Fantastic Plasterer

Recommended Posts

As per my previous post my house in SE23 is undergoing full renovation and I promised to share details of any positive experiences with tradesmen. So, I just wanted to share details of a great plasterer we found who not only does a great finish but was so helpful when we ran into issues of damp, rotten ceiling joists, wallpaper straight on plasterboard (impossible to remove) etc etc. He became like our consultant without the fee. His quote was by far the most competitive too. So much so that a very popular plasterer on this forum actually quoted double for the same job!


I actually got AJ - Barnes plastering from Ratedpeople.com, not this forum, so here are his details. By all means tell him Niki from Forest Hill recommended him. BTW he has got a 5 star rating on Ratedpeople.com. We are going to have him back to do our kitchen next.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
