Cracks were not feathered out to blend with existing and original plaster. Skim coating had irregular, sloppy pattern. Workers were unprofessional in attitude. Mistakes were made that were not explained even when questioned after the job was complete. Would never recommend or hire again.
Description of Work: Plastering to fix wall, ceiling cracks and skim coat the ceilings.

Response from John Streurer Plastering Co
John Steurer Plastering Company has been in business since 1921. It is currently owned and operated by third generation plasterers. We have completed many, many jobs for customers who were very satisfied, and in several cases, stated in writing that they were satisfied. The work we performed for the member did not meet her expectations. We offered to do the work over at no cost to the member. Instead of accepting our offer, she proposed a settlement which saved her over $1,000. We accepted the settlement. Even after the settlement I felt distressed that she was so unhappy with the work, and about a week after the settlement, I called the member and again offered to do the work over at no cost to her. She said she did not want the work redone and that the work had been painted and that she now was satisfied.

I appreciate the honest appraisal I just received from company rep Brad McArthur. I asked for an estimate on a job that turns out to be unnecessary. The minor problem that exists can be solved with a little work on my part. Rather than try to sell me work that does not need to be done (as others have), Brad explained how I can solve the problem myself. He explained in detail exactly what I need to do. He is giving me a bid on some additional work that could be done later if I choose. If I ever need plaster work, or if someone asks me for a referral, this company is at the top of my list.
Description of Work: I requested a bid and was told I could save money by doing a little bit of work that I am fully capable of doing myself.

THE MAN THAT CAME OUT TO GIVE ME A BID WAS BRAD MCARTHUR. HIS WORKERS ARE ALWAYS ON TIME. THEY WERE HERE FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS. THE ALWAYS CLEANED UP REALLY WELL.
Description of Work: THEY CAME OUT BEFORE I HAD PAINTING DONE, AND DID A LOT OF PLASTERING. IT WAS MORE LIKE A STUCCO.

Brad McArthur did a GREAT job from start to finish for a relatively small job. He was on time for the estimate and the work and called to reconfirm the time the day of. It was a small job but we appreciate the promptness in scheduling and the reasonable price. The original estimate was $130.00 but Brad finished quicker than thought and only charged $80.00. Work was done to the specifications of the proposal. Very highly recommended.
Description of Work: Repaired water damage to a window area in home.

The estimated was given in a very timely manner. I was informed it would be three weeks before they could perform the work. The work began three weeks from estimate. The workers were punctual and very polite. Their work was very professional and they cleaned up after the job. They also found and repaired minor cracks that were not included on the original quote without additional charges. I would definitely use this company again.
Description of Work: Replaced dining room ceiling; re-plastered bathroom ceiling; patched two holes in wall; repaired cracks in living room, office and kitchen ceiling. Also repaired wall cracks in various locations throughout the house.

The work was done very promptly with no mess whatsoever. I was unable to be home during the day and left my key under the mat for the worker.
Description of Work: Two small areas were plastered, one about 2 square feet, the other roughly the same size and surrounding a switch plate.

HE WAS FAST, AND DID A GOOD JOB. WHILE HE REPAIRED ALL THE LARGE BLEMISHES, SOME OF THE SMALLER ONES WERE OVERLOOKED.
