pmsl, I'd be out of work in no time asking for that daily amount.

£50 a day is about right.

When we had plasterers in (very good ones), the plasteres charged
£150 a day each, and they had a 16 year old apprentice acting as a
general labourer who charged £70 a day. I thought these were very
reasonable (read cheap) rates (Devon).

Thats Plasteres though, not General labouring. A 'good' plasterer is worth
his weight in gold.
Also they're labourer is part'n'partial of the team so what the plasterer
ask is irrelevent to what his labourer does.(does the mix and cleans up the
mess is not hard work). :-)
