They did a good job.
I had this company plaster my livingroom and create a drop ceiling with LED lighting. They were excellent with communicating what the different stages were, reasonably priced and tidy. They done a fantastic job. I would definitely use this company again and would highly recommend them.
Rob responded immediately to my query regarding coving in a new build house. A quote was sorted out within a week and the job was done in a clean & efficient manner. Would recommend Rob & his team.
Photo shows just one of the 10 ceilings that the lads removed the Artex from and plastered smooth as glass. No need to supervise them they arrived on time and just got on with it 4 days in total for all 10 ceilings. They tidied up and cleaned up. Rob was very helpful and knowedgeable. Throughly recommend them! All nice lads!
Such a fast reply, able to fit me in next day, great price and good quality work. Thank you

Rob provided a very efficient service, cleaned and tidied up when finished. Excellent job, well done.
Rob and Phil were a great team. They were professional and worked to a high standard. The work was completed to a high standard and they had cleaned up before we realised. What a great job. Thank you

Plastered three bedroom ceilings that were previously artexed. Honest pricing, excellent communication and great job. Very pleased.
First class service all round being an ex-builder myself I know what a good job they have done, I would recommend them. They are young lads but don't let that put you off they are very good at what they do.
R&P Plastering Services were sent to me by Homestyle Ltd. They plastered my ceiling after a door and stairs were put in so I could get to my loft. It looks wonderful.
Two great lads who did a great job very pleased with work I will definitely use them again for my hallway and bedroom . I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this company.
Fantastic great job!
They done an amazing job they were respectful to my property and also left my home clean when they finished. Definitely would recommend this company to anyone needing work done.

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself
Damp and timber work isn't licensed in the UK, and "rising damp" is often over-diagnosed - so a real qualification matters. Property Care Association members hold recognised damp-surveying qualifications (CSRT/CSSW), follow a code of ethics and must have traded at least three years. Check they're a PCA member before you accept a damp-treatment quote.
Check the PCA registerGet an INDEPENDENT damp survey, not a free one from the firm that wants to sell you the treatment. A free survey has every incentive to diagnose expensive 'rising damp', when the problem is often condensation, a leak, or high ground level that needs no chemical injection.
Insist they identify and fix the underlying CAUSE (a leak, blocked airbricks, poor ventilation, failed pointing) before agreeing to an injected damp-proof course, and ask them to explain why simpler fixes won't work.
Get the diagnosis and an itemised quote in writing, and be wary of pressure to sign on the spot for a long 'guarantee' that is only worth anything while that firm is still trading.
