Help !

[MC28]

Hi all... just after a bit of help after just having paid £1250 to have a plastering job completed at my home... the finish for me seems totally sub standard but the plasterer is insisting he isn’t to blame... any advice would be greatly appreciated... I have attached images below, thanks !

My advice to your plasterer would be confiscate his trowel its extremely poor quality that

Hate posts like this when just finished a job

 

[ChrispyUK]

Often 2 sides to these posts, but that is just shite.

How much did he do, one room, several, rough meterage etc?

Looks like it’s gone on too thick to me in places then pulled in too quick for him to trowel it flat, others trowelled up when too wet.

Layed on with a floppy flop and finished with a quick getaway

he insists the decorator with 40 years experience is s**t as is the paint we used

I understand that, just wanted confirmation from people in the know that the job was bad as I thought

 

[MC28]

4 days

Looks like you have duvets on your wall. Don’t pay the c**t.

 

[tapit]

I'd be willing to bet the job is Ayrshire sort of way.

midlands

 

[Stevieo]

Ayrshire, Midlands it's a toss up isn't it.....has he been Caspered or Lurpaked?

At £1200 he wasn't lurpaked was he?

I did some work on a house a few years back, not plastering. Same shitty finish and meant to be pro spreads.

Did the 'spread' arrive in an airport taxi?

 

[paulf]

nay lurpak would've charged double that...... my hero gods gift to spreads

£1200 is the giveaway, would be disgusted if anyone on here did all that work for that kind of money.
@John j excepted, for obvious reasons.

 

[The Hobo]

hope he didn't tape the beads on big enough f**k up as it is

 

[johniosaif]

I know someone who could drive there quickly

 

[johniosaif]

@johniosaif is this one of yours ?

I've dealt with plasterers who said it wasn't their fault,

 

[ChrispyUK]

I've dealt with plasterers who said it wasn't their fault,

I give myself a talking to now and again
