    Hey man, i live in america and PVA is a commonplace primer in new construction over drywall. You have to understand that we don't typically use plaster hardly at all in new construction anymore, at least on the west coast. I do think its used more on the east coast, though, in restorations and high end stuff, but plaster is a totally different beast from drywall, as far as i can tell, and likely requires a different primer. Also, i think the term "pva" is a bit confusing. There is polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl acrylic, polyvinyl alchohol, and PVA glue, whatever that is. Very confusing. Acetate and acrylic are what we use on new drywall. The alchohol is used on fiberglass boats, cars, and such. The glue is a glue and not even a primer! Im reading the comment section and people are so up in arms arguing either side, but i think its mostly misunderstanding. I am a painter in california, and i think what concerns me about a video like this is homeowners will see it and think they've uncovered some dirty secret we were hiding from them, when we were really just doing the job right. Dont worry about the haters. You obviously saw a problem with the substrait and took the long, painful, but necessary steps to fix it. UA-cam comments may hate you, but your client will probably love you. Just remember that the latter are actually paying you, lol

USA... yes you are correct, I think your PVA is toatlly different to what we use.. what we have is a GLUE.. its what kids use at school to stick pasta to a piece of card and paint it with a gold rattle can of paint lol 'our' PVA is not suitable for bare plaster... it reacts with the surface and it's good for painting over. thank you for replying :)

    Hi! Excellent vid. We live in an old stone house with a brick front. The whole house was rendered with concrete in the 70s we think. We’re working on some drainage issues around the house which is causing the worst rising damp! Once the house has dried out fully in one or two summers (if we’ve sorted the drainage properly) I’m thinking we’ll do this, or it’s external insulation which will mean knocking off the exterior render and it’s expensive. Anyway, I’m going off on one - what I’d like to know is: as it’s an old house, the walls are well wonky! A feature I am fond of. Would the wall rock be easy to apply onto that or would it be a real b**ch? Would air gaps in the dips and troughs in the walls be an issue in terms of trapped condensation? Hope I’m making sense!

    Thanks for this, I’ve got moisture patches slowly developing on the inside corner of one chimney breast then another small patch inside an upstairs bedroom wall. Its a 1950’s house with a new roof. There’s no mould developing, it just feels damp to the touch. A specialist damp company said the wall is absorbing moisture from the inside. They suggested they’d replaster over these areas at a cost of £3,000! Think I’ll give this a try as the areas are relatively small.
