What customers say
Rated 4.8 on Google
"He was able to remove the surrounding sagging plaster, put up plasterboard and a bonding coat on Thursday morning, let it dry overnight and then finished with a perfect skim on Friday. Consistently arrived on time, explained each stage of the work, cleaned up after himself, and overall did a beautiful job for a very fair price."

"Raf is clearly very passionate about the work he does explained what he was doing and why he was doing it all the way through… Raf even came back to put a mist coat on ready for painting (something that I wasn't originally expecting) it's clear that Raf is not going to be finished until the job has been completed perfectly and he's happy with the final result himself which is quite rare my previous experiences have always been chuck it up a[nd go]."

"Awful driving, pulled out of Norton onto the A259 directly infront of oncoming vehicles travelling at 50mph, nearly causing a multi car accident. Very unprofessional, would not recommend."

Frequently asked questions
How long does fresh plaster take to dry before painting?
Usually three to seven days depending on thickness, ventilation and weather. We'll advise on the specific job before we leave.
Can you remove an Artex ceiling and replaster it?
Yes. We overboard or skim over sound Artex and replaster to a smooth finish, depending on the condition of the existing ceiling.
Do you repair water-damaged ceilings and walls?
Yes, provided the leak above has been fixed. We cut out the damaged section, reboard or bond as needed, then skim to match.
Will you apply a mist coat before handing the work over?
We can apply a mist coat once the plaster is dry so the walls are ready for your top coats. Just ask when booking.
Which areas around Eastbourne do you cover?
Eastbourne and the nearby East Sussex towns and villages. Ring with your postcode and we'll confirm.
Do you handle small repairs as well as full rooms?
Yes. Cracks, patches and small ceiling repairs are part of regular work, alongside full room re-skims.
