Anyone in Manchester that you can recommend?

?

Thanks. He’s already come back for the ceiling, filled the holes and trowel marks. Bubbles still there. I know how to do the rest from advice on this forum.

Google him, I dont want to ruin the surprise: include cone. Rooms are about 20m square with coving in both rooms. Wall is 2.8m high and has a door. He also did the inside of the door, the frame. What would be a reasonable charge?

move had a look at my messages. he came at around 1 to do the prep work. Not sure what time he finished, but would be just a few hours at most as they weren’t there when I got home. did a full day (not sure how many). they were finished by the morning of the third day. I don’t know how many...

Ok I will get all the pictures on my phone and will give a full update. As I said before - MANC ONE. Location and number. What would be offensive if it was man cone unless your name is Trevor Smith ;)

Owner and his two sons. One afternoon they (two) came to fill in the ceiling holes/prep walls. Next day and a half they did the ceilings. I think they finished one and then started the other. I don’t know who did the wall as I was working. Parents were present for the ceiling,

I knew sites like TrustATrader were bad so I used other sites. I thought Which? was a good site? Also he has 20 Google reviews which aren’t fake (I’ve checked the posting history), coupled with 20 on Which?, plus Yelp. I’m not a local so I can’t ask for recommendations, I don’t think I’ve been...

It wasn’t a day, it was nearly four days and a team of three ( weren’t there on all days/all the time).

Name of Mancone? Manc-one? I’m from Manchester and the number one? What else can it mean?

Again I’m not really sure of why I’ve received so much animosity. I’m asking so I learn from the mistake. No one is forcing someone to give advice, it can only help consumers like myself. Knowledge is power.

Wasn’t this where new members write an intro thread to get approved to start threads? Stops spammers.

Again I didn’t prep, I removed as much plaster as I could. Cheap? People can charge whatever they want and on the other thread I was told I paid too much.

I didn’t do the prep. I painted the wall when I came across the issue of the plaster being crap. So I removed as much as I could, kept on painting, repeat. I didn’t do any prep, that’s not prep.

Why? I’m hire happy to share it. I just don’t understand the animosity on this forum. I’m asking a genuine question to help me and the majority of the posts have been unwelcome. Just why.

I’m off. Bye guys x

Yes I wanted to go to a specific forum for Plasteror’s. Must say there is defo a different vibe here.

He’s already been back to do the ceiling £750 for two ceilings and both sides of the wall

That’s the wall where it developed a hollow

The ceilings? Nope. Doesn’t explain the issues with the wall.

No I didn’t do any prep to save money. I didn’t remove the paper from the wall, there was no paper on the wall. The plaster prepared the wall.

NW £250 for both sides of the wall

W What caused it? Guy cane highly recommended.

In started another thread as I thought this was a thread to stop spammers. Picture above is the plastering after three weeks. I’ve popped two holes, the area has small bubbles and also doesn’t feel smooth. Looked sooooo good when it was first done, but now I feel like it’s shrunk and this has...

I Did I do something wrong :/

Has my ceiling skimmed after I removed the wallpaper. looked good until I painted it and I saw small spots every where. Also the plaster got small holes in two area (well like a blister I popped). Got the same guy to do two internal walls. Same thing happened apart from the wall feels bumpy...

Here for advice
