Well when you get set up and I get the cash together, my house needs replastering.

Seriously, give us a shout when you get settled - we are looking for quotes. I live near Freo.

I was a 15 yr exp plasterer,who worked for myself in the uk and moved here 6 weeks ago!

2nd week here went round asking folks and i got a start with a "Hanging guy" who just put up plasterboard,after 1hr he was a minime horrible rude mother son of a biatch,how i lasted 2 weeks i never know,but in the end i said i gotta walk or ill kill ya!

Then sent a few emails off and got a call back from a gezza who runs a big plastering(tape n jointing company) and gave me a start last week,and we hang boards/tape n joint/sand!
Not used to days of sanding but its stress free and he is paying me cool for someone who hasnt taped n jointed before(still waiting to have a go).
Oh and the lads i work with are all good guys:thumbsup:
