    Hi

    I learnt how to do plastering last year and am about to set up as a weekend plasterer for an extra income. If you are practical in any way, you can always find work, garden maintainance is something else you could do for example.
  • How did you learn this? Its something I'd love to get into.

    Hi

    I used a company called https://www.tesop.co.uk (The Elite School of Plastering) based in Prestwich in N. Manchester. The school is based in an industrial unit and they have series of bays to work in that has ceiling, wall, chimney breast, and window, they also did external rendering as part of the course aswell. By the end of the course you can get a mirror finish and results you would happily live with in your own home.

    Hope that helps...

    Decent, cheap hotel round the corner too.
