    Plastering review November 2025

    Posted 19 January

    At short notice I asked James of this business to do some plastering of a ceiling and wall as my flat was going to be valued. Before the wall had big ridges in from some insulation in a corner of the room. I’m so grateful that he could do it as agreed to a great standard and I wouldn’t hesitate to ask for this service again next time something comes up. The room feels so much better now.

    James was very good, discussed the job, we agreed what needed doing, he sent over a quote I accepted. Very good communication all the way through. He turned up on time, did an excellent job I’m very pleased and would thoroughly recommend him

    James has plastered two rooms in our house now, both times he was fantastic, great communication, on time, and prices were fair. He’s also very friendly and was happy to advise on other bits and pieces/future work etc. Would definitely get him back for any future plastering work.
