Dan did such a great job with our 17th century lime wall. Painstakingly removing the modern repair without damaging the surrounding plaster and then re-lathing and finishing with lime plaster. You can hardly see where the repair is even though we didn't skim the whole wall to preserve wall paintings. Very clean and tidy and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again, highly recommended.
Great job, gave us exactly what we wanted and finished to what appears to be a very high standard, really took his time getting everything perfect. Was really friendly and slotted in our job really quickly, even though it was only a small job. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
