SmoothOver or Plasterer?

[GhostOfDixie]

Anyone used this product?

I am no decorator, but I am doing my office and I thought it **** it I'll have a go.

The walls though are an absolute disgrace, but I'm not prepared to pay for an expensive plasterer. So this SmoothOver from Polycell is meant to do the job, and having just made one attempt using the smaller tub I have seen some results.

However, the walls are that bad, that I'm going to need loads of the stuff.

Anyone know a good plasterer who may be prepared to do a bit of a job trade. I'll do a website for them, and they do the plastering for me.

I think i've used something similar called "Top Coat". It's not really meant for large areas, just repairs.

Oh right, SmoothOver is for large areas.

There is a girl where I work says she uses Christian Dior Foundation to cover all sorts of problems, I'm not too sure myself and suspect it may be expensive.

Your timing is a bitch, my brother-in-law has a plastering business & has just had a website set up for his new industrial cleaning venture. I can pass his number over if you want though

Just need a quote really. How much for say 4 walls worth? Ballpark figure.

In my experience I would think using a specialised d.i.y product such as 'Polycell Smoothover" would workout more expensive than getting a plasterer in to crash the job off traditionally.
