I'd appreciate some help with how to manage this plastering work please.
It's the first time I've had plasterers working for me. They came highly recommended from a friend.
They have finished working in this room and I'm not happy with some of the finish. I expected, and asked, for the edges and corners to be square and straight. I didn't think I was being unreasonable when I asked.
As well as these photos showing the undulations of that 135º corner some of the plasterwork at the corners seems to be pretty flat and then build up so that there's a good few mm of a curve before the actual edge. And the edges seem pretty bumpy. On one surface, near the window, you can see the outline of the scrim tape for a couple of inches below the plaster.
Any help on how to approach this and get the finish I want would be greatly appreciated.
I need to speak to them in the morning and I want the best from this.
Thanks very much!
