Some small ceilings, some bigger. I expect these quotes seem too low, but hardly unusual for us to hear as 3 quotes were around the same sort of figure. It was the quote of £500 that even we thought was too low. We wouldn't use...
Every quote has come in under £1250
Sorry if that offends you, but that is the truth.
I don't think there is any need to be rude, I say it as I am quoted it. One quote was £500. I agree that that price is ridiculous, but every quote has been far under £2000.
We are up north if that...
That does sound like a fabulous idea! I could put this to the person we liked most out of the four plasterers we have spoken to. A guy in Blackburn came to give us a quote this afternoon, and for some reason he came across as a person with integrity.
It is so worrying for us because we don't...
Thank you. Yes we are wary of these websites, as reviews could be fake, we don't have any personal recommendations unfortunately.
We will ask to see their work, I guess if they can't show us previous work we will have to discount them.
Thank you. We would like to see work they have carried out first, we haven't asked to see a past job yet, but we will do before going ahead with a quote.
My only concern is that they could show a friends house which has been plastered by someone else and show it as their own work. I suppose...
That is a good idea, I think when we have chosen a plasterer, we'll ask him if he will do that for us. That way we will know he can do a good job, so the rest of his work should match up.
It is so difficult because each person will be so different. One guy said "without using thistlebond-it...
Thank you. Each plasterer said the ceilings aren't too bad, so plastering over shouldn't be a problem. I just wondered about the difference between thistlebond-it and PVA? Also the timescale between applying a bond and plastering etc? I know the plasterer who came up with the cheapest quote said...
Hello all.
We are planning on having our lovely artexed ceilings skimmed and have had several quotes. Most quotes come in at just over £1000 and this is for a small 4 bed home.
One quote came in at £500 which seems very low, are we best to avoid such a low quote seeing as it is over half...
