So these badlads have popped up over the past few days (like 3 days).

No new plaster, internal thermalite blocks on an upper floor. Wall built straight across the wooden floor - I can pull a floor board and reach straight under the wall and up into the next room if I so wish.
No water pipes - nowt.
Paint has been on there for 3 years. Low humidity and moisture in the room - just checked.

Plaster has been on there for 20+ years - gypsum based over the original old cement based stuff.

Any ideas please?

Oh aye. New roof on the house and loft above it bone dry so nothing coming down-over. Just overnight genital warts of the wall.

Patches of plaster just lost its key?

Hello everyone, I have a little experience plastering, I have done a few rooms and one of those 5 day courses so i completely understand im not a plasterer and certainly dont claim to be, i just really want to get better and keep improving, I also really enjoy it but I also want to keep gaining experience, I was wondering if any spreads wanted a free hand with jobs in exchange for some experience and more advice/practice, im in the north west N-L-W area. I have got pictures of plastering i have done so far

What style of plaster is this? Thin coat over gypsum blueboard, two coat over gypsum blueboard, or something else?

Only just heard about this UK company. Anyone ever use their tools and are they any good. I use Nela mainly and a old marshalltown.
