10 Stairs and landing plastering
Posted 2 days ago
I cannot recommend these guys highly enough. They have just finished plastering my entire stairs and landing, and the results are absolutely amazing—the walls are perfectly smooth. Not only is their workmanship top-tier, but they went completely above and beyond. They were incredibly friendly, arrived on time, and left the house absolutely spotless when they finished, cleaning up every bit of mess. To top it all off, the pricing was fantastic and very fair for the massive amount of work they did. If you need any plastering done, do yourself a favor and hire them. 10/10 service!Verified reviewerJob location: NP44 - RRosemary S

Ibrahim and his team have just finished rendering the outside of our house and we are thrilled with the results. They have worked incredibly hard, putting in long hours each day to get the job done to a high standard with excellent attention to detail. They cleaned up daily, even cleaning the front of our neighbours porch, which was covered in the dust from the removal of the old render. They have finished the job, making sure we were happy with the results, leaving the site cleaner than before they started. Outstanding. Would definitely have a quote for future work.Verified reviewerJob location: NP44- CClare F

I would highly recommend Ibrahim. From start to finish, he has been reliable, flexible, and extremely accommodating to our needs. He communicated well throughout the project and was always willing to adapt when unexpected issues arose. The work was completed efficiently and to a high standard, with great attention to detail. Ibrahim is professional, hardworking, and takes pride in delivering quality results. He is also very well-mannered, respectful, and a pleasure to deal with, which made the whole experience stress-free. His pricing was fair and represented excellent value for money, partiVerified reviewerJob location: NP16 9.67 Reliability, flexibility, bathrooms, plastering

The team at Ala have carried out several jobs for me over the past few months, including: 1x full bathroom refit (inc full tiling) 1x en-suite refit (inc full tiling) 1x WC refit (inc half-tiling) 1x complete 8x4m living room re-plastering The company have been my go-to for these jobs because of their flexibility, reliability, competitive pricing and each day cleaned up after themselves. No issue whatsoever in recommending them for bathrooms, plastering or any other jobs that you may have.Verified reviewerJob location: NP19
