Bestwall Plastering Inc

Very well would recommend Highly skilled.

I hired Kieran and his team to restore the plaster throughout my home, which dates from the 1890s. I am beyond thrilled with the results. We had extensive cracking and separation of the plaster from the underlying bricks and wood lath. The results are incredible. Our walls are now smooth and solid and look amazing. I highly recommend Bestwall Plastering.

Needed plaster repair on walls and ceiling after water damage caused by a broken pipe. Bestwall Plastering are professional and experienced they removed the damaged parts of the wall and ceiling and repaired them perfectly. After a week, they came back and painted the whole room for me. Excellent job. Would recommend

Kieran was incredibly professional. He arrived exactly on time and started working immediately. He covered every single area of the room in plastic before doing any plaster. He finished in a timely fashion and cleaned up the entire room before he left. It was like he was never there. He did an absolutely brilliant job!! Would hire him again in a heartbeat. He's a great guy.

They were on time, courteous and professional.

I contacted them to get an estimate, they came and gave me a written estimate, I shopped around as I initially thought it was expensive, however after meeting a few other contractors, I realized that it was not that pricey as I was getting a better service and product. The walls and ceiling were repaired to perfection and I could not be happier. Would recommend - very professional, courteous and experienced.

Best Wall plastered my electrical outlets to the wall. Advertising as a professional, this should never have occurred in the first place. Pictures before and after fixed. Not much better. Had to return to replaster the ceiling and wall due to defects not covered initially.

He made his appointment on time and spent about 15 minutes review and writing up his estimate. He was courteous. The estimate was over $4,000 for the capital and staining. I feel as if the $75 look/see was just an easy way to make a couple of dollars in between jobs, He had beautiful pictures of very expensive plaster molding jobs, Customers need to know that if they want services from Bestwall, be prepared to pay big time.

We bought an older house that needed plaster repair as the condition of the walls, ceilings,were not great,We contacted Bestwall Plastering who came by and provided a written estimate and explained the process, time frame.they started within a week and the job went well, the end result is that our house looks like new, they used the old plastering methods not compound/spackle the whole process was clean not to much dust they were on time ,easy going and worked hard.Overall we had a great experience and would use again.

The process was great and the work impeccable. It was easy to set up the consultation, which is $75 but applies to the cost of your job should you proceed. This is well worth it as Bestwall are expert plasterers, not some fly by night home improvement shop trying to make a quick buck. Even if you don't use them the information from the consultation can be used in your planning with another contractor and almost no one knows about plaster work anymore. The work looks great and was done sooner than expected, they were willing to work weekends in order to finish as quickly as possible. And the best part, Kieran even helped me work with my insurance company so almost none of it came out of my pocket. Great experience, recommend without hesitation.

WE had a pipe break from upstairs which flooded the ceiling,walls molding. We found it hard to find a contractor who could restore plaster. We were glad to find Bestwall Plastering who provided a written estimate and also helped us with the insurance carrier. They were polite,clean on time The job took 8 days and turned out spectular. Old school plastering company.

I was offered 2 choices make it look good or make it as good as new. I chose the good as new since I plan to live in my house for a long while. It was a big job taking a full 5 days (about 65 man hours), 2 days for the living room and a day for each of the bedrooms. The plaster has to cure for 30 days before priming and painting, which I did myself. If you desire Bestwall Plastering will do the priming for you. I could of had the old plaster ripped out and sheet rock installed for less money but I wanted to keep the integrity of the house and I like the advantages of plaster over sheet rock e.g. low sound transmission, better fire resistance. It was amazing to see the difference the repair made, the cracks were all gone, water damage invisible, and small gaps gone. After the priming and painting the ceilings were beautiful and probably looked like they did 100 years ago. My one complaint is that small droplets of plaster on the walls weren't cleaned up in two of the bedrooms. The floors, walls, and furniture that was unable to be removed are protected by plastic sheeting. On the days that these bedrooms were done there was only one laborer and small splashes of plaster on the walls were missed and not wiped up. I cleaned them off latter myself using a drywall mud knife.

This could not have gone any better. Tony arrived punctually at the exact time he promised, looked at the cracked ceiling and then gave me his estimate. We arranged to have the work done over Saturday and Sunday. Tony uses the old fashioned way to repair plaster, using disks drilled into the lath with 4-inch screws, and then uses a mesh which is later smoothed over with plaster. Nobody had ever repaired my house this way. The result is spectacular. My house, located in Brooklyn Heights, built in 1828, had lost many historic details in the past. Fortunately, the way Tony did the work, we were able to save and restore the 10-inch ceiling molding as well. As to cleanliness, Tony used every precaution--covered my tenant's large paintings and removed and numbered the ones small enough to take out of the room, to later replace them where they belong. He also covered the floor, staircase and entrance. Amazing professionalism, punctuality and work quality. Deserves an A+, were that available. And yes, I'll hire him again, to paint the ceiling once it's dry, and to repair my stairs ceiling plaster, where it's cracking around a bend.

