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.

Plastering- 19 Nov 2017
Ilyia came to give u a quote within days, his price was excellent and he started the job that weekend. He was professional, courteous and completed the job that day with minimum disruption to our family. The plastering is excellent and the room looks great. He cleared up after the work and checked we were happy with work. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone and will certainly keep his details for any other jobs e may have in the future. A professional and trustworthy workman.

Electrical- 24 Nov 2017
100% Recommended. I asked Mark to do a very difficult install, one which several others had declined or else wanted a small fortune (and two guys) to even attempt. Mark completed the job whilst making it look simple, for a very good price. He proved very easy and pleasant to work with, honest, reliable and efficient he also came upo with several very good design ideas and saved money on fittings where it made sense to do so. Ill be using him for all electrical work going forward. He also does decorating / refurbishment work / kitchens and bathrooms Thanks very much and good luck with your business.

Plastering- 20 Apr 2017
Darren, was absolutely brilliant, he phoned up as soon as he saw the job advertised and came round very quickly to view and quote for the job. He even managed to start the job the same day and finish it the following day to a superb standard. Darren really helped us out of a pickle as our original builder had gone awol and left us with a half finished job, unable to continue with any other work. So five starts to Darren, we would definitely use him again.

I wholeheartedly recommend Greg, you should hire him. He and his helpful team decorated my entire flat beautifully, to an excellent standard, and in record time. Greg is professional, personable, and thorough, and I fully trusted leaving him and his team in my home. Greg met with me very soon after contact was made, provided a reasonable and detailed quote, and gave me updates throughout the job. Excellent all round and a pleasure to work with. Thanks Greg (& the GPL team).

David recently installed a new bathroom for me. He completely removed the old bathroom, stripped down the walls and ceiling and re-plastered them. He tiled the walls and floor and fitted the new bathroom to my satisfaction. He removed all the old pipes and fittings and did not try to cut corners, like other trades persons that I have used in the past. He finished the job by painting the walls and ceiling with suitable paint. David was very helpful with his advice and always courteous. He worked fixed hours and ensured that the job was done on time. As there is only one bathroom in the flat, he ensured that I was left with appropriate toilet facilities at the end of each day's work. He even helped removed all of the rubbish generated from the work and ensured that the whole area was clean after completing the work. I would thoroughly recommend David as a reliable and affordable tradesman and would be happy to answer any specific queries about his work.

Plastering- 23 Mar 2018
Couldn't recommend any higher. John was excellent at communication leading up to job, always keeping me informed. As I said to him, it was a breath of fresh air to deal with a tradesman like himself. John took every care to make sure everything was protected before removing the ancient plaster from the tall wall on our precarious 1st landing. Going out of his way to hire and collect a mini tower for the job. Excellent finish on the wall he boarded and skimmed, ready for us to now wallpaper. He also took the time to talk through any questions I had throughout obligingly. Genuine too bloke and will be utilising his services again in the very near future.

Carpentry- 10 Sep 2016
I'm just discovered that through some oversight I've neglected to leave feedback on this job - replacing an old garden pergola, quite a large one. Lucas and his colleagues did excellent work and we were very happy with everything. We would certainly hire him/them again - if he's not too booked up, that isc! Highly recommended. Christopher Sykes
