    Excellent professional work

    Posted 19 January

    Martin did an excellent job reboarding and skimming a bedroom ceiling. We have employed Martin on a number of occasions over several years and we have always been very satisfied with his work. We will be employing him again for further work later in the year.

    Total professional

    Martin communicated brilliantly, he was on time and did exactly what he said he'd do, when he said he'd do it. Not only that, I couldn't believe how tidy and clean he is as a plasterer. Almost cleaner than when he arrived. Would definitely recommend and would definitely book again. The work is great.

    great job done - again

    Posted 24 November 2025

    Martin has done excellent work for us previously so we were happy to get him to skim over art and poor previous plaster in Living room and on an awkward stairway and landing. Lovely, professional job done with a great finish. Martin works very tidily and leaves area very clean. Fair prices for such a good job. Can thoroughly recommend

    I would highly recommend Martin's work. He has just completed plastering my hall stairs and landing and I am very pleased with the results and Martin's efficiency and helpfulness.

    Quality Work from a True Professional

    Posted 04 August 2025

    We've spent the past year renovating a large house with a lot of previously very bodged work done, so have dealt with a lot of contractors in this time. Martin has done the most work for us over a period of many months, and has been without doubt the most reliable, conscientious, and hard-working of them all. He is polite, respectful, and always leaves the area clean afterwards. Most importantly, the standard of his work has been impeccable, without exception.
