    First class workmanship.

    Chris removed the old wood cladding to the front of our house last September. This was replaced with insulation board and rendered to a high standard. Chris was that good that we had him back this month to remove wall tiles on the back of the house and again replace the with insulation board and render to match the front of the house. Chris is excellent at his job along with being clean and tidy with constant updates of the progress and challenges that happen during the work. Would highly recommend.

    Renewal of rendering to front and rear of property

    Chris has done a great job on the front and back of the house. Communication was great from start to finish. Work was completed in a timely and professional manner and he cleaned up well after he finished. Couldn't ask for more. Would recommend.

    Porch tile removal and rendering.

    We asked Chris if he was able to remove the tiles from our external porch walls, and render them to match the rest of the house - and we’re thrilled with the result! Chris was really attentive, and talked me through all of the details, what would work, what wouldn’t, colour matching, differences in rendering, etc., he made the process really easy and the work was quick, carried out over two days! Couldn’t have asked for an easier process, and a better result! Thank you so much!

Hi, I Am Chris Long. I've been plastering since 1988 learnt how to plaster the old way when a plasterer being included Plaster boarding, & dot & dabbing plasterboard setting cornice, float & skim (sand & cement, bonding hardwall or browning) also it included sand & cement render & pebbledash. Mainly it involved getting over any problems & not being part of them, i.e. cleaning up after myself.

plastering hasn't changed much but when it did so do I as to keep up with the modern ways.

Experience gives me the confidence to see solutions & to be able to talk properly to the customer without being aggressive or confrontational.
