    Gerald's plastering work in my home was exceptional. He was professional, detail-oriented, and passionate about his craft. The results exceeded my expectations, with flawlessly smooth surfaces. Gerald maintained a clean work environment and communicated effectively throughout the process. I highly recommend him for top-quality plastering services.

  • Living Room Plastered

    10Verified Review

    Gerald undertook to skim the ceiling and walls in my living room. The job also included installing new coving to replace the previous polystyrene and replace the skirting boards. He turned up every day when he said he would and started work immediately. On completion he ensured everything was clean and tidy (no mean feat considering the job) My wife and I are really pleased and happy with the outcome and would recommend Gerald.

  • Installing cornice + skirting

    9.75Verified Review

    Following damp proofing work by another contractor, I needed someone to fit new cornicing to replace the old that had been removed and resize + refit the old skirting - asap as usual! Gerald was very responsive and provided the quote and did the work in very short order - in fact a day earlier than he first said as he didn't want to let me down. First time I had used him and work was excellent quality. Recommended.

  • Overboarding/replastering of cracked lath and plaster ceiling

    10Verified Review

    After I contacted Gerald he made an appointment the same day to assess the work and provide a quotation. The work was undertaken within the required timeframe and completed to a high standard. Both Gerald and his colleague were courteous at all times and left after completing a thorough clean up. Highly recommended.

  • Superb and trustworthy

    10Verified Review

    Gerald and his colleague were extremely helpful, on-time and knowledgeable in helping us deal with multiple building and plastering projects/ideas over the last few months. Couldn’t ask for a more trustworthy person to help us and will definitely be asking for more help soon! Don’t hesitate to ask Gerald for any building query you might have 10/10
