Description of Work: Drywall and Plastering to walls and ceilings from water leak    
I contacted Bestwall Plastering to give me an estimate on some drywall and plastering work I needed. They arrived on time for estimate and was very knowledgeable about his profession, you can tell that Kieran knows what he is doing, he examined all the walls and ceilings then gave me a written estimate and explained everything that he was going to do and the time frame that it would take. It was well worth the consultation charge that I was credited to the cost of the job, it was a win win situation for me. On the day of the start of the job, Kieran and his crew arrived on time, they protected the rooms that was not getting any work to, they laid covering on the floors and also plastic so there would be no footprints and dust in my home. They done exactly what they said they told me they were going to do. They made the walls and ceiling perfect. It never looked better. I will recommend them to neighbors and friends if anyone is looking for similar work. The price was great also. Great company.

Description of Work: I removed 3 large mirrors from a wall, which pulled the plaster down. I had cleaned up the loose pieces and had the wall re-plastered.
After getting a few quotes, many turned out to be guys who wanted to tape and spackle the wall, rather than plaster it. I wanted the wall re-plastered, like the rest of the house. It cost a little more, but Kieran was worth it. The process he used involved no sanding and the wall is smooth and perfect. He is truly an artist and takes pride in every job, even a simple wall. I only wish the rest of my walls looked this good now!

Description Of Work: Had electrical work done and needed the holes that the electrician left repaired.
I had some electrical work done on my house and the electrician had made several holes to get behind the walls to run new wiring, when he was finished my walls were like swiss cheese. I called Bestwall Plastering to come for an estimate, they arrived on time and very professional, he walked through my house with me and took note of all the holes, gave me an estimate and the price was excellent, they came back 2 days later and repaired all the holes and skimmed the walls.
Great workers, on time, clean and very courteous.
Would recommend.

Description: Plaster Repair
I had water damage to 2 bedrooms from a leak in my roof, I have an older home so the walls are real plaster not drywall and spackle, so I wanted to the repairs to be done in plaster but a lot of contractors out there don't do real plaster, they drywall and tape, I know that drywall and taping would fix my water damaged walls but I wanted the real thing. I found Bestwall Plastering while searching the internet and their reviews were great so I contacted them. They came and spent an hour with me explaining what needs to be done, how long it was going to take etc. I was delighted. They arrived a couple of days later, removed all the damaged walls and ceiling, installed and plastered everything. It took 2 days. Before they started they protected my floors and stairs, enclosed the rooms with plastic sheet so none of the rest of house would be disturbed while they were working. They were on time every day, very respectful of me and my home.
They did an awesome job.

Description: Part of my ceiling fell down.
I came home from work and part of my kitchen ceiling was sitting on the floor. I went on line and searched for plastering/drywall repair contractors, found Bestwall Plastering and as it was an emergency they went out of their way to come and take a look, we agreed a price, date & time for them to do the job.  They were great. Glad I found them.

Description: Repair walls after paneling was removed.
WOW, doesn't even come close to the reaction I had when I seen the finished walls. It was like night and day. I had bought an old house and there was paneling in the family room I removed some of it thinking i could just paint and be done, but when I started I knew this was more than I could handle so I called in the experts. I went on line and searched for plastering and drywall companies, and found Bestwall Plastering, they came looked at my walls and said no problem, we will fix this for you, gave me an estimate and the price was great. Arranged the day to start, they removed all the paneling and took all the trash with them, (less for me to have to worry about).  They fixed and plastered the walls, they are so smooth now, my family room puts the rest of my house to shame, I will be getting them back when I am ready to tackle the hall and stairway (more paneling). Awesome company and magnificent service & craftsmanship.

Description: Sections of the living room ceiling were buckling and one had fallen. Bestwall Plastering replaced three larger sections and repaired a couple of smaller areas, saying it was not necessary to replace the whole ceiling.
We set up an appointment and Bestwall Plastering was prompt and reassuring.  He explained how the areas would be repaired and re-plastered, gave us a very reasonable quote and set a date to do the work.  It was postponed because of the hurricane and loss of power, but he responded as soon as our power was restored, a relief since a second section was bulging even more.  The work was completed by midday and looks like new.

Description: Utility room had water damage. Needed repair/replaced.
My utility room which is built in to my back porch had water damage from a recent storm, I was not sure what was the best option for repair, I had a few contractors come and explain to me what need to be done, 2 of them wanted to do spackle and taping which was a cheap but very messy and dusty option. Bestwall Plastering came and told be they could replace the drywall and use a veneer plaster which was a little more expensive but there would be 99% less dust and cleaning up after. They were very clear in what my options were and explained how long it would take and what they would do. 2 days later they came done exactly what they said they would do. That was a month ago, I have since had my utility room painted and it looks great. Very happy with the experience and professionalism of Kieran and his crew.

