    Ceiling replacement and repaIr of water damage.

    Posted 09 July

    Mark Gore responded to our Check a Trade enquiry first and with the help of photographs of the damage quickly gave a quote which we thought quite reasonable. Mark was helpful about timing, arrived on schedule and completed the work in the time stated. Very tidy and the plasterwork looks excellent. He charged the price he quoted. We would certainly ask him for help again.

    Mark was great. Very reliable. Good communication and a great job plastering our two daughters’ bedroom ceilings. Would definitely recommend.

    Resurface textured ceiling, skim two walls and window recess. Permanent crack repair.

    Posted 10 May

    Cracking where an extension wall joined the original house was repaired using a 'floating' replaster (using wire mesh to isolate natural movement from the surface). Textured ceiling reboarded and plastered. Two walls skimmed, plus skim on the left and right window recess. Mark completed the work in four days, he was reliable and professional. Mark even gave me a tutorial, with hands-on practice, "how to plaster", when I expressed interest. Clearly, a very experienced plasterer who has also completed many other types of building work over the years.

    Mark did an excellent job of plastering a wall and section of ceiling that was damaged during DIY. His communication was great, he was very pleasant, and did a very professional job. Would definitely contact again!

    Plastering 3x ceilings + wall

    Posted 10 January

    We needed our artex ceilings smoothed over and plastered. Mark did a fantastic job - 3 ceilings plus an extra wall in less than a week. Worked long hours every day to get the job done. Also left the house spotless after his visit. Communication was excellent throughout. Price was also very good. Would highly recommend.

    Plastering around loft hatch

    Posted 29 November 2024

    This is the second time Mark has done work for us, having plastered our whole house in 2019. He did a fantastic job again, he arrived on time, was very understanding and flexible, and we would highly recommend him.
