Don't like to leave a bad review, however Restoration Plaster (Mark) has put us through hell over…read morethe past 8 months. He did various work in our property including replacing our living room ceiling and installing new cornice - the old ceiling was taken down in February, and the work has only just been finished in October. This has meant that we haven't been able to use it for in excess of half a year. He consistently told us he would be there to finish the job, and it would be done 'this week', then never turned up. I think his record for not showing up was 4 times in one week... I advised that I would be claiming money back through VISA as the work was not finished after 7 months and we were constantly being let down, at this point Mark called aggressively shouting and swearing advising that he wanted the cornice back he had installed, then hung up (despite the fact that we had paid for it). Someone else who worked with Mark then got in touch saying they would come round to finish the work which happened after about another 2 weeks. I spent a full day cleaning up the mess left behind, with two trips to the skip, and now we have started painting, we can see that the cornice is not straight (despite a new ceiling being put in), there are several cracks and imperfections in the cornice, and some of the cornice joints are very noticeable.
