How often should I get my plastering done?

Plastering is typically done during renovations or repairs, but areas that get damaged or cracked might need touch-ups every few years to keep your walls looking their best.

Can plasterers fix cracks in walls?

Absolutely. Experienced plasterers can repair everything from tiny hairline cracks to larger, more serious damage, leaving your walls smooth and ready for decorating.

How long does plastering take?

The time depends on the size and complexity of the job, but a skilled plasterer can usually complete a typical room in a few days, including drying time.

How can I tell if my plaster needs repairing?

If you notice cracks, bubbling, damp patches, or crumbling plaster, it’s a good sign you should get a professional plasterer to assess and fix the problem.

What types of plaster do plasterers work with?

Professional plasterers are trained in a variety of plaster types, like traditional lime plaster, gypsum plaster, and modern finishing plasters, and will recommend the best option for your home and project.

We booked Ashley Brumwell (Ash) through a friend to come and take down and replace a water damaged kitchen ceiling. He arrived prompt on the arranged day and set about laying down plastic sheeting and dust covers on the floor and kitchen units. He taped the unit doors and also the main door leading to the rest of the house. He removed the damaged ceiling with little effort and then had to wait for the electricians to do an electrical first fit, unfortunately they were held up on an emergency task and this knocked Ash's plans. After the electricians left he replaced the plaster boards with the aid of an associate: the real plastering skill then began. He worked hard throughout the afternoon stopping for the odd cup of tea. A considerate worker who kept us informed of his progress. He went about the task with quiet confidence, nothing was to much trouble, he demonstrated a high degree of professionalism through the job, his plastering skill and ability were beyond reproach. On completion, he removed all rubbish, removed the protective coverings and swept up leaving little mess (we were expecting a total mess). Ash was a consumate professional who took great pride in his work, we were totally happy with the out come. The job met all our expectations, he supplied all materials and proved to do a first class job for what we considered a reasonable fee. We have no hesitation in highly recommending him to any prospective employer and will no doubt use him again in the future.

Central Heating- 5 Oct 2015
Craig and Mike are very friendly and were very kind throughout the work. My job was supposed to take 1 week but it took 1 month as several things didn't go well. The tiler they had booked could not make it, and hence I had a different tiler which ended up in charging me a completely different amount. The pipes in the kitchen tap got inverted, so the cold water is on the right now. The toilette lever was installed the other way around - so it's open when down and closed when up. The basin pop up waste lever was incorrectly mounted -and I fixed it The silicon by the shower screen is not linear but in some places is thin and some other there's way too much I was told the dishwasher did not have the right size, when all it was, it was the hose holder ring behind that was taking 2 cm I asked them 5 times check the content of a shower screen box to make sure everything was there, so that if something was missing i could order in advance, but it was only checked when needed, and something was missing so ended in up in wasting 1 more week. They replaced the thermostat, but left a hole behind it, so I had to fill it up and paint myself. It took them then 2 months to activate my boiler warranty. Generally I wasn't impressed with their planning and their plumbing skills, it all looked messy and confusing to me whilst I was hoping for more attention to details. Also the coordination with the tiler was messy. Perhaps they're more specialized with the boiler installation.

Roofing (Pitched)- 7 Aug 2019
Very easy to deal with, and a good price for the job. They sent a chap out to measure up, and he recommended a slightly smaller frame than we were originally thinking. We trusted his judgement and it looks great. Nice lads sent over to fit it, they were done in a few hours, and did a very good job. Overall, very pleased, and have asked them to quote for another job already.

Plastering- 5 Dec 2018
Gareth and Andy did a great job on putting up the coving. It wasn’t straightforward as the house walls aren’t straight and we have high ceilings but Gareth suggested several options to make the best of a tricky job. The finished job looks amazing and really finishes off my hallway. They were polite, friendly kept me informed and left the house immaculate when they had completed the work. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again or recommend to others Thanks Gareth
