Damp proofing - Recommendation - Dave Reilly (Plastercare)


Recommended Posts

I'd like to recommend Dave Reilly. I picked up his contact on the EDF and he has completed two pieces of damp work for us in our kitchen and living room. He is reliable, friendly, efficient, reasonably priced and the work has been completed to a high standard.

Hi Dave

We have got some problems with damp and I am looking for someone to tell me what is causing them - then hopefully fix them for us! Is this something that you might be able to help with? We think it may be a problem with the window, but we are not sure. I am not sure if this falls within what you do?


Thanks

Dave has just been round and was brilliant. Helpful knowledgeable and upfront about what we needed to do and approximate costs. Advised me about some grants that may be available from the council and what we could do without spending too much to sort the job out.

A lovely man who I would heartily recommend

Just wanted to add to the praise for Dave Reilly on here. Whilst buying a new flat, we had high damp readings on the survey - Dave came round promptly and checked it out for us at no charge.


We needed 3 days worth of work doing across the flat and Dave quoted really reasonably for this. When it came to the work itself, more needed doing than we initially thought. Dave cracked on with this and completed everything to a really high standard at a very reasonable price.


He is a lovely guy to deal with and taught us loads along the way to stop problems in the future - if you have any damp issues, this is your man!

I would recommend Dave to anyone needing damp works done. Dave came round at short notice to give an assessment of the necessary works which came in at 3rd of the price of Kenwood!


Dave worked around our schedule and completed the works a day earlier than expected. Dave and his team then helped us out with other works including electrics, gas and even putting a new doorway in!


Dave and his team are all great fun - very reliable, helpful and efficient.


I'm glad we now have them as contacts for any future works.

Hi all,


I have damp in my flat. I'm looking for somebody to tell me whether it's internal or external and then to fix it. I notice that Dave is a plasterer. Did he do any external work to seal windows or re-point brickwork etc for any of you? I want to make sure I'm solving the problem and not merely, plastering over it!


Thanks so much,


JW

I would also like to add my recommendation for Dave Reilly for dealing with damp issues. He has done fab work for us in remedying small damp problems around the front bay window and cellar, and recently came out within 24 hours of my email to diagnose damp trouble in a house we have surveyed and are in the process of buying. He completely puts our minds at ease, and is refreshingly honest and no-nonsense. Thanks Dave!

Another recommendation for Dave Reilly, he came and resolved problems caused by a builder when installing a patio, installed the French drain that the builder was supposed to have done, and also sorted some other bits that needed doing. His cohort Bill is also an electrician so did some additional electrical work for us whilst on site.


Extremely knowledgeable, very reasonably priced, highly recommended

Another recommendation for Dave Reilly. Came to look at what we thought was a damp problem but is actually a dry but cold wall (1906 house). Very helpful and a nice bloke. Explained our options - which was reassuring - and that what that! Wouldn't take payment for his visit.

    • I really don’t want to be a complainer, but mail is definitely no longer arriving in SE22.
    • I would recommend Lucasz - he responded to our request very quickly, gave us an excellent quote and cleaned up after himself. Will definitely ask him to do any future jobs. 
    • General view is it is tokenistic from Iran, not looking to harm life but show that they are retaliating. Same thing happened after the earlier Israeli attack back in the distant part. There will be debate, even at the top of the Iranian authorities.  Israel even without the US hold the cards.  Although are in this position due to decades of US support. As per my post on the other thread much of the reason the world is in this position is botched US post second world war middle East policy.  Supporting both sides in the Iran/Iraq war being particularly striking Trump mark 1 emboldened the right wing in Israel, perhaps pushed Hammas to more extreme action, and led to the Iranians going rogue on nukes.  I think that the latter was to put them in a stronger position in opening up grade, a country not able to sell vast quantities of oil ,(and gas?) But how does the world move on from this mess? By all means give other views to my simplistic ones   
    • The NYT ( that right wing alarmist rag) has reported that Iran told Qatar so they could prepare. Iran and Q are on good terms so Q won’t retaliate, esp as Iran is only targeting US bases, which everyone knew to expect.     If anything, it draws Qatar into the dialogue and Q will privately be urging Iran to back down.
