I recently had some render work done on my house by Spraytex, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The quality of the work is outstanding, and it has truly transformed the look of my home. Debbie & Siobhan provided good customer service throughout the entire process, answering any questions I had. Additionally, the work area was left very tidy after each day, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Spraytex and Gaz (Installer) for any rendering needs!

They turned up without any materials and we had difficulty getting any. The fence has been put up in a bad way with short posts, and screws dangerously protruding through to next door. My old patio was not taken up as quoted, and new slabs were laid over the top. It is not level and slopes forward & sideways with a bump in the middle. Slabs are uneven, the built step has all broken away, as there is little support under it. And the grouting has gaps and different grouts used. Too many other probs to list.
