Learn How To Plaster A Wall For Beginners (START TO FINISH)

[@juliadraper178]

Absolutely brilliant. Clearly spoken, with no stupid rock music! Well done and thank you.

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you very much!!

[@Magnus_E]

ahahah I can recognise plastering videos from their music. :) Sadly we don't have Britisch Gipsum in EU... Can't find the equivalent/similar here...

[@mealwan2405]

You a better teacher than my boss, thanks to you im not gonna get fired

[@ruhelamin1952]

Unless your boss reads this 😏

[@tiana2906]

🤣😂

[@user-vp4zf7bd3t]

I’ve been plastering for over 15 years. I see a lot of videos on KZbin that are absolute nonsense. This is not 1 of them. This is how to plaster to the nvq textbook. Been wanting to teach the labourer but been to busy. This video will be the perfect watch for him.

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you very much! I really appreciate that pal - hope your labourer liked it 👍

[@tessmonro7102]

Thank you so much. You explained the process very well. I'm 70 and am going to plaster a small utility room while my husband is away overseas but I think I'll have to watch your video a few times first.

[@Inkwaziflyfishing]

Blaine, I just wanted to say thank you for your efforts with your tutorials. I have undertaken many handyman projects over the years, kitchens, bathrooms, tiles, cupboards etc but I was scared of plastering. Your tutorials provided me the confidence to undertake some plastering work and eventually the confidence to buy a run down cottage in Wales (a dream of mine) and start renovating it. I have just finished ripping out an entire lathe and plaster ceiling (which was sagging badly), fitting new 5 x 2 joists, reboarding it and plastering the ceiling. My first ever attempt at a ceiling. Without your input I would likely never have my dream cottage, or a new lifestyle and I can't thank you enough. Your efforts don't just provide people with skills, but in this case really contributed to a whole new home in a whole new, and lovely place and a new start in life in a wonderful adventure in rural Wales. I have returned to the UK from South Africa and my wife will join me shortly in our new home. Your efforts have contributed significantly to the success of the project.. !!!

[@elizabethjudy6340]

Thank you, Blaine!! I learned more from you than anyone else.

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you for watching! Glad to hear it’s helped you 👍

[@skelly790]

After watching this about five times I skimmed my first wall after removing some original blown plaster. It looks a bit patchy drying out, but it’s smooth and flat. There are a few bits that will need filling, but the edges are all good. It’s getting papered anyway, and I’m pleased with the result. Next job is an upstairs loo over plasterboard, which should be easier. If that turns out OK I’ll have saved about £700, so cheers for the video.

[@paulhenderson9585]

I’ve plastered 15 years and your tuition is mint .you put it on that well one coat would have been good but 2 is always best.I never work out the bucket anymore I put it on a spot board hip high saves a hell a lot of work as you get older.it’s a hard game

[@glenwarren4351]

Plaster from California never understood working out of a bucket l would not be in this trade 45 years working that way we refer to your spot as a mud board

[@matthewwest7195]

Just wanted to say thank you so much to Blaine. The variety of great videos, advice and honest walk throughs has helped me learn so so much. I watched most videos again and again as I always miss bits and it’s always a pleasure coming back to the channel. Understanding how plaster reacts and works isn’t something you can read in a book. My first attempt after 2 weeks of near non stop watching vids and buying correct tool (love the speedskim) turned out really well and friends tell me it looks like a pro did it. Blaine is a true diamond, I offered to donate as a thank you and wouldn’t accept any money. I’ll be coming back again and again to these vids as I do more renovations and am looking forward to future vids. Absolutely great teacher. Words can’t describe. Peace and love

[@wassupjg]

what a nice bloke, blaine is what makes youtube great, these are the guys who always have lots of work lined up, would certainly employ him as a plasterer

[@ay9859]

Your explanation and pointing out the important stuff is awesome!! Every plaster should see this, thanks!

[@palaminceesay9642]

I am new to your channel but you are in my view an excellent teacher. I am your latest fan ...I just subscribed!!

[@shaun...6838]

We need more people like you on here. Brilliant video I learnt a lot already. Thankyou

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you mate! That means a lot 😊

[@ThePlasterer]

So true

[@duncanbeech23]

Nice one mate, lots of useful info. Will get the rest of the course.

