European Plastering

We had to pay $100 for an estimate. We got another plaster contractor who was $2,500 cheaper and did a Beautiful job. So we never hired European plaster.

We had a fire in our home which destroyed rooms,We found it hard to find a real plastering company,George came provided an estimate for the insurance company ,which was approved, they started the job,,worked fast , clean and are courteous.the job took 3 weeks and turned out excellent.Highly recommended for plaster work as its difficult to find contractors with this skill.They have a call out charge of $75 which is credited towards the job ,which is definitely worth as they dealt with our insurance company to insure we were not out of pocket. would not hesitate to recommend.

All work went SPECTACULARLY well. They also painted the ceilings after the plasterwork was dry, 2 weeks later.

After repairing my fireplace in my Living room,I needed someone to match the plaster on my wall from circa 1914,my contractor told me he would not be able to match it,Thank god i found Tony at European plastering.he is a true artist,he did a spectacular job of matching it,so that no one can tell there used to be a great big hole on my wall above my fireplace and he was incredibly clean and tidy while doing it my entire room was covered in plastic the floors doorways,furniture,he really cares about his work and treated my home like his own.I am so pleased with the results.

Finding competent contractors can be a chore. Tony answered my emails/questions quickly, told me what needed to be done, and his price was reasonable to match plaster molding in our 1921 home. He is definitely the best and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended for detailed plaster work in older homes such as ours.

I told him about my house situation , and I agreed to pay the $75, for a final estimate. But apparently I made the big mistake of asking If he could gave me an idea of a range price 1k to 10k, 10k to 30k? But his answer was to hung up the phone while I was asking. If he thinks that my question denoted Im not the kind of client he wants to work with, he still can be nice and say it with manners. This is the rudest guy I've ever encountered, and I will not recommend anybody to call him unless your filthy rich or enjoy to be treated as garbage..

Exceptional work for a great price.We had a 1905 house with plaster and lathe that needed repair or re coating throughout many area of walls and ceilings cove ceilings, repair of holes and channels made from new electrical work and George gave us a good price much cheaper than drywalling and drywall would not be right for this house anyway,I had been worried that plaster work would burst our budget but it was reasonable .When his crew arrived they worked very carefully and very hard got everything done in a week and i am really happy with the work..The work looks great every time i look at our smooth and clean walls and ceilings I appreciate it.

I called and scheduled an estimate based on the reviews i had read,George came out looked at the work provided a written estimate,, we had water damage to the living room,they arrived early to start the work,protected the work space and worked fast,they left the area clean,and were friendly and pleasant to deal with. Would recommend based on my experience.

We recently had our kitchen re plastered,but we had it done with sheetrock and spackle.,There was an awful lot of dust even after a week you could still find it,So when it came to do the dining room,foyer ceilings we got a quote from George who came and showed us a sample of veneer plaster .The job now looks great .there was very little dust.It was more expensive but worth it especially if you have young children ,You do not want to breathe in that dust.its a far cleaner process.

partial ceiling collapse from water damage,i contacted european and they came out and provided an estimate,work was completed over 2 days and at a reasonable cost,would definitely recommend old school plaster experts.

We had a pipe breakage from our upstairs bathroom,My sister had used this company before,so we called ,George came and quoted a reasonable price,it was completed in 1 day,The are was left spotless,On time polite respectful.

Not good, why am I being charged after purchasing their coupon it's almost like I did not get a deal they get the money back that they were giving away in the sale. Not good.

See above, rude, horrible not worth your time to even call for work..

I found this company through good reviews on Angie's List, but I have NO IDEA how they have an A rating! I called to get an estimate and some additional information on a simple ceiling/soundproofing job. It took about a week to get in touch, but that was mainly my fault and my schedule. So, I finally spoke with Kiren (spelling ?) a few minutes ago. He said that they could absolutely do the job, but it would be a $95 estimate fee. Now, I completely understand that these guys can't run around NYC doing estimates for free (although many do), so I was not debating that at all. I simply explained to Kiren that I would like a little more information over the phone first because I've had several estimates, and most companies have severely overpriced the job (by thousands of dollars), which has made me a little skeptical to agreeing to the estimate fee without additional info. The reason I know that I've been taken advantage of and have been overpriced by a few bigger companies is that my father, who is currently ill and about to have surgery, is a contractor of many years. He knows what the job entails, as do I, so I just like for these guys to know that up front. He immediately said that he and his company aren't interested in working with me anymore and hung up the phone. SERIOUSLY?!?! I generally trust Angie's list reviews, but this couldn't be shadier or more unprofessional. I have no words except that I would never recommend this company to anyone and that I will never attempt to contact them again. If you're looking for a good contractor, do yourself a favor and get several estimates and do your research as to what the job entails. That way, no one can take advantage. These guys were real quick to schedule a $95 dollar estimate for this week, but upon asking additional questions, I saw what a huge (costly) mistake this could have been. Thank you European Plastering for showing your true colors up front, and not even giving me the opportunity to waste my time and money. UPDATE: In response to European Plastering, you are flat out lying that I was verbally abusive in any way. Just because I posted an honest review of a very unprofessional phone call that I had with you guys does not make me verbally abusive in any way. I was calling for a serious estimate, and just because I wanted a bit more information before agreeing to have you or one of your workers stop by for a paid in home estimate was no excuse for refusing to work with me and accusing me of being abusive. Perhaps this was an off day and I caught you at a bad time, and you do have multiple good reviews, but I can only comment on my personal experience with you guys. If you aren't willing to answer a few simple questions over the phone and that somehow threatens you enough to hang up and not work with me, then there is something shady about your company. You have every right to defend your company, but be honest in your reply. Of 5 companies that I've called to get estimates on this particular project, 3 were wonderful and were 100% willing to answer any questions I had beforehand. I spoke to them in the same manner I spoke with you, and no one else felt threatened about me inquiring about their experience and personal suggestions for the work I needed done.

He measuring the wall that needed the work. He said the coupon would not cover the job and that I would need to pay an additional amount of money to have this completed. This came out to an additional 700 feet that needed to be done. I was quoted a price for $4500 and that I can't afford this. I've had contractors come in and say they would do it for roughly around $2,000.

Job started out well and initial work was beautiful, then became spotty. The worst was when, rather than dropping some light fixtures to plaster the ceiling under them they plastered around and on the fixtures, plastering them into the ceiling. These were nice Quoizel fixtures. I dropped the fixtures and cleaned them up (they will never be the same, though) and cleaned up around them and asked Kieran to plaster underneath the fixtures and they did. After the job was done, the painter I hired to paint the new plaster pointed out several flaws in the plastering that he would need to go over again to get the painting job right (and the painter - a friend - didn't charge me for going over the plaster again, so he had no financial motive to find fault with the plastering). I called Kieran and asked him to come back and just go over these spots one more time and he would not even discuss it, told me the job was done and that was it. He got pretty nasty about it. Since this work was done, a corner crack in the plaster that Kieran "fixed" has opened up again. Overall I would still give a "C" average for quality; some of the work was A+ and other work was D or F. Some of the work was beautiful and some of it was absurdly bad, e.g. the light fixtures.

I contacted them and they responded immediately. The service was good and they did what they said they would for the price.

He came and did an estimate/proposal for the work. Started on time, made a mold of the medallion, cast it, brought the medallion back and stored it in my basement. Then they repaired a hole in the celinng. then they screwed the remaining plaster to the laths/beams. Then they put a covering over the plaster and did a final plaster finish. There was a corner of the room were the wall was severely cracked, and he repaired that also. They worked rapidly and with a high degree of professionalism. Very "old-school" plasterer--hard to find these days.
