Damp Proofer Dave Reilly of Plastercare

Recommended Posts

I just wanted to recommend Dave Reilly, of Plastercare, who did an excellent job on the damp problems we had in our Victorian terrace. He explained everything very well, made minimal mess and was very happy to work round the other workmen and their tools/benches that were littering the house. He is friendly and courteous and did the work for a good price.


His number is 07932 505589.

I would like to add another recommendation for Dave Reilly, who has repaired the cornice on our Victorian house - which had been in a very bad state. At the same time, Dave also identified the cause and repaired some isolated patches of damp (including around a lower floor bay window). Dave gave a clear and fair quote with breakdown of all costs, and was able to carry out the work to schedule, using appropriate tools and materials. All work was completed to a high standard.


We also found Dave to be reliable and polite, and are happy to recommend to those looking to resolve similar issues with damp and/or otherwise looking for a skilled plasterer.

Another recommendation for Dave Reilly. We've had an offer accepted on a house and were concerned about some damp throughout the property. I got in touch in the evening and he had a look the next day. He offered practical and reasonable solution to the problems and was very reassuring.


He didn't want to simply inject the whole house like every other damp 'expert' I've dealt with in the past. We'd have no hesitation in using Dave again.

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
