Job description

Exterior plastering
Wellington

Published: 22 October 2023

I have just put some pavers on some concrete steps that were originally plastered and painted. No surprise, the surface has been really messed up, and I need it re-plastered (mostly the vertical faces below the pavers) for painting. See the photos. Time is of the essence here as this needs to be done in time for me to do the painting before my wife gets back from England on Saturday week (4th of November).

I was pleased when Steve took on the job - good reviews of previous work, onto it quickly. When I got round to preparing the surface for painting, I was very disappointed with the quality of the finish. The old surface had been reasonably smooth. The new one was rough and uneven, with visible streaks in the plaster, and way, way too much plaster under the new pavers which I had to chip away. I had to spend time tidying up the plaster, and the final paint finish wasn't as good as I'd hoped.
