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

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