[@krisMcA82]

Hi mate .. just want you to know how grateful I am to you making these videos. I put myself through a plastering course , work with my mate and he try’s to wind me at every stupid little point , says things like “only a time served plasterer can master that” ,when it’s just skimming walls I’VE done 😂 and he’s been off , just stupid little things BUT see the tips from yourself and all the added little plastering lingo has done me proud. Thank you Please please keep making videos

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you for watching and well done for your perseverance! Respect my friend 👍

[@djp4206]

It took me a very long time to be a decent plasterer i went from being a labourer to polishing to flattening out to putting on working backwards works well noing how to use a trowel and how it works is the key not putting on straight away but this fella is the only pro plasterer on here what noes what there doing

[@1st-Le-On]

This video is so good! No bullshit music or time lapse just clear descriptIon, thankyou x I just muddled my way through one side of stud wall seperating 2 bedrooms, the 2nd side will be loads better i feel!

[@shimarlie1]

Blaine. You're a fantastic educator mate. I came away really understanding the key points you were trying to get across. Brilliant.

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Much appreciated! Thank you for watching my friend. Means a lot 👍

[@godwinmpazi1560]

Best British teacher ever..Very humble,less humour,disciplined and understands problems learners might suffer from.God bless you Sir

[@modbod75]

I recently purchased the online plastering course and today is the first chance I've had to put it to the test. 2 valuable lessons learnt first being don't use cheap buckets as the bloody thing cracked as I was near the top of the stairs resulting in a bucket of muck tumbling everywhere. Second is you have more time than you think when working with plaster. I'd plastered one wall and had loads left over so I started a second and flitted between the 2 and I'm really happy with the results. Thanks once again Blaine for the videos!

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Hi mate, thanks for getting the course. I really appreciate it! Haha this made me laugh since that happened to me when I started - was it a £1 B&Q bucket by any chance ha?? That's great that you managed to get 2 walls on at the same time - sounds like you nailed it pal. Hope it still continues to go the same way and thanks again for going for it. Cheers pal 👍

[@modbod75]

It was a B & Q bucket 😂

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Brilliant 😂

[@modbod75]

@Lee Hollebon hello mate, I've found it a really good and useful start to plastering. My reason for buying was to save money on our extension and I've certainly done that. Although my walls aren't perfect every one I've done has been better than the last. Blaine does some great videos on you tube and I would recommend his on line course.

[@auggiepereira960]

loads of info for a beginner and looks less messy would definitely have a go and take your points. thanks for the video

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you for the comment and good luck ☺️

[@zamirazram9070]

As a time served tradesman mainly in plumbing and carpentry ..I now teach practical skills in secondary schools in UK. I have plastered on few occasions..since I've been diagnosed with the c ..I have months off work doing nowt...I'm hooked on your videos ...the old school tools and the new tools you have talked about I'm looking to up my skills on plastering...I managed to plaster my walls before op... When I'm up and running I'd love to spend a day with you just to pick on site tips... Zam

[@Kispoopsik]

You're a great teacher: clear and specific, detailed and with a good pace. And on top of that, well sexy! Thanks for this tutorial.

[@Ryan-om5yi]

Agreed, very sexy.

Haha brilliant! Well done

[@RafaelAsh-h6x]

Very good teacher you are showing slowly to make me understand

[@carolinewright7844]

This has got to be the best video I’ve watched for beginners 👏👏 I’ve never plastered before but I am going to attempt plastering my toilet ceiling. I’ve removed all the artrex/texture. You’ve really given me the confidence that I can do this 🫣 I’m going to save your video and play/pause as I go! If you want I’ll post a before and after, don’t be afraid to criticise as I really want to learn. Thank you 👍 Caroline, over 60 from UK 🇬🇧 and getting the job done ✅🤣

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you Caroline! I really appreciate that - it means a lot to me!! I’d love to see your results and I wish you luck. You can do this 👍👍

[@jleondomingos7783]

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you for watching my friend - I really appreciate your kind words 👍

[@dazd240]

You made it looks so easy because you already know how to do it!

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

[@SanderAkkermans]

yo bro, you let me learn plastering (like all the others who makes videoś, but you were the only one who teached me to speed myself up, very good tips! thanx from nijmegen

[@THEUNDEADMIDGET]

Great video, you're a natural teacher mate. You go through all of the bits, the things to practice, the tools the terminology, I feel like a plasterer already and ive only just watched the video!

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that - it means the world to me 👍

[@shakool2kool]

Youre a better teacher compared to the others! Tks!!

