    Brilliant Workmanship and Great Value for Money!

    Posted 03 January

    Sometimes, you come across a tradesman that exceeds expectations in every way, and this plasterer certainly falls into that camp! From start to finish each ceiling room throughout the whole house was plastered to a great glass finish. The pre preparation was organised with each room being cleaned and tidied to a good standard as he went along. I can't highly recommend Joe enough, and whilst he wasn't avaliable immediately, it's true what they say, all good things come to those who wait. He's a great find and delivers great work!

    Reliable tradesman

    Posted 28 November 2025

    This is my third booking with Joseph Stokes which says a lot. This time he plastered a hall landing and stairs installing coving and ceiling rose, plus adding new plaster boarding section which seamlessly blends into the old wall. I had very cracked lime plaster ceilings and rough walls which now look amazing and super smooth! It's so transformational the difference it makes. Jospeh is nice to have around the house too, he also had many other tradesman skills.

    Fit and paint a reclaimed wooden door in garage, including new frame.

    Posted 15 November 2025

    As always a very positive experience with this company. Arranged a time for them to visit and quote, which went well, the price agreed and date confirmed. On the day the work was completed to a very high standard. We are really pleased with the work done and have requested further work to be completed on other projects.
