10 Patching areas in different parts of the house
Posted 16 October
Here’s a polished review you could use for Howard — warm, professional, and full of praise: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Work & Seamless Experience Howard was brilliant from start to finish. He communicated clearly, delivered his quote on time, and kept me updated. His workmanship was outstanding — every detail considered for a flawless result. He offers excellent value and left the space spotless. If it weren’t for the exceptional finish, you wouldn’t know he’d been there. Howard’s now my go-to plasterer for all future work.Verified reviewerJob location: S75Response from R Taylor Plastering & Damp Proofing

10 Can't recommend enough.
Posted 11 August
Can't recommend enough - Howard has been helpful and professional throughout, gave a competitive price, kept me informed, brought all the sheets and covers to protect work areas and walkways in my house even though he knew it was a mess. Night and day to plasterers I've come across before, he completely cleaned the areas where he'd been working and, not least, did a great job with the plastering which looks fab. Looking forward to having him back when we are ready for more work.Verified reviewerJob location: S3Response from R Taylor Plastering & Damp Proofing

10 Bedroom plastering - 2 walls needing plasterboard and skimming, 2 needing skimming only
Posted 03 July
Very friendly and transparent service, and reasonably priced. We needed a bedroom re-plastering and the chaps completed the work in 2 visits. They were clean and cleaned up after themselves and would be happy to use their services again in the future.Verified reviewerJob location: S6Response from R Taylor Plastering & Damp Proofing
