Newman plastering. I am a one man band company, with just myself on the tools This means I have no overheads, so I am able to keep the cost down for my clients, but if needs be I can lay my hands on quality plasterers who share the same skill and passion for the job as me. range of services cover: * skimming plastering * Damproofing * External rendering * Dry lining * Internal rendering * Monocouche scratched renders(k rend) Why choose me? * friendly & reliable service * Many years of experience * Pay attention to health & safety * clean & tidy I have more than 10 years experience in all aspects of the plastering trade, and started learning the art of plastering with my uncle . By the time I was ready to leave school I was already becoming handy with the trowel and had some experience behind me, so I went on to do my apprenticeship and work with various other plasterers gaining more experience and learning my trade on housing sites and various big commercial jobs, as well as doing the odd domestic and private jobs. What makes me different from most companies? Well, I actually enjoy what I do and love plastering, so you can be sure to get a top job. So now you know a bit about me, feel free to use me for your plastering needs.

Reliability? Communication? Completion of work in a timely manner? Quality of work? Customer Service? Cleanliness and respect for property? The job is done (in a fashion), but I am not convinced it will last or that the guarantee (which I apparently have) is worth anything. Unfortunately I could not recommend. I should not feel like I need to have a strong male physically present to deal with a tradesman (IYKYK). I will attach photos of evidence if I can, so you can see for yourself.
I have been decorating for over 40 years and still enjoy it l like wall papering but the main thing is making your home a place your happy to live in
