“Absolutely first class! Friendly, professional and an all-round top person to deal with. Was in constant touch throughout and explained everything clearly before starting, which gave us real confidence. The plastering work is flawless — smooth finish with great attention to detail. Even went the extra mile and patched some fallen plaster at no extra charge. Left everything clean and tidy too. Couldn’t be happier. 100% recommend D Mitchell Plastering! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

Highlights
“We had been let down by a previous plasterer so thought we would try checkatrade. Mitch came to view when he said he would and quoted a very reasonable price. He came back 6 days later to plaster the ceiling and was very clean and tidy. We also had an awkward area on the wall to plaster too and some deep holes but nothing was too much trouble. The ceiling is drying out nicely and is beautifully smooth. A great job and a kind friendly man to deal with.”
Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for D Mitchell Plastering, including the highlights above. The 17 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
I found Mitch to be generally reliable in turning up on time to quote however the quote increased by 50%. Also disappointed being chased for payment when work was not completed but being told it was. Poor quality and choices like plastering in the fire alarm, damaging carpets and taking no care when fixing issues after being assured he would read my home like his own and wouldn't be left with issues. The quality of his work is poor in my experience in terms of neatness, perhaps my expectations were too high or unrealistic so I'll let the images speak for themselves.

Approved plumbers on the free WaterSafe register are vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. Check they're listed, or find a WaterSafe-approved plumber near you.
Check the WaterSafe registerAgree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top, in writing, before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced. Get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade, not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
