Messy Plasterer + Unsealed Slate Floor

[kilty55]

sorry andrew that sounded like a rant at you and it wasnt meant to be that way...

ive had a similar experience with a plasterer this week lol who decided to trample plaster all over a viccy floor and over the customers carpets

i know plastering is messy but i expect any trde whos attached to my work/jobs to leaver the customers house as they found it,if it was me and a plasterer made a mes sof my floors id be asking for them to clean it at there expense

on a domestic job, id totally agree with you jaime but sometimes on sites, tradesman are always doing things like this.

i was working with phil hobson last week and we were on a site in manchester. while we were there, one of the decorators walked on the victorian tiling, then a joiner was on the scaffolding and started drilling and the dust and k-rap went all over the adhesive and in the end, we had to lock the doors, make all the other trades use the back door and barracade off the front of the shop to stop people walking on the floor while we were away so site situatations cause trades to think, arr it'll all be cleaned at the end by cleaning contractors and they arnt as careful as they sometimes should be.

A good tip is to do the plastering before the floor finish is installed, if this is not possible though that roll and stroll floor protector is good stuff I find.

plastering, tiling, then skirtings should be the order (imo)

Not really, if u are a good plasterer u don't splash loads of water about and the amount of pink on the floor is minimal.
Messy plasterers give us clean ones a bad name!
