    Reliable, knowledgeable and respectful.

    Posted 11 July

    Darren & Scott were respectful of my flat and were pleasant to be around. Darren gave his thoughts on the original job and in the end, he brought up some excellent points. He recommended and called a sparky to help remove a radiator and close it off same day so that he could plaster the wall. There was one issue re: the agreed quoted price and the request for payment but this was resolved the next day with the quoted price standing. Would happily use Essential Plastering Services again.

    Darren and his team have done a few jobs for me and won’t hesitate to recommend them to others or use their services again in the future.

    Internal Plastering

    Posted 26 May

    I gave Darren the task to re plaster a whole 2 bedroom house. He tackled the job very well, considering all the complications we had. Overall very impressed with his work. He is very clean and tidy, and it stresses him out if there’s mess anywhere! ;) I’m glad I’ve chosen Essential Plastering to complete this work. And I won’t hesitate to get them back if I needed any more plastering work completed.
