause problems down the line but it can take a few years

There wasnt any need to, them boards are 100% solid, thats sort of like saying why not scrim all the plaster boards up before plasterimg, it really doesnt make any difference at all really does it

@@renovationgroup1983 bollocks. Render boards should be fully meshed. Cowboys

Come back when you know what your on about haha

I see both your points but never have I seen just meshing the joints. Wonder how that would fall under the guarantee if a crack occured???

That’s his accent 😂 up north 👌🏻

It would of helped if i didnt have couple of cans that day lol

@@renovationgroup1983 🤣🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣 Ill get on to making more videos soon hopefully completly soba lol

You can mate 👍👍

We put it over scratch render all the time lol one site last week, we monocouched this block, then they realised windows were well out (shit brickies as always) so we thin coated it. Why can't you use thin coat over scratch coat ay up? Lol

Thats it mate this kid doesnt know what hes on about, no point arguing with him about it, he knows best.... lol

@@renovationgroup1983 fuck off you ya daft bastard, saying you make it look easy, more mess on the floor you spazzy bastard, plus ya finish is shit

@@kingmonk8549 go an look it up properly, done rendering for over 20 years m8, this clown on this video is a proper donkey

Cheers mate appriecate it

I can learn people who are right handed and show them with my right hand

Definatly board finish for most backgrounds its not as gritty and better for workablity

And thanks appriecate it 👍

@@renovationgroup1983 I'm just starting out can you aply one coat of multi finish and second coat it with board finish just curious because I sometimes struggle to see where I've been when second coating I'm assuming they are both different colours

You can use any finish you want to but which ever one u choose youll still need to apply a second coat to even out the suction, when applying both coats try to be consistant so youll know where u have applyed each coat and its very important tgat you flatten tge fist coat before you apply the second, ths second coat will look fresher than the first and a slightly different shade of colour, i hope that helps

@@renovationgroup1983 that's great thanx. I prefer to flatten the first coat and give it few minutes so when I do second coat it doesn't ripple because the first coat is to wet because I'm moving the first coat. Great videos. Cheers for advice. Keep videos coming

It is bad mate init

Hi thinking back i think this was chalk white but you can get tons of different shades and colour matching service with johnstones

Hi yeah its good stuff to use johnstones the basecoat is nice to use i add a bit of accelerator for this time of the year ive moved back to krend not tho as its cheaper per bag, i only put a pint of water in any more and it goes too sloppy but some people do put more in, i spray finish and float finish floating is better but more labour Intensive on large walls

Rubbing the basecoat up with a sponge float but most of the video has been cut out as it was too long

Cheers mate

No worries mate

Thanks mate, Due to the shortages i had to get multi but i definatly use board finish over all its miles better than multi and thats right it is really gritty

@@renovationgroup1983 glad you agree. I dunno why other spreads don’t use board all the time. Great video 👍🏼

No idea i love the stuff, appriecate it mate

I do this in summer mate, but in cold weather i tend to avoid doing it incase it freezes, it was cold when this job was done

Cheers mate

@@renovationgroup1983 BMS 18 V

Whats that mean mate?

Its definatly worth doing, im planning to do other courses to add on but this will take some time to set up

Cheers mate when your doing big walls you need to have it set up right meaning the tubs need to be ready per lift so you can quicky move between each section or lift, you also need to be rubbing in between putting on, ideally you could do with someone else but if you no what you are doing youll be fine on your own but you need to be organised before starting and you need to be quick while doing it also to gain a bit of time you can put it on a bit thicker and that will give you a few more minutes to handle the area, try it out and youll be fine mate

Thanks, Theres loads more on the channel mate feel free to have a look round

Thanks mate

@@renovationgroup1983 Sound, I'll bear that in mind, Thanks.

Hi, it would be best to have a go with plaster, it just depends on what type of wall your going to glide over with your trowel?

@@renovationgroup1983 just a reasonably flat wall which I’m gunna paint over. Iv done a bit of plastering before and I have always struggled with the consistency of keeping the trowel at the same angle when applying. So It just occurred to me why don’t I just practice that on a wall for 30 mins everyday for a week .... I know the angle it should be at when applying but I just can’t keep it consistent.

@@dcp6513 you could try it out but id get a bit of plasterboard and a bag of skim and practice with it

@@renovationgroup1983 thank for your input and valuable advise 🙂

@@dcp6513 no worries mate

Why not post some expert videos on your channel? Showing us all how you do it....

@@renovationgroup1983 I'm right tho aren't I 👍🏽😬👍🏽

@@renovationgroup1983 listen mate I'm just stating a fact and your getting your back up about it?? The fact of the matter is uve layed them wrong and that's the end off it have a good day!!!!!!!!
