Kevin did plastering work on the ceiling associated with recently installed Velux windows.

Kevin was great to work with! He is courteous, friendly and professional - and willing to be flexible and go the extra mile; and the quote was competitive too.

Kevin was busy; or, I caught him at a busy time, and so took a bit of time to get to my work - although he dropped by, took a look at the job and gave a quote as soon as I contacted him.

I would recommend Kevin and use him again too! Thank you!

I had a leak over Christmas and part of my ceiling needed to be re plastered. I live on the top floor of a tenement flat. Kevin came over to provide a fair quote- and then turned up on time for the job. Was very efficient, and did a fantastic job. Left the flat really tidy too. Would recommend!

Bedroom wall was moving and plaster was crumbling and had become detached from ceiling.

Kevin removed the old plaster from the wall, fitted 3 metal brackets on either side and rebuilt the wall in a day and a half.

Very clean, tidy and efficient, great job

We decided to change our conservatory into a play room, and as our walls had seen better days we contacted Kevin to skim them. Kevin was able to offer us a quick start date and was very reasonably priced. The work was completed on time, to a high standard and any mess cleared away. Thanks again Kevin, we look forward to using you again.

Kevin came to our need at short notice, he turned up on time and was obliging to work around what was cluttered rooms in the property. He also protected areas he was working with dust sheets and protective polythene. Workmanship was excellent and would not hesitate to use again in the future.

Review Comments
The kitchen tiles between the worktops and the wall cupboards were removed and left the walls full of holes and in very poor condition. The problem was delaying the rest of my new kitchen installation.
Kevin came at short notice to assess the job and was able to plaster the walls a few days later.
He arrived at 8am fully equiped and finished at the estimated time. My kitchen walls have been restored and it was a job well done at a reasonable price.
Kevin was polite, friendly and easy to talk to. Should I need a plasterer again, I would definately call him and would recommend him to others.

We had a plasterer booked for our kitchen renovation who cancelled on us.

Called a few different plasterers and K P was excellent in coming out to see and then squeezing us in at the end of another job.

Great communication, excellent service, and a great job.

Would highly recommend.

Kevin was replastering 2 sections of the walls in our spare room after previous damage. He gave a very reasonable quote and when we had arranged a date he arrived bang on time. He was polite in all his interactions with us and got the job done neatly and efficiently, cleaning up any mess after himself with care. We were really pleased with the finished work and would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.

Kevin has made an excellent job of plastering our hallway and bathroom. He was very reliable, friendly, trustworthy and always arrived on time and organised our radiators to be taken off the wall by the plumber. We would definitely recommend him and we are really pleased with the work.

Kevin re-plastered our entire living room including the ceiling. He was really helpful when quoting and answering questions prior to us booking him in, even to the extent of coordinating a plumber to remove radiators and replace them afterwards. I am really happy with the work and all communication was clear and very helpful. Many thanks!

Kevin skimmed walls in two of our rooms for a very reasonable price. He arranged for the radiators to be removed and took care of everything. The job is great and he even came back promptly to deal with a handful of snags. The work was done to a high standard in just two days! I would recommend and definitely use again.

I changed the original brief a couple of times and Kevin was not phased by this and made sure I was happy at each stage. Communicative, reasonable and trustworthy I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone and will definitely use him again if the need arises.

Kevin is friendly, reliable and trustworthy. What I most appreciate is that he communicates well, he phones with updates and information so I always know where I stand. He has done a great job on covering horrible artex ceilings in our flat as well as creatively tackling a very tricky bathroom under stairs. His prices are very reasonable too.

Over the past few years Kevin has done various jobs for me. He has plastered my whole house and carried out the building work for patio doors and a new bike shed. He is professional, helpful and very competitive. Kevin always comes in on budget and is about to start another job for me.
