As with the previous question about building a conservatory, all I can do is state that general building tasks are not my field. Plastering is one of the Dark Arts and so you need the advice of someone 'in the know', which ain't me!

From what little I do know about plastering, I think Dot'n'Dab is the usual method, but I'm probably wrong!

Cheers anyway i will dot and dab the ceiling and if they come down I'm to blame, its just a wanted to fix batons to the ceiling but the concrete is that thick and stony i may not get it plugged so i will dot and dab.
