Review left on 22 Apr 2019Rating: 3 out of 5Plastering 5 days(Updated on 5 Jun 2019)Work left incompleted, lots of mistakes trades men is good for plastering, not for tiling or plumbing.Answer from tradesperson:
I made you one bathroom in which you stood with your brother and you waited your eyes, the rest I ended up with your workers illegal immigrants from Brazil who screwed them up.And now you write the wrong tiles, and the plumbing I did not just do was connect the sink and toilet to the existing hydraylike. You are a fucker!!!!big

Review left on 8 Jan 2019Rating: 1 out of 5Skim two ceilings(Updated on 23 Jan 2019)I hired Slawek to skim a couple ceilings, but as the price was right and the job seemed decent, I had him do much of the refurbishment on my house: skimming the entire house, fitting bathroom and kitchen, installing doors, architraves, skirting, stair handrail, opening up chimney breast and installing wood burner, etc. Now I'm living there and decorating and seeing everything much more closely. Some things were done well but there are too many issues: 1. Plastering of all inside corners poor, very rough job, taking ages to smooth and fill 2. Fitted kitchen countertop he knew was 1cm too short, said it wasn't noticeable 3. Poor finishing in the bathroom; caulking messy, many gaps left; tile trim is an embarrassment 4. Blocked both my outside drains with plaster or cement bits 5. Most of the skirting ok, but later additions were added without bothering to fill in gaps 6. Stairs rail too short, loads of filler added very messily 7. Painted bathroom and kitchen; can see brush strokes, bristles in wall. Didn't bother smoothing the lumps in his own plaster work before painting, so I'll have to redo both. 8. Still hasn't fitted microwave; says "too busy", despite me having paid for it 9. Wood burner is unuseable: sealant is the worst job I've ever seen, cutout for flue is double flue size, soot falls through constantly Overall he has very low standards. And he doesn't bother contacting me when he comes across issues to see what I want to do, just does what he wants.Answer from tradesperson:
I was contracted for his initial job which was plastering of ceilings in the bathroom and kitchen.Once the job was completed and he had a look at my works i was offered an extra job.He kicked out his former builders to offer the job to me. During the entire project he had never any complaints or arguments against my labour work.He had plenty of time to have a look at the progress and quality of my works as there were several breaks in between due to my ongoing work on other building sites. He was dealing with materials and units orders that’s when the kitchen worktop arrived too short.This is why he’s trying to blame me for his wrong doing.In December he told me his moving in to fit the carpets and later paint his place.I though he’s gone mad not a person with common sense fits carpets before painting and decorating!His contracted plumber was fitting gas piping and central heating literally above the floor(I have never seen anything like it). Later He was calling me over the Christmas time asking to come around and place his microwave on a shelf. It was all fitted beforehand. His electrician was meant to reposition the wall plug in order for him to be able to use kitchen applainces. Doubt he did it for him hence why he wanted me to come all the way from Poland during Christmas. I was never paid for plate polished glass which was installed by me in stairs rail. I genuinely believe he’s an online hater who hasn’t got the guts to say it to your face when it matters!

Review left on 10 Dec 2017Rating: 1 out of 5Old kitchen out and installation of new kitchen
Started a kitchen but never completed it and left it uncompleted. Has some strange habits and is not the friendliest person to deal with. Would not recommend him from my experience. He also did not use all the parts to complete the units as said they were not needed. Had to hire another builder to complete the workReview from mraa47, South Norwood, London mraa47, South Norwood, London
Review left on 29 May 2017Rating: 5 out of 5Bathroom refurbishmentSlawek completed the refurbishment of a bathroom at my tenanted flat, fitting a new bathroom suite, tiling walls and floor, and painting the walls. He was considerate and ensured there was minimal disruption to the tenants use of the bathroom during the works. We had numerous additional plumbing materials that were required to fit the new bathroom suite. Slawek took the time and effort to source all of them as we were not aware of these beforehand. Furthermore, despite the delivery of the tiles being behind schedule, he still worked late into the evening on one of the days to make up for lost time. He is a hard-working tradesman that is dedicated to doing an excellent job for the customer.Review from ms_williams_24, Croydon ms_williams_24, Croydon
Review left on 13 Apr 2017Rating: 5 out of 5bathroom tilingSlawek has done an excellent job on my dated bathroom which he completely refurbished, refitting an entire suite including pipework and tiled floor to ceiling. He kept his word on his quote and provided me with all the receipts for additional sundries required. He is a highly skilled, honest and trustworthy tradesman who I will no doubt use again in the near future for other work. He has exceeded my expectations and I am extremely happy! I would recommend him to anyone.Review from silvia_g, South Croydon silvia_g, South Croydon

Review left on 3 Mar 2016Rating: 5 out of 5New shower Room and part kitchen refurbishment
Slawek did a downstairs shower room for us by knocking wall through cloakroom, installing lintel to support opening, installing a new shower & shower room from scratch along with cloakroom renovation involving tiling, plastering, plumbing and decorating. He is very hard working, sincere, decent and a very skilled tradesman. We are very pleased with his work and are intending to get even bigger home renovation work done by him. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and others.Review from Customer of masterslav Customer of masterslav
