Highlights
"Billy worked really hard and did a great job on our ceilings and walls. Highly recommended"
"He worked incredibly hard to plaster our kitchen, extension, dining area, lounge and hallway and fit us in around other jobs before our kitchen install. Very clean, tidy and proffessional - excellent communication throughout. Cannot rate Billy highly enough!"
"Billy Thwaite did a great job re-plastering our kitchen walls and ceiling in preparation for a new kitchen installation. To accommodate our schedule, he managed to do the whole job in one day, enabling our installer to begin fitting the kitchen units the next morning. We found Billy to be personable, courteous and hard-working and would definitely recommend his services to others. We have already invited him to quote for other work to the outside of our house."

Excellent! Billy came round the day after we contacted him to look at the job and give a quote. He provided a price straight away which was fair and competitive. He completed the work to a high standard in one day. He was tidy, respectful, polite and friendly though-out. Would recommend.

Billy is very friendly and helpful. He did an amazing job in our dining room. The walls and ceiling are unbelievably smooth. An absolutely professional job. Despite some setbacks with our plumbing and electrics uncovered when Billy removed our old ceiling he was very understanding and flexible when we had to put the work on hold to fix it before the new ceiling could go back up. Would highly recommend.

We had a couple of bedroom ceilings boarded and plastered by Billy and he did a great job. His work is very ordered, tidy and not rushed. Our ceilings look great and he did a good clean up after so we didn't need to worry about any mess. Happy to use his services in the future.
