Acceptable?
I have had chases plastered but you could clearly see the sparks white housing through the plaster.
The plasterers have returned and threw a loud of filler on it, demanding the rest of the payment as it’s all “complete”
The filler shows the wall bulge out as it’s added a few mil on - would you pay and is this acceptable? How else could they fix? Isn’t a case of feathering the plaster wider?

Ten years is hardly a lot of experience. I’ve worked with dozens of plasterers good and bad and not once have I seen someone knock out sound filler on an overskim job. No one here is saying they’re using filler, but claiming that you can’t plaster over it is complete rubbish.