How did it go? As bad as possible, we didn't even get past the initial phone call. The guy answer the phone, which I'm assuming is the owner, was incredibly rude. He said he would need to see the medallions before giving an estimate so we told him we would be happy to bring them into their office but that wasn't good enough for him. He wanted that $75 cost to come out our place to see the medallions. Then if you go with his business, he'll deduct from the cost. But if you decide not to go with his services, he'll rob you of $75 for driving over to your house. I read through his comments and I blamed all the Fs for picky customers but learned the hard way. STAY AWAY.

I have written over 10 good reviews here on Angies List. To find those 10 good contractors, I have interacted with over 100 bad ones, and have never posted about those. This specific provider compelled me to post a bad review. He was very rude on phone. I would never do business with this provider. He wanted to come to my house and charge 75$ even to answer initial questions. I wasn't expecting a rate estimate on phone, but he wouldn't answer anything / even related to what work can he do / he can not do without charging me 75$ to come to my home for an estimate. I don't need an estimate if you can't first tell me your availability / and ability to do the job in the time frame I am asking for. I should not have to pay for the 'estimate' to check your schedule and ability to do the job I am asking for. UPDATE (Nov 17th): The provider has responded that "they are un able to answer price related questions on phone". My questions were not related to price. My questions were related to "if they will be able to schedule it in the time frame that I am looking for, if I call them for estimate and PAY for estimate", to which they responded very rudely and unprofessionally. How can I pay for estimate, if after the estimate they tell me that they won't be able to schedule the work until spring? This guy did not even want to listen to the questions without coming for a PAID estimate.

Came. spent 15 min max, showed me a nice booklet with pictures of prior work, quoted an insane price for less than 300 square feet of space ($4900) left with a $75 check. Great hustle. Oh and never called for a follow-up. Awesome business model, drive around town and collect stacks of checks for "professional reviews/quotes" I NEED TO MAKE THIS MY BUSINESS MODEL I'LL BE RICH! I'd stay away if I had another chance. Might be $75 richer.

Tell me that unless I pay $95 they will not come out to give me an estimate

PERFECT! Kieran arrived promptly when he said he would be there, gave a fair estimate of the cost and repaired the ceiling the same day. He was very personable, professional and an expert at what he does. I could not be more pleased. I would definitely use him in the future!

Kieran responded immediately to my call to set up an appointment. He was prompt and professional in explaining what steps needed to be taken to repair the plaster walls in the 77-year old home. He and his assistant, Sergio, began their days early and completed the work as was laid out in Kieran's plan in a timely manner. They took care to work as neatly as possible, although dust from this type of work is inevitable. They cleaned up the workspace when done with the job as well. Kieran's work is exemplary. He is a true professional, and stands behind his work. We followed his advice to wait two to three weeks before painting to allow the plaster to cure. At the end of the curing period, we were getting set to paint, and noticed parts of the finish on one wall did not look as smooth as the others. I described it to Kieran as looking like the veins on the back of your hand. He came the next day to assess the problem, and repaired the sections that needed it that same day. The problem did not recur. Since then, the room has been painted and looks fine. We chose Bestwall Plastering because of the excellent reviews from other Angie's List customers, and feel confident in giving them the same excellent recommendation.

I called the company to inquire about whether they were able to perform a service (hanging drywall on a ceiling). The person who answered the phone was particularly nasty and after I asked whether they could waive their $75 estimation fee he hung up the phone on me. First impressions count, particularly in this business. Which they won't be getting any of from me.

Plumbers created an 18" break in crown moulding and three 2 foot sq holes on flat surfaces. Kieran said all work incl the crown was easy to fix, would make mold in his yard. He showed me a book of his work, I liked him. Judging by his reviews on Angie's list I was expecting a quote $1,500-$1,800. His estimate turned out to be a stunning $5,700. I asked why, he said there were 4 holes. He was out the door before I could question him further. I found another plasterer who expertly built up the crown plaster over a day and a half. This man came back for a half day the following week to paint, which Kieran's estimate didn't even cover. The two days work cost me $1,000.

Kiernan was very prompt with his replies, and gave an honest and professional opinion on what I wanted to be done and what he also suggested to be done. Once I decided to work with him, an opening was available to get the job done within the next couple of days. He and his crew came on time and was able to complete the wall and ceiling within 5-6 hours. They brought in their own equipment and covered and cleaned up during and afterwards where they could. Overall, the job looks fine and I do feel better now that the wall and ceiling have been reinforced to last a long while more.

The workers showed up promptly at 8:00 and were very professional. They put plastic over every doorway and cleaned up after they were finished.

Following work to replace electrics in several rooms in an old brooklyn brownstone, we needed several holes (including some very large ones) patched and plastered over. In addition, plaster work around a ceiling fan needed to be fixed. Keiran responded to my request and followed up quickly. We were able to schedule a day fairly quickly, and Keiran and his team completed the job in one day. I would use them again and am very happy with the entire job.

We just haven't been able to get the work scheduled. We have had it schedxuled twice and they have had a problem coming out. They are very nice; the scheduling process just isn't working out for us.
