10 Very helpful and great guy.

Dave came to the rescue with a recent bathroom refurbishment when tile removal took the plaster off requiring a reskim at short notice. Having quoted based on photos, he gave us a price and gave up his time on a Saturday to complete the job. Upon completion he reduced the price upon as the job was not as involved as he’d assessed, great respect for his work ethic and integrity. Thanks Dave, you got us out of a hole.Verified reviewerJob location: SO4510 Plaster coved lounge ceiling and walls

Dave was punctual and friendly. He carried out the work on our ceilings efficiently and professionally within the estimated time scale. He went above and beyond and even managed a couple of other small jobs within the quote. He and Sid were extremely polite and it was a pleasure doing business with them. We would definitely ask them back to carry out future work and we have no hesitation in recommending them.Verified reviewerJob location: SO1510 Artex removal
