We were delighted with the service and outstanding quality of workmanship provided by Aiden. The initial advice provided by Aiden and his detailed and prompt quote was much appreciated. The fact that Aiden coordinated not only the plastering but additional carpentry and electrical work and sourced an excellent painter made it stress free for us. We also appreciated the daily updates and photos. Aiden also ensured that a thorough clean up was completed. Would highly recommend this company.

Could not recommend Aiden enough! He was the third plasterer that we had asked for a quote - the only one to show up!! And the job was done within a week
He was friendly, respectful of my home and did a wonderful job. He was great communicating details to myself and he left the house spotless! I will be recommending Aiden from now on! Thanks again!

Seemed friendly enough on the phone but then started sending what appeared to be generic text messages asking for an undisclosed fee to quote and explaining that the fee was required to cover time and Materials required to quote. I tried to call him for an explanation but wouldn't answer my calls. Eventually after a few messages the I was able to find out he wanted $250 for the quote which would be refundable if i went ahead with the job.
Had he been straight forward when he first took my call I might have considered paying his quotation charge.

I had submitted an enquiry for LED downlights to be installed into my Victorian era home with lath and plaster ceilings, I can confidently say the work performed by Aiden from Erin Solid Plasterers exceeded my exceptions and the LED lighting throughout the home is fantastic. From the initial enquiry to Aiden coming onsite to review and give professional feedback on the risks, best practices and possible problem areas I felt confident and assured on the outcome. Aiden is a true professional in his work and I have no hesitations giving future recommendations if asked.
