Plasterer not sure whether to come this year or next??
Hi Guys
My partner is a plasterer and we were presently looking in to selling our house and moving out to Perth this year but with the recent slump in building work out there would we be better off leaving it until next year (hopefully when the situation might of improved).
Your advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
Debbie

Hi deb
I dont know if you know(sounds like a secret) but they dont do wet plasterering like we do here,they mainly do tape n jointing and outside rendering!
Also depending on the state,our uk qualifications means nowt!
Im a wet plasterer with a bit of tape n jointing knowledge,will prob have to retrain in a new job once we land in melbourne,due to not being able to trace my nvq papers that i never received just over 10 years ago (fingers crossed) @ the end of the year!

Depends on whether your house sells as much as anything else. It's a hard one to advise on. Who knows what things will be like next year. Most people will have an opinion but they will all be different
