Paid him £1700 and that's only part of it. He's not getting the rest! Some of it is for putting down floors in 2 rooms, but the majority of it is for the plastering... I feel like an idiot.

He's based in Crewe. Won't mention any names yet, not until situation sorted out. But, from what I hear after doing a bit of reasearch, I'm not the only one in this situation :muyenojado:

I've contacted him about it all and he hasn't responded. Tried calling and he's not picking up.

Just outside of Manchester. Decided to leave the bit that's terrible till next year. Tried sanding and filling and it's all just coming off in chunks so leaving it alone for a professional. Hopefully a real one next time!

@MakeItSmooth Thanks for the links

Just over £1700 for plastering work, and put 2 plasterboards in. Replaced coving in a couple of places and put new skirting board up in 2 rooms (I purchased the skirting). One room about 3.5x3.5m One room 3x3m One wall 6.5m long An indoor porch where a door was removed.

England. Puts a bad rep for everyone else on the site I found him on. Wouldn't use it again!

Arrgghh, won't be paying any more.... Is there any way to report his work so someone else doesn't go through this? I've since heard he has done some shoddy structural work as well and being chased for that too.

How much of this can be fixed by filler and covered with paint? :tonto:

I have had someone in to plaster/skim the walls in a few rooms. I have never done this before so I have no idea what I'm looking for in the work, however I am pretty disappointed at what I feel is a terrible finish. None of the walls are ready to paint on. Is this normal? Holes, bubbles, cracks...
