I honestly don't know - I'm just going to keep pushing as hard as I can. I'm waiting for the plasterer to quote, so that I can get him booked - that'll be a major deadline then!
I'm hoping to rally the troops this weekend and get some more ceilings out - to be honest, the biggest issue I'm having day to day is waste disposal. The drive entrance is too small to get a skip on (And too big a task to sort right now due to concrete posts and tees!)
Good work. Plumbing easy though, get a blow torch and solder ring fittings and give it a bash!
I've cheated - I helped a plumber friend of mine fit a mahoosive RSJ across the whole width of his house last summer (Big open plan extension) and now I've called in the favour ;)
Else yeah, I'd have had a shot - but to be honest, doing the electrics has given me enough to think about!
Lath and plaster is horrible stuff to take down. Done that a few times and it just makes so much black dust. Good to be rid of it though.
I haven't looked at your pics because I fell asleep watching a YouTube video and my WiFi disconnected and bite I've used almost all my data allowance til next month.
It's so filthy. I only extended my loft hatch in August but the amount of black dust and shite that came down was ridiculous.
Yep - that's the stuff, absolutely crazy stuff. Think we're going to overboard the upstairs bedrooms
I reskimmed two rooms last summer on top of lath and plaster. It was not good.
have you spoken to any skip companies? most can come up with something - lots will drop over a garden wall if that's possible (actually easy if it's low enough)
Yes. Badly. And then sold it before the cracks showed through :C
Borrowed a small scaffold tower off a mate to do it - 12 foot high ceilings, NOT FUN!
