A fab job - making good a huge hole in my lounge wall before plastering it. What an amazing job - the finish of my wall is like glass. Friendly, reliable and exceptionally talented at what he does. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Mr Dawson is a professional tradesman who ensures all aspects of his work meet the highest standard. He is easy to get on with, hard working, punctual and great value for money. I will request to use his services again for future plastering work, so he is a definate reccommendation.

We are selfbuilders and are building our own house in wonderful Berkshire. We have contracted all different types of tradsmen during the build but Dave and his team were the BEST! We oridinaly only wanted ceilings plastered but after seeing Dave's high quality craftsmanship we have changed our mind and got the whole house plastered by Dave. I highly recomend Dave to anybody who is looking for high quality finish plastering job, team with great attitude, hardworking, super efficient tradsmen for very reasonable price. I cant praise Dave enough, he is truly the best!!!! Thank you so much for all your hard work and great help.

Everything about this job went brilliantly, thanks to Dave. 3 x dry stone walls to be plastered, with a circular window and fireplace to work around. His quote was competitive, timescale spot on and he was tidy and professional throughout. I wouldn't hesitate to use Dawson Plastering again, and I have already passed his details on to a friend. Thanks Dave, great job

Dave fitted in my job on a commercial restaurant at very short notice & his work was excellant. I would definitely use Dave again & would have no problem recommending him to others. Every now & then you meet a conscientious professional & its worth it. Graham Padstone Build Ltd

The work was to skim the artex on a ceiling, and skim one wall. I had a very prompt response to my query, with a fair price and a fairly immediate start date. It helps both parties if you can send photos via WhatsApp, along with an idea of dimensions - it saves Dave from having to travel to visit in order to give a price, and it expedites the process - meaning you can get the work done sooner! Dave showed up exactly at the time he said he would, he and Ryan were polite, professional and efficient, and they left the place spotless. The wall and ceiling are smooth and look flat, and the join between planes looks clean. I just want it to hurry up and dry so I can paint it! I definitely recommend Dave and would use Dawson Plasterers again.

Dawson plastering have been working on our major refurb project coming in as and when we’re ready for them room by room. Dave is a great guy and excels in his work. Together with Ryan our house has been transformed and we couldn’t be happier with the work done . All walls are as smooth as glass a great finish. If your looking for a first class plasterer Dave’s your man. Would highly recommend.

Had really quick and helpful replies from Dave when initially scoping out the job. Arrived on schedule and walked through everything they'd be doing and how it would fit in with other work (coving etc.). Dave was able to cover off the job including adjustments from the original job request within the day, which I was most appreciative of as it kept the wider work on schedule. Both Dave and Ryan were really friendly and approachable. Quality of the work speaks for itself and I'm very happy with it and would readily recommend. Would hire again.

Great service from Dave. He arrived on time and was very efficient. The two walls I needed plastering were in terrible condition, but Dave got them looking brand new again. Would 100% recommend.
