\n

Plan the work area<\/h2>\n

Review approved drawings, materials, access, storage, sequence and interfaces. Confirm that preceding trades have completed substrates and waterproofing to the required condition.<\/p>\n

Organise tools, cutting zones, dust controls and protection before delivery.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Accept and prepare substrates<\/h2>\n

Measure flatness, levels and residual moisture with the specified method. Map cracks and joints and verify repairs.<\/p>\n

Select compatible primers, levelling and setting materials within the approved system.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Execute layouts and details<\/h2>\n

Set out rooms, thresholds, stairs and wall returns so joints align with architecture and movement. Coordinate cut-outs and edge profiles with drawings.<\/p>\n

Maintain full support, consistent joints and clean workmanship.<\/p>\n

\n

Troubleshoot without improvising<\/h2>\n

Identify causes of poor adhesion, excessive lippage, rapid skinning, staining or inconsistent joints. Stop when conditions exceed product or project limits.<\/p>\n

Do not solve programme pressure by changing water ratios, mixing systems or covering moisture.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Lead communication and handover<\/h2>\n

Coordinate with supervisor, designer and other trades using photographs and measurements. Explain natural variation without dismissing workmanship issues.<\/p>\n

Protect completed work, close snags and deliver cleaning and maintenance guidance.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
