im in need of some more dust sheets, anyone got any recommendations, whats the best ones to get, what ones to avoid.......and any one know of any bargins at present....as we all like a bargin..

Roll and stroll sheets are far better.... trade tilers sell em...
stays down for length of job, no washing and laundry costs,

I got a set of 7 off ebay 18 months ago, 5 12ft x 9ft and 2 stair runners, 7 *LARGE DUST SHEETS 100% COTTON TWILL*(INC 2 STAIRWAY) | eBay top quality, all still going strong.

i buy twill sheets
tried roll n strollbut its too costly job after job

Have a mate who works for Pickfords removals.

Hugh great thick sheets that I have been using for years.

I use all sorts, curtains, bed sheets anything to protect the floor/bath/worktop.

you could try your local decorators centre,they usually have good dust sheets

thanks bri just had a look, seems you can buy any quantity you want and they seem to be the best price, i shall order some in the morning..

stax if you have a local branch
i got pack of 3 cotton twill 2 big squares and a stair runner
for £11

just got a stax book through the door,never heard of them but it seems they are in edinburgh...a few decent offers in it as well

thats funny they must be doing a promo i got one through the door today as well, might join and go and have a look..

The cotton sheets with the plastic lining underneath are a good job.

same as...cotton sheets with plastic underneath .Few times in past spent cleaning carpet after blob of addy on bottom of boot gone through normal cotton dust sheet.use off cuts of lino/carpet for shower trays etc (got from local carpet fitting firm,no charge),and bought loads of new shower curtains when at bargain price (diff shops) about £1.50/£2.00. very handy for those small spaces.easy to clean and keep things clean and covered.

Shower curtains, I like that idea. Maybe avoid putting them on the stairs though!

i only use the shower curtains for small areas,or to cover up on domestic jobs.also use them under cutting area when building studs etc,no matter what vac/dust bag ive used there is always some saw dust on floor ,just pick up the corners of curtain and pour into ruble bag/bucket etc,nice and small/smooth enough for this.

If we are on a job for more than 2 days it Roll and Stroll.
Otherwise I cut big 12' sheets down to 2' strips for walkways and worktops, works out about £1 a strip! (by the time I'am down to my vest the client has usually left).

get mine from the local council

my brother is a decorator for them
