How Did I Start?

My journey in plastering began in 1993 when I enrolled and attended a two year City & Guilds course in plastering at Nescot College in Surrey. There, I developed a solid foundation and understanding in plastering, and where I discovered my passion for fibrous plastering.

Eager to further my skills, I continued my education at Vauxhall College, School of Building, in the Borough of Wandsworth, London. During this time, I specialised in fibrous plastering, experimenting with materials, creating plaster moulds, reading and working from technical drawings, and reproducing and replicating plaster products.

Whilst studying, I also gained practical experience working part-time on building sites, for local property developers and Manley Builders. It was during this period that I launched my own business, St James Plastering Services.

Over the past 30 years, I have had the privilege of building and managing a successful plastering business, completing countless projects across London and beyond. I have worked on some of the most beautiful properties, helping preserve and restore their architectural character.

Equally important to me has been having the opportunity to pass on the knowledge of this craft to young and aspiring plasterers, by providing work experience, form time to time.

Today, I specialise in Decorative Plaster Repair & Restoration Work, delivering high-quality services to the public; results that combine craftsmanship, attention to detail, and a deep respect for customer service. With over three decades of experience, I am confident in my ability to meet and exceed your expectations.
