    Great price, excellent service and friendly.

    Posted 3 days ago

    James was extremely professional, friendly and helpful. His work has been excellent and speedy and his communication was great. I am very happy with the plastering. He cleaned up very well, was respectful and worked independently and quickly. Very highly recommended.

    James visited on Saturday morning to fix up the ceiling in our external attached shed - insulating, fitting dry board and skimming. Quick and efficient, and a very good standard of work. We're very happy!

    Small plastering work

    Posted 23 December 2025

    We had a small piece of plastering needed, and James was able to fit us in at short notice. He was very friendly, and did a really lovely job - the finish is like glass! Very happy with how he worked, and the outcome - would definitely ask him to do more work for us if needed, and would happily recommend.

    Ceiling repair

    Posted 26 November 2025

    James was very pleasant and friendly. He arrived early and cleared the room. James did a great job on over boarding and plastering the ceiling which part of had come down due to a hole in the roof. James cleared up after, replacing the furniture and hoovering up. I am grateful to James as my aunt is elderly and I had to leave early. Thank you James for a lovely job. Would Definitely recommend Hancock Construction.
