Amazing Lofts came to install loft storage and move my hatch yesterday. I'm happy with the former but not the latter.

The render to cover the old hatch is very rough. I've been at it with 120 grit for two hours, and there are still pits and lines. It's going to need polyfiller and more sanding before I can paint.

Is this an acceptable level of quality? On the one hand, it's far better than I could do, but on the other hand, I couldn't even see the patch when another chap did my kitchen a couple years ago.

You should have taken some pics before you started sanding , but yes it's not acceptable best thing to do at this point would be to feather the rough edges in with easifil , you will find the easifil goes on better if you mist coat the bare plaster first
