Having posted the job, Steve was the first to come back to me offering a quote merely from the description of the job and a couple of photos sent to him. So within a matter of hours I had posted the job, received a quote, and had the job booked for less than a week away at my convenience - his keenness shone through immediately. Unfortunately on the day Steve's van broke down, but he kept me informed on what was happening and assured me that he would be there within the next hour, which he was (in another car) whereas others may simply have cancelled the job. Steve got to work immediately and completed the job to a very high standard, as well as cleaning up after himself. And as well as all of that Steve was very friendly, and stuck to the original quote even throwing in a bit of skimming for some other cracks as well - it was refreshing to feel that I was not being led on. Anyway, I would not hesitate to get hold of Steve again for any job big or small, and if you are looking for a keen, dedicated, friendly plasterer who delivers a high standard of work then I feel this guy is your man.
