10 Stud wall plastering
Posted 12 March
Karl was very helpful and prompt with communications and providing a fair quote. We wanted to get the job done within one day if possible and Karl was very obliging and turned up early to get everything finished very promptly. The standard of work is excellent and we would definitely recommend and use him again. Many thanks Karl!Verified reviewerJob location: SS6- VVictoria A
9.33 Patch hole in ceiling
Posted 11 December 2025
Karl came round to provide a quote to fix a hole in my upstairs ceiling after I managed to put my foot straight through it whilst in the loft. The quote was very reasonable, could match the artex (others couldn't). Fit me in at short notice (wanted it done before Xmas), turned up on time, turned the job around quickly and was very tidy. Would highly recommend. A bit of paint and no one needs to know!Verified reviewerJob location: SS6 10 Plastering hallway jpb

This is the not the first time I have asked Karl undertake a job for me and as per usual a very high standard of work, great communication and very pleased with the outcome. The job took 6 days in total and the hallway walls and ceilings have been plastered plus a bit of coving. The room has now been transformed. Highly recomended.Verified reviewerJob location: SS010 Plastering lounge/bedroom

Karl was very good at communicating with me throughout the job and reasonable priced. The plastering job was completed on time with an overall finish look. Karl worked around plumbers which both worked well together. I would definitely recommend Karl to anyone who is thinking about getting work done.Verified reviewerJob location: SS8- TTerry B

My aim is to give my customers the best quality work at a very reasonable price. When booked in I will always turn up at the agreed time, and carry out the work to your requirements. I have been plastering for over 30 years now, and it's a trade passed down from my father. I can carry out any aspect of plastering from skimming old plaster, over boarding ceilings and walls, insulation, float and set work etc. Other things I cover are damp work, rendering, coving, dot and dab, plasterboard partitions, etc.
Over the years I have learnt to do other aspects of the building trade, including floor laying, skirting boards, etc. please don't be afraid to ask if there is something specific you need I'm sure it's something I can tackle. If you follow this link you'll see an article I did for the Evening Echo about plastering.
Please don't hesitate to call for a free no obligation quote, Cheers Karl
