Highlights

“I needed some plaster repair work done on my living room wall and George and friend did a great job!”

AnonymousCheckatrade5.0 rating

“George and his team were super efficient - he kindly booked us into a last minute cancellation and completed the work to an exceptionally high standard. He kept me updated throughout the job and communication was reassuring and reliable. They did the full job in 1 day and we’ve now got a much more aesthetically pleasing chimney breast. George was really transparent with pricing and we’re super pleased with the end result. We’d recommend GW to anyone needing plastering work.”

The guys were great, they got the job done quickly and covered the floors well. It was messy job but they did their best to keep the mess to a minimum. Would definitely have them back for any other plastering needs.
