McCarthy Plastering

Colin was awesome to work with. Showed up on time, did great work and the price was reasonable. I will happily hire them again if we need plastering work in the future.

Colin did an excellent job! He's very professional, very accommodating, and exceeded all of my expectations. I would certainly hire him again and refer him to anyone needing plastering done. Thanks, Colin! Diane, Tewksbury

Colin was available right away. He was quick and professional--and he is a nice guy, so you feel great about having him do the work. We recently purchased a home, and soon after moving in, the hot summer weather revealed to us that the previous owner had kept a cat in the laundry room and allowed it to spray all over the walls and floor. We had to tear out the floor and the bottom two feet of wall, as well as the ceiling in the closet below to remediate. Once the drywall went back in, we called several recommended plasterers who were either too busy to do the job, or showed up hours late just give us an estimate. Colin fit us in to his schedule right away, and called when he was on his way to give us the estimate. His quote was on par with others we had received. Then he came back next day! He was quick, clean, and very professional. He also did a beautiful job creating a smooth transition between the new drywall and the existing drywall (which to be honest, wasn't installed perfectly flush to begin with). I will definitely call Colin again, if I ever need a plasterer.

Colin was incredibly prompt; couldn't believe how quickly we were able to go from estimate to completed work (48 hours). He and Eric did all the areas as requested and showed attention to detail on other spots I hadn't noticed. The blended repair on the swirl pattern was a major concern and it turned out really well. Everything was clean and put back in its place at the end. We had thought about doing the work ourselves, but this just saved us hours of work and bumbling through it and it looks great!

Colin did an excellent job replacing a large section of the drywall in our garage. We were in a rush to get this work done, and Colin worked hard to fit this into his schedule. He did such a great job texturing that we cannot even see where the existing wall was and the new wall starts. He left our garage spotless.

It’s not often I that I write reviews, but Colin and his team are incredibly deserving. We did our due diligence and received multiple quotes based off of reviews from this site. In the end we decided to hire Colin and his team. We couldn’t be happier that we did. He was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. He was quick to respond to my emails/calls, showed up everyday on time, and completed the project when he said he would. Colin is an honest, hard working guy who’s talents speak for themselves. The finished product looks amazing. A+ all around. I’d highly recommend him and will absolutely be using him again on future projects.

Colin was a pleasure to do business with. The crew showed up on time and worked with and around other contractors I had there at the same time. Would definitely use again!!

Excellent. Colin and his team did a great job. They completed the job on schedule and on budget. They prepped the rooms prior to starting and cleaned the spaces prior to leaving.

Very well. Very nice outcome. Some minor rough spots around outlets, but overall a beautiful job.

When I called him on Friday afternoon, I came to my house next day Saturday morning 7 o'clock. He took care more spots than I asked for. Then, he came back next day as I asked few questions on his job. The most professional I have seen.

As always... very professional, quick, clean and excellent workmanship ... all for reasonable rates. Colin is a great choice for plastering.

Colin was great to communicate & work with. Colin stopped over provided us a very fair & competitive quote and started 2 weeks later. Colin actually listens to you, shows up and calls you back really nice guy. The final work product is awesome. The blue board went up rather quickly no damaged sheets metal corner bead and the recessed lights and outlets were cut out perfectly. Now to the plaster job - it came out unbelievable it looks like a sheet of ice. The walls, ceiling & soffit boxes all look perfect. Two of the contractors noted it was one of the best jobs that they saw. We have Colin coming back this weekend to do some more work. We highly recommend him

Excellent! Colin did a very professional job in repairing wall. Wall had to be left in perfect condition ready for painting, which it was. If you require any plastering services, do not hesitate to contact Colin. You will be very pleased with his finished job,

Colin did an amazing job. I was extremely impressed with how meticulous he was when covering all inside areas to prevent dust and plaster residue. They performed flawlessly; an extremely professional job. Price was more than reasonable. I would absolutely use them again. Highly recommend.

Really well. Colin is responsive, punctual and did a great job. They were in and out in 2 and a half days and left a clean workspace. Walls look great. Would highly recommend.

His quality of work was excellent and his responsiveness was exceptional, particularly given the timing around the holidays. In fact, Colin had to return to fix an issue introduced by my other contractors (for some reason, they started applying joint compound to the arched ceilings in two bedrooms when it wasn't needed), and showed up the same day I called (12/22) to fix the issue. The greatest concern was patching of my living room ceiling, which had ~4 feet removed, so the patchwork had to blend in seamlessly. There is no visible indication anywhere that would indicate that work was performed, as he plastered over the new drywall perfectly. I would absolutely recommend Colin. His professionalism, quality of work, and flexibility / responsiveness were commendable.

perfectly ! Truly amazing. Colin truly saved my ceilings. In addition, he his extremely meticulous and clean. We're talking about joint compound application and sanding etc. He covered the floors, and wet clean the floors once done. you can't tell that such intrinsically messy job was done, that's how clean he is.

The job was well done and I am very satisfied. The cost was very reasonable as well.

Colin was a pleasure to work with and does great work.

Colin McCarthy came to assess the job the same day I called, provided an estimate that evening and scheduled the repairs within a few days. He came at the appointed time and completed the work despite an ongoing snowstorm! The room looks great. I would absolutely recommend McCarthy Plastering.

Fantastic. Communication and response perfect, Colin arrived punctually, finished early. Have hired plasterers for more than 35 years in the area and Colin is by far the best one we have ever had the pleasure to hire. Definitely hire again.

Colin was very punctual and a pleasure to work with; price was fair and reasonable. Prompt response for a small issue after plastering. I would definitely recommend Colin and I plan to use him again to install another plaster ceiling. Plaster ceilings are more attractive than drywall in my opinion.

I can’t speak highly enough of Colin. I was able to reach Colin right away and schedule him to look at our plaster job. He came by that same day. When he was running late on another job, he called to let me know, which I find very refreshing these days. He showed up as promised, when promised and completed the job on time and on budget. He was personable and professional ~ I would not hesitate to use him again and I would recommend him to anyone. He is a rare and great find!

Colin is the type of tradesman you hope to hire when you need work done on your house. I cannot speak highly enough of him and his work. From start to finish with this project, he was responsive, punctual, honest, and hard working. The price for the project was very reasonable. This is a MESSY job, but Colin and his crew cleaned up meticulously after each day, and did a fabulous job of containing the mess to just the rooms they were working in, and taped down paper along the hardwood floors in areas they were walking through outside of those rooms. Colin went above and beyond, helping to patch a few other ceiling holes created by the electricians (he did this at no extra cost, and was gracious about it). He even helped to move some really heavy furniture out of the rooms that I could not do by myself. And he did not try to up-sell me on other projects like other contractors -- much appreciated. The end quality of his work was fabulous -- smooth, even ceilings. I would hire him again in an instant. Highly, highly recommended.

Everything turned out great. Some of the areas were very challenging, and Colin was able to make it all come together beautifully. He and his partner were able to complete the work as quoted and on schedule. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work at a fair price.
