Renderer & Plasterer

Recommended Posts

Hi - I've got some efflorescece on my my plasterwork and I believe that what I need is to someone to:


- Remove plaster and cement render back to brickwork

- Re-render with cement with waterproof additive

- Re-plaster with finishing coat


Area to covered is approx 3m x 1.5m.


Any recommendation for someone to carry out this type of work would be much appreciated.

Elliot (Greens Plastering) recently did some work for me, and is about to start another chunk. This included patching up large areas of bare brick (where previous plaster had crumbled away) with bonding plaster, before skimming two rooms. Definitely worth giving them a call.
I would also highly recommend John McCann (07905 044912). John has just finished replastering our whole house (lots of our plaster was blown and crumbling away from the brickwork) and has done a beautiful job (very smooth plasterwork) for a good price in the agreed timescales. John is also a lovely friendly guy who is very happy to take time to explain things fully and help you get round problems.

I'm looking for someone to carry out almost exactly the same work as OP, but maybe slightly larger area. Wondered if anyone had any luck with any of the above recommendations and roughly how much the work cost, (realise that price varies depending on area that needs work).


Many thanks

Another recommendation for Micky Lawless. He has just completed similar job to OP.


He did an excellent job and proved himself to be reliable, trustworthy and professional. He provided detailed costings in advance, which seemed reasonable. I was happy to have him in my home and to leave him there alone when necessary.

    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?  
    • I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
