He's done a fantastic job plastering over a textured bedroom ceiling. He's a real perfectionist! We're so pleased with the results. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and if we need more plastering done in the future we wouldn't use anyone else." > Source: Elizabeth Roberts (5.0, via TrustATrader) > "We recently had Ray from Shaw Finish Plastering complete work in our home and couldn’t be happier. His communication was excellent from the start, offering dates that suited us and keeping us updated for both the quote and the job. He took time to understand our requirements and checked in throughout to ensure everything was as expected. His estimate was accurate with no surprises. Professional, friendly and polite, he also left everything clean and tidy. He was brilliant with our dog, who can be temperamental, which made things much easier. The quality of his work is outstanding. It was a large ceiling with skeiling and niches, and he gave helpful advice before starting. The final result is excellent and we’re extremely pleased. I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend Ray from Shaws Plastering and will definitely be using his services again for any future work." > Source: Jason (5.0, via TrustATrader) ## Trades Plasterer / drywaller ## What we checked, and when _What MyTrustedTraders independently checked for this business (verified items only):_ - Review volume: MyTrustedTraders shows 12 public reviews on this profile.
