    Partial lounge and bedroom wall plastering

    Posted 6 days ago

    Chris was asked to plaster a bay window recess and try to overcome a poor original build issue which he did with first class results. He also plastered a bedroom wall to compliment some work he did on a previous visit which was excellent. We would not hesitate to ask Chris to quote again if needed

    Bedroom wall

    Posted 15 April

    I am very disappointed and angry with the outcome of Chris’s plastering . He replastered a bedroom wall, I explained to him we had a damp problem for a long time and he never tested the wall for dampness. Finished the work in two days, which I thought was quite rushed. I phoned him and told him the wall still looks wet, even after a couple of weeks went by. I thought because of winter temperatures it needs time, but no never got dry. He will of course defend himself, but I have been so stressed over this and have lost out on £700 pounds it’s so unfair.

    Response from Chris Matthews Plastering

    Madam I am devastated by this, re-plastered back wall as asked. Hacked off by yourself, externally rendered by your contractors to sort damp issue. I offered you options of independent damp specialists before plastering if not confident of rendering process, you declined with cost issues. Wall completely dry during works in your presence. I heard from you 2 weeks later regarding drying time, not again for 5 months. You seemed reluctant to contact renderers when we last spoke. Job carried out in time specified at cost agreed, labour and materials less than you listed with your thanks upon completion. I value all of my Checkatrade customers, including you and my reviews are a source of great pride to me, all online. I'm so sorry you feel this way and I hope you find a resolution with your damp problems. All the best, Chris
