Holly sh.t! It looks like they will have to scrape the plaster all the way to the seams and put the new one. I dont think patching up will do the job as the rest of the ceiling may start peeling off again and eventually it would also fall down I would say few days work including drying it out...

BTW: Did you have any short circuit related explosion in the past (just looking at the lamps)?

I know no kitchen for me until next week we are having a big party for my daughter on sunday aswell grrrrrrrrr ok i guess it will be a talking point. they have to take the rest of the ceiling down and replaster it all, just glad no one was in the kitchen.

LOL that made me pee thanks for cheering me up who knows with me probably anything can happen. I am shocked the whole flats not blown up by now

... and it all started from a little DELL power supply unit...

LOL anything could happen when i am around, but yes let`s blame the bleep Laptop

Poor Mrs Sutter - you're even more unlucky than me...

Do you remember "Unlucky Alf"?? Was it "The Fast Show"

looks like the lightbulb are to big (Watts 100 watt )

smille ,my wife blames me for everything ,and I am not allowed on top off her lap

Something like this?



The ceiling will need to be stripped back to completely sound areas. That may mean the whole ceiling. It should easily be done inside one day. I had three rooms plastered in under four hours including preparation and clearing up

Looking at that I reckon you could strip the rest of that in a couple of hours, then you are just be paying for the guys to plaster.... the saving would probably pay for your daughters party.... but with your luck full saftey harness, and hard hat would be required

Certainly a simple enough job to strip off the loose plaster:
Clear the kitchen and, preferably, cover surfaces with dust sheets.
Scrape off the loose plaster. Use a good step ladder and wear goggles.

Hardest part of the job: find some way to get rid of the plaster that complies with all the regulations

I am not paying for the men to do it as the flat is rented and well LOL if i did try and do it i dread to think what would happen

I think i must be the most unluckiest person on this bloody planet

Thanks Kitchen is cleared and to tell you the truth it is flippin awful when you talk in it it echos and feels really horrible. My lounge looks terrible aswell as everything as been dumped in it

Strip it all

LOL you never fail to make me laugh thanks, does anyone have any dinamite i feel like blowing the place up

**** **** ****, the man as just finished pulling my ceiling down and told me i am not allowed in the kitchen so now i have a big problem, my mother-in-law is coming over tonight to babysit the kids and bringing food with her which she can warm up in the micro (which is currently sitting on my lounge floor), but i have no plates, cups folks, spoons e.t.c, and what the hell do i do for breakfast

Not allowed in the kitchen even to access fridge and cupboards with plates/cutlery???

I thought they worked on the ceiling and not on the floor???

Sorry to hear that Sutter. They should be able to get your kitchen back the following day, ok without paint! but plaster dries in about 12 hours then needs to be left before painting!

No grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

They have covered the whole kitchen in plastic looks something like out of a horror movie when there is a virus and people have been infected have to go in i had to wash my dinner plates in the sink bathroom, then when i went to put them on the side to dry them they fell off and smashed on the floor

Thanks tomorrow night i can have it back, then next week they will come back and paint it, my son just came and told me he his hungry and i have nothing to give him, the man is still here cleaning up so i can`t go out and buy him anything
