Really professional finish on all the plastered areas and great communication before and after making sure I was happy with the result. I would totally recommend Jim and his team to anyone looking for a good plasterer.

Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for B&G Spreads Ahead, including the highlights above. The 27 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
They were both great did a great job and actually came round to quote and see the problem rather than offer estimate based on pictures. The pictures would not have shown the whole problem, an experienced eye spotted it, and when they showed the bent bars stuck in the wall and not enough of them. We could see why the wall was cracking. Great job, and even sealed up the outside of window ledge which wasn't in the price. Would recommend highly, and, they didn't scare the cat, which is always a bonus! Only thing I worried about was the cat might leave with them!
Jim came round to look at the job properly then gave me a quote within ab hour and came and carried out the work two days later. work carried out to a great standard and cleaned up afterwards

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