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you mate. I really appreciate that 👍

[@eamontaylor4626]

Hi Blaine. I’m not a plasterer / good start.I’m a handyman doing different small jobs.Plasters x 2 arrived on a job to replace some drywall that was damaged in a kitchen. The board was cut / scrim tape applied/ then mixed Plaster of Paris powder into the bonding and plastered over the scrim. Apparently according to them/ it dries quick and doesn’t crack or shrink.

[@kalmorgan2467]

Watched some of your videos and plastered two long walls due to budget! Not perfect, but very good first attempt according to a plasterer (that I hired to do harder walls)! Thank you for your videos, much appreciated. Huge respect for the profession.

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thank you for watching and respect for trying. All the best pal 👍

[@danmcdonald1050]

Been doing this a few years now as a novice and I'm not too bad now. This is a good tutorial for beginners. Thanks for dedicating the time to explain the techniques. To all those who thumbed it down let's see you explain it any better!

[@BlueNETGaming]

I am wanting to learn and start doing it but was afraid to do it. Your easy to follow explanation gave me that push to just do it.. thanks 🙏

[@gypsygem9395]

I've subscribed. I have a house where at least two walls need plastering, so your video will be very helpful when I actually get round to doing them. I'll of course watch your other uploads meanwhile! Thank you

[@PlasteringForBeginners]

Thanks for watching mate and I really appreciate you subscribing. All the best with the house and I look forward to hearing your results in the future! Cheers 👍

[@suziepindar2525]

I have recently been on a course and got myself a unpaid plastering job soon and found your video most helpful! I have subscribed now and going to use your videos till I get confident in my practise. Thanks so much!

Good on you and well done my friend! Keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing your results in the future 😉

[@ex1036]

This was an good watch (all the way to the end). And now I know plastering isn't for me. At least I know/appreciate the process. Thanks for sharing.

[@josephf1985]

2nd coat tomorrow :/?

[@leebasten123]

Never do 2nd coat the next day ,it’s just like starting again

[@MsFated]

Really appreciate the slower teaching here especially the trowel techniques. I knew that would be something I would struggle with as a first timer. Thanks for making this video!!

[@Jamal_dont_mess]

Thank you for good lesson, o always wanted to learn about some of these work,as by doing it myself it will obviously save some money.

Probs the best instruction for beginners I've seen.. I'm a floor layer by trade and use a lot of feather finish on ply and solid floors. And it's a similar thing. Granted I've got gravity on my side 😁. But it's still a total skill and art to get it right. And this is a belter to get you going.. Nice one mate..🙌

[@dereksmith9214]

All I can say is that your videos are really clear and informative. Moved intomy house that needs redeveloping throughout and done a couple of rooms but got a plasterer in. I really like my DIY and would be proud to say "I done all this" with more jobs so as everything is getting more expensive I am going to give the plastering a go myself and starting in a small closet. Missed out on a chance for the email tutorials but want to thank you for your advice, help, tips and clear demonstrations. HERE GOES !!!!

[@christopheranderson5301]

Excellent video, explanation, tips. Currently building a media wall and all walls and ceiling need plastering. Been debating getting a plasterer in but after your videos im going to give it a go. Worried about attempting the ceiling but will watch your videos lots more time and do the ceiling and one wall at a time. Thanks again man, great content. 👍

How'd it go? Want to try myself but had someone shit all over that idea by telling me they watched someone they knew try and failed.

im a spark...and up until now ...have only done bonding coat....now im doing refurbs and needed to learn how to plaster correctly. i mean proper, this guy has taken me through the entire process...and i am already getting smooth marble looking plaster after what i thought was one step....turns out its about 7 stages...first coat, flatten, second thinner coat, flatten, sponge, flatten lines, wet trowel, and cross trowel, and dry trowel ..... i learned the hard way , not to cut corners and get that excess platster off your coving and wood ...IMMEDIATELY... I plastered ceiling, then left it for about a month...thought oh ill go and scrape off the excess on the coving........took ME 2 BLOODY DAYS UP A LADDER TO GET AROUND THE WHOLE ROOM..had to use a stanley knife and meticulousy scrape it off inch by inch...LESSON LEARNED. THIS GUY IS THE KING OF PLASTERING.....YOU CAN learn to be a professional plasterer, just by following this guys training, like an apprentice.
