  • Is it possible? Yes!
    Can you earn that as a plasterer every day? Maybe
    In this video I will break it down and show you step by step how it's possible for a plasterer to make £1k in a day when you understand about Artex, limewash paint and plasterboard.
    I hope you enjoy this video and appreciate the work that goes into making content like this.
    I genuinely enjoy making these videos.
    If you would like to buy me a nice cold one then you can do that just here.

    I was so moved by what you did for that man and his family. I'm a retired carpenter and now volunteer for guide dogs for the blind and in doing so feel so enriched. My late father was a plasterer and during school holidays I worked with him so I know how physically hard your job is, you gave that family the most precious precious gift YOUR TIME. Your good deeds might seem invisible but they leave a trail imprinted on the hearts of others.

I normally do a free job once a year at Christmas anyway. I thought I was on my own doin’ that type of caper, but it seems my mate kirky boy does the same sh%t. It’s a blessing we can give a little back to those important enough who need it. Proud of ya kid!

    I remember artexing a ceiling in an older house back in the late 80s , that all fell off , sure enough lime wash underneath. I also remember scraping dozens of artex ceilings flat and often without bothering to even put a mask on . Health and safety awareness virtually non-existent back then. I'm a painter but i still enjoy the vids mate , you look like you got a decent apprentice there , lovely gesture at the end , you're right it feels really nice helping somebody else out from time to time 👍

He got his ceilings for free, and you got the admiration from everyone that watches your channel. I said right from the start that you were going to be a star! You are a shining example of a decent skilled trades person. Your apprentice has a lot to live up to, following in the big man's shoes. Super start Kirk to the rescue again. Well done!! HEALTH & FAMILY.. 100% everytime! Wishing you and your family good health.

    For people watching plastering a ceiling is hard work. Just try holding your arms above your head and see you long you can do it. Never mind with weight of plaster. And they have to work in a certain time to do the second part of rubbing it smooth. Very hard work being a plasterer.Well done mate.👍

    A couple of years ago I was minding my our business sat in my van and a guy knocks on mi widow distraught asking if I would decorate his bedroom as his wife was dying of cancer and ultimately be bed bound and he wanted it nice for her.
    I did it for free least I could do it took a small bit of pressure of him.
    Unfortunately for me I don’t have a successful UA-cam channel like you Kirk 😂

    Great gesture Kirk i done similar a few years ago for an elderly couple builder built shell & roof drawed all the money & wasn’t seen again we done the lot plastered fitted kitchen floors the lot . What we didn’t no was he took the builder to court & won but he never said a word the local paper told me a month after we finished. I think your right look after your family . But for me trust no one because you think people are honest but sometimes their well you no what I mean . People see weakness in kindness I’m sorry to say
