Testimonials

Paul has done several pieces of work for us over the years. He is a skilled plasterer who is happy to tackle small standard jobs such as skimming existing plaster work, re-plastering and fitting coving in small or modern rooms, to more complex jobs requiring high standard craftsmanship.

Paul carried out all our plastering in our Grade 2 listed Georgian house (1740’s), which was in need of damage repair. In particular, he showed his expertise and attention to detail when repairing the large very ornate Rococo ceiling (22 feet x 18 feet). His care and high quality skills in carrying out such a delicate and extensive repair are to be applauded. The Conservation Officer also praised his work on the ceiling.

Paul sets himself high standards and always gives us clear advice on the options open to us; ensuring that we would never do anything inappropriate.

He is a pleasure to have around, always interesting and for added value keeps the place clean and appreciates good coffee! We trust him in and with our home and have no hesitation in recommending him or any of his associates to provide an excellent service.

We are happy to speak to anyone on the phone for further reassurance if necessary.

Paul came highly recommended from a friend and I was not disappointed. He completed a number of projects including plastering, archway constructing and ornate coving, all of which were completed to the highest possible standard.  I would highly recommend Paul to anyone who is looking for a craftsman of the upmost quality as well as a trusted worker and genuinely nice man.

I live in a large old Victorian house which has needed lots of work doing to it. Paul Barker has plastered many walls and ceilings and has installed new Victorian coving to a number of rooms.

I have been very impressed and pleased with the quality of his work, cleanliness, reliability and honesty. I would recommend him to anyone.
