DIY ****ers

Chief looks like he lives in a victorian type house.. why would he put that **** on the walls?.

BTW I'm off to Boldon tomorrow, to see some band, if you fancy it..

 

My older brother used to have hair like that but bright ginger.
Bit like this...

 

Tobes knows..

Artex ffs

 

Insulation properties.
Much need in this age of astronomical fuel bills.

 

Only hideous if its done wrong.

 

You put it on as a cover job, which h causes so many problems later..

Chavvy ****e, bit like pebble dashing..

Chief don't seem like he lives on ****ing coronation Street.

 

No mate, it’s ****ing rank even if done bang on.

 

OK hilda, hows stan?

 

He's out shooting ducks.

 

I feel like I've just played a game of defend the indefensible.
Artex is a thought one

 

I bet you have flock wallpaper ffs.

 

My walls are lovely.
Skimmed and painted.
Easy maintenance and looks good.
Here's a photo to prove it.

 

Wood chip, those were the days

 

Leccy went off in the whole street last night.
Woke up this morning and the boiler wouldn't fire up.
Which stupid **** decided to put the boiler right up there when the extension was done

 

Love the way you blanked my subtle offer for a few beers, and a bit of music tomorrow.

A simple **** of would have done...

Artex, ****ing Artex

 

No, that won't happen!

Blue grit and skim is what will, plasterer bloke came round yesterday.
He's a proper find actually, he's said what is required and won't be that the whole shebang needs doing.

He did the attic room earlier this year.

The decorator though; ****ing grand and half to paint it **** sake!



I should say I've done every other room myself and I can't be ****ing arsed to get the brushes out for this, **** it.

Hall, stairs, bannister (three k ) all sorted for a merry Christmas.

That's it, done.

 

It's 40's by the way, not Victorian

Got some daft art deco touches like the stained glass window.

You should see the fire place!

 

Mate, went right over my head.
I'm miles away from Boldon and have to be up at four on Saturday morning for a day's fishing on the Tweed.

Thanks for the offer though.

 

I grew up in a large 4 bed victorian terrace.
The whole of the hallway, stairs and landing was "artexed" in a kind of sloppy plaster. Removed it all with one of these. The walls underneath were good enough to paint after a little filling.

Stripped all the back moulds skirtings and dado rails back to bare wood and painted them back up again.
Used a blow torch to strip the many layers of very old paint. Who knew old paint contains lead?
No ****in masks in those days

 

Oh OK.. my best mate lives in a victorian house, and itsa constant job..

Didn't expect a newer build to have stained glass. But nice touch
