    Unprofessional, Damaging Work and Intimidating Conduct, Do Not Hire

    Posted 1 day ago

    Conduct and work was unprofessional. He caused significant damage to our property. Despite prior notice of damp in the bay window, he arrived unprepared, used unsuitable tools, and delivered poor workmanship, leaving damaged skirting, uneven plaster, exposed scrim tape, and structural defects requiring full remedial work. Communication was intimidating and unprofessional, with pressure for payment before completion and refusal to respond in writing. Materials paid for were misused, costs were unjustified, and independent plasterers confirmed the work was defective. Proceed with caution.

    Great company highly recommend

    Posted 08 January

    Outside of the usual remit of plastering, I contacted Mike to help with a broken bathroom light, he attending at the time he said, completed the job quickly with no hassle and no mess left behind. He will also be returning to carry out some plastering for me soon, I have used Penshurst Plastering for many years. Whilst plastering is the trade they are generally good at other things needed around the house. No more showering in the dark! Thanks Penshurst Plastering
