Hi.
I have just move a toilet , re-tiled, found spare space under the stairs which is converted into a cubby hole, and fixed a squeaky staircase with new wedges.

Now I have to fix it all up again before second fix.

I have never plastered before. But have a decent set of hands .. I have taped a few boards in the past.

My question is.
1. for behind the toilet. How do I use scrim tape onto existing plaster? The corners and the top joint in perticular.

2. Under the stair case. I have retained the large bit of plaster board that came out in one piece. I was intending to screw in some grounds and refit to old bit with old plaster still on it. What would be the best way to hide the joint?

Thanks. PS.. Use gloves when you use Gorilla glue. I learned the hard way..
