Internal plastering & skimming
We skim walls and ceilings and put right plaster that has had enough, once the base behind it is sound. Patch repairs are fine too; it does not have to be a whole room.

Plastering and rendering for homes and renovations, plus external wall insulation on extensions and new builds.
5-star rated · 500+ happy customers since 2004
A local team
We are a small plastering and rendering team working around Southampton, for homeowners as often as for builders and developers. Whether it is one damaged ceiling or a whole extension, the preparation gets as much time as the finish. That is the part that decides how the walls look once they are painted.
You deal directly with Terry. He will look at the job, tell you what it needs and put a price in writing before anyone starts.

Customer feedback
“Excellent standard of work. Work ethic, professionalism, technical knowledge and skill are exceptional. After the initial inspection of the bedrooms Terry suggested building new window reveals and sills in the front bedrooms which transformed the overall look of the rooms. The plastering is to the highest standard; flat ceilings, alcoves and walls. I would recommend Terry to anyone who wants the best.”
“Quite simply the best we've worked with in the trade. The craftmanship was outstanding, work-rate exemplary. The project involved a 350 year old house renovation with lots of delicate repairs, several headaches and Terry couldn't do more to help us achieve our goals. He really took time and care to understand what we were trying to do with the project, he plastered to many different uneven surfaces and came up with ingenious solutions to solve real problems. A great talent, would recommend to everyone who needs a plasterer.”
“Superb. I picked Terry over others due to his great communication. That continued throughout the project, he was flexible as I had to time his work around others who weren't so good at communicating. He recommended certain products and ways of rendering that weren't necessarily better for him but would work better in our circumstance. Workmanship is great and he was very friendly and approachable on top. No hesitation in recommending.”
“Terry is a first class tradesman, from start to finish. He is timely and tidy, and keeps you informed of the whole process, as well as texting to let you know when he is coming to work. He went above and beyond, as he had to remove a balustrade, downpipes and a trellis to access the area. These were all replaced at the end of the job. We would have no hesitation in recommending Terry for any plastering/rendering work!”
“It was a pleasure to have Terry & Will re-rendering our bungalow, professional and tidy at all times. It's nice to see that the old fashioned art of grafting with professionalism hasn't disappeared completely. Thanks Terry.”
“Terry has recently built stud walls in our garage to partition it into two separate areas, fully insulated and with access doorway. We've used him before and as always the quality is excellent, he's quick, leaves the place clean and he's very friendly. Importantly, he listens to what we want done, recommends the best way to do things and is flexible to adjust things along the way if needed. Previously Terry has converted kitchen and dining room into one open space, built patios, screeded floors and plastered endless walls and ceilings, and we have no hesitation in recommending him to others.”
“We are so grateful for Terry's hardwork, he single handedly skimmed five ceilings in two days. He is very professional, friendly, prompt and efficient. Thank you for your advice and for helping us update our family home. We will be in touch for phase two!”
“Thoroughly recommend Terry and his team. Old fashioned grafting hasn't disappeared. All workings planned and professionally executed, very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. See you again soon for part two.”
“Terry and his team were not only polite, friendly and professional, they were a pleasure to have at our home. They all work really hard and take a pride in what they do and enjoy working together. We had our house fully rendered using a multi layer system which is beautiful... it has transformed our home. Terry took such care with us... helping us to choose and decide on certain elements... his patience knows no bounds!”
