Busy day today on my day off.

My mum had a small leak in the roof, a couple of tiles were broke, water was getting in and dripping on the ceiling of the small bedroom. the tiles have now been replaced, but it did leave a water stain on the ceiling. Mum did try and paint the ceiling but that did not cover it.

So today I removed the old plasterboard, put up new plasterboard and re-plastered the ceiling.

Good Job .... Did you use skrim tape on the joints ?

Very good job.

Was the insurance not working? I only ask as I'm a lazy tight b*gg*r

 

[paul04]

Yes I used skrim tape on the joints, have to do the job right

It only cost £15 to repair the ceiling, so not worth claiming on the insurance.a mate put the 2 new tiles in place for £10.
