Builder/Plasterer needed.

[Manda]

Hi everyone,

We have a house in Mussidan 1/2 north of Bergerac which is stuck in a 1970's timewarp.

We need a reliable builder/plaster to sort house out. 4 beds /2 lounges/dining room/ Kitchen/ Bathroom/Hall.

We want all the walls plastered, pipes put into walls(have had central heating fitted and the pipes run like a race track ) and ceilings sorted.

The French builder we have used for a few bits wants to insulate the walls with 8cm thick plasterboard and cannot understand that we just want to skim over the walls. Also he does not turn up until we are due to return to France.

Any recommendations would be gratefully received.

I would prefer someone who can speak English as my French is getting there but its still English French

Amanda,

You could try contacting Charles Fleming at Hautefort Renovation:

But be prepared for a wait for anyone decent and registered.

Good luck with your project!

Kind regards,

Hi Manda

You contacted me way back earlier in the year and I tried to get hold of you but didn't have your correct mobile number and husband had cleverly wiped off your message on the answering machine.  We used an English plasterer based near Ste Foy la Grande who is fully French registered and has been here for years (he even uses English plaster where appropriate) his name is Mike Webb and can be contacted on 05053581719 or mobile 0671983267.  His standard of plastering is excellent and he will also do other masonry work.  Hope this helps.

 

Best wishes
