“Had my front extension plastered by ALB pastering and rendering, cant fault any of the work they carried out. Arrived when they said they would, put down flooring protection to keep everything clean, would never of known they had been in apart from the perfect plastered walls and ceilings. So very polite and friendly. Will definitely use them again and highly rate them for anyone needing work being carried out”
