Ian and his son were very friendly and did a fantastic job of removing the stud wall underneath our staircase. They left the area looking very neat and tidy. Would highly recommend. Many thanks for doing a great job!

Detailed reviews
We would highly recommend Ian and Billy (J&I Plastering), and actually we would not use anyone else. Been using then for 35+ years for all our projects. Very professional, clean and tidy, consistently outstanding high quality work, and trustworthy, no problem with handing them a key to our home to get on while we are away or at work. Lovely family business, father and son, couldn’t fault them.
Excellent service, fair price, really pleased with the end result, would definitely recommend.
