Rosie
Super pleased with plastering work completed by Upkeep - I have a holiday home in the New Forest and their attention to detail was great, I now have a kitchen to be proud of!
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend if you're needing maintenance or any home improvements done.
Thanks Shane for a great job :)