Description:  Stairway and hall need to be re-plastered.
They were prompt, professional, pleasant, friendly, very clean and efficient. They explained everything in detail before performing any work. I have a long hall and a steep staircase, it was all cracks and had fluffy plaster in places from water damage. They completely plastered walls and ceiling and the walls are as smooth as glass now, it is a shame I have to paint it. They cleaned up every day before leaving and it was a fantastic experience. I recommend Bestwall Plastering for all your plastering needs.

Description: Plastering & molding replacement.
The walls and ceiling in my formal dining room were bad with flaky plaster, they needed to be repaired. There was a molding on the ceiling which I thought could not be repaired but to my surprise, when Bestwall Plastering came to give me the estimate, they told be it can be repaired and they could replace/make a replica of the missing pieces, I was so happy. They re-plastered the walls, the ceiling and repaired the molding. My dining room is fabulous now. I received wonderful service from  Bestwall Plastering and will be recommending them to every one I know.

Description: Plaster molding repair /water damage.
W e have an older home 1935 which had some serious water damage and some of the ceilings /walls and plaster molding that needed repair. We contacted Bestwall Plastering  who arrived on time looked at the job and he carefully explained the entire process from start to finish, A concern of ours was the dust problem, But everything was protected prior to work been started and they use veneer plaster not  drywall compound so there is no sanding, they worked very fast and left our home very clean .They took a profile of the plaster molding and actually made it on the job Everything looks great would highly recommend Bestwall Plastering for any detailed work.

Description: I had an addition to my Victorian home which left an interior door and a large window which had to be replaced with solid plaster to match the rest of the room. 
Bestwall Plastering came on July 3rd to see the job and gave an estimate which I found was reasonable.  He returned Friday at 8:30 am to perform services.  They did a great job.  You cannot tell that there was a window and door in the walls that he repaired.  I believe that the $75 consultation charge is reasonable for a professional to estimate the cost of a job.  The consultation charge was deducted from the cost of the job.  I would definitely call him again.

Description: Re-surfaced ceiling in dining room, sitting room and bedroom
Kieran is the master of plaster! He resurfaced a hideous stucco ceiling in my dining room and it is even and smooth. He also removed two large and heavy beams and all the crown molding from my living room and smoothed them over. The third room, the bedroom had sagging plaster between the ceiling beams and he strengthened and smoothed it to perfection, His actions define "professional" - from his accomplished skills as a plasterer to his customer service. I would recommend Kieran without reservations. A+++

Description: Walls/Ceilings Plaster molding.
Needed elaborate plaster molding installed in my kitchen to match my living room was built in 1880. Bestwall arrived explained the job and gave us a written proposal. They came back 2 days later took a cast of the mold and re created the plaster molding. Installed the new plaster molding and it looks terrific. We found it hard to find a company that can still do this type of work. They were clean, very fast friendly and finished on time.

Description: Re-skimmed two rooms.
I had 2 rooms in my house that need work done, Bestwall Plastering came out and gave me an estimate to re-skim the entire rooms. When they arrived to do the work, they covered all the areas they were going to be working in with plastic so the work would not interrupt the rest of my home. The job took 4 days and the rooms look magnificent just like new. There was no sanding involved as they used polished plaster not spackle/compound. They were professional, clean and very courteous. I will be contacting them again in the New Year to get some more work done.

Description: We had an old staircase wall that was falling down it had come loose and sagging. Kieran and his crew came in and removed all the loose plaster and re plastered the wall in the old style plastering. 
Bestwall Plastering was prompt, professional and very pleasant and friendly. He explained every step of the process, and completed the work right on schedule. My project included re-plastering a wall that ran up a long, steep staircase to my front door. At the end of each day, Kieran completely cleaned the hallway so that the stairs were useable each night. The plaster came out as smooth as glass. I was very happy with the work and will recommend Bestwall Plastering to my family and friends.

Description: Kieran had to match an existing plaster molding on the ceiling/wall which was water damaged from a recent leak. They started the job on time, took samples of the molding and when restored the match of the molding was absolutely exact. They also removed water damaged parts of the ceilings and walls and repaired them to look like it never happened. Kieran and his staff were very clean, courteous and quick doing their work, and done a lot of extra work which they did not charge us for. I would definitely recommend this company for any plaster restoration work you need to do. 
"Kieran is not only a master craftsman, he was a pleasure to have in our home. He went above and beyond the call of duty. Kieran did a better job than we had ever imagined, faster than we had ever hoped. He was not only prompt, he was clean and made a project we were previously nervous about, a very pleasant, worry-free experience. We will DEFINITELY be using him for any future work we need in our home restoration. Even our contractors and electricians were impressed with his work, not to mention us, who have already suggested him to any of our friends who will be undertaking plaster restoration projects soon."
