It's not skimmed it's plasterboard. The weight comes to just under 30k. Anyways you lot are right, I can't do this and walk away callIng myself a tiler. Two of the Walls are actually block work, stripping one of them back and priming going on with a big trowel to pick up the holes and stuff. The other one of those is in good nick so priming that with p82 and going on it and the plasterboard is coming down, 12.5 marmox up and tiling. Gonna use the nicobond on the wedi and the block and gonna use powder on the final wall. It's all coming out of my pocket. Oh well, call it my good deed for the month!! Thanks to everyone for not letting me do this, dave you clinched it, you're so right. Another job with no money in it!!! Considering giving up on life and going to work in an office. Nah just kidding, would miss you lot!!
