Can anyone recommend a specific type of builder? see below

We are looking for an excellent trustworthy builder who can help our unique situation. We need to replaster our cellar and close it off with a hatch at the top of the stairs and basically seal every millimetre of adjoining wall to the neighbouring property to stop the really potent cigarette smoke coming through from next door and up through the floorboards into our house. We have someone ready to re-floor the whole of the downstairs once this is done. The builders we used to renovate the house previously who we really trust can't fit us in until next year now but we need this doing now as we are a young family.


Has anyone else had this done?!


Any recommendations greatly welcome


Thank you

I had this problem in a previous house. The smoke came through the floorboards in under stairs cupboard through the door into the kitchen. No cellar. The kitchen was tiled, and so was downstairs hallway so it only came up through cupboard floorboards. I wish you luck but cannot recommend anyone, but there does seem to be quite a few recommended plasters on here. Have a search.


Edited to say I saw Andrew@Top Notch Plasterers recommended by a few people a few days ago.

    • A huge shout-out to Andy! He’s helped us several times now and is an absolute gem. He doesn't just do the easy jobs; he finds solutions to the difficult, non-obvious problems that others might miss. He is very hard working, incredibly friendly, great with pets, and always leaves the place better than he found it. 10/10! 
    • Here to add my voice to those praising Temi. She just painted my dilapidated home office in ED and did a fantastic job in just two days in a much lighter colour, including woodwork, damp blocker and filling holes. She's efficient, on time and I barely heard a peep out of her; she just got on with the job. I recommend her wholeheartedly. 
    • The residents & families of the estate are getting parking fines,  out of the blue , the residents parking system waa changed from Southern to Sippi with cameras put up in the car park and people issued with fines entering the estate for more then 10 minutes , families can no longer pick up or drop off family due to a new 10 minute wait fine. Residents are appealing with Sippi and Southern as there was no letters to consult of a parking change,  new waiting times or fines, delivery drivers are getting fines everyday,  if you get a fine,  appeal it, there is no signage up to say about parking fines or waiting time
    • Threads that devolve like this should be moved to the Lounge, so the 'comedy' can continue in an appropriate vacuum.
