My poor hubby is working on the house right now. It is nearly 12 am. He is doing gyprock for the room.
I know people might be thinking why we are doing it ourselves. Or rather himself.
One of our room, we called it second room was filled with wallpaper. The plaster beneath are all falling apart. I mean literally, turning into ashes. Some parts are alright. We got a professional to get a quote. And this is what we got:
Walls and ceiling for one room: $5000.
To DIY: max $500
WHY WOULD I PAY $5000? Got money also wont spend it like that.
I can describe the job in simple words. It is basically apply glue (plaster glue), paste the gyprock and nail it. But because my ceiling is 3m. Normal ceiling is 2.4m. The problem lies with getting the last gyprock up the top wall. We need a big kingkong to do that. If not someone really tall or someone daring enough to climb up the ladder and put it up.
This is what hubby achieved so far:
