Gary and Lewis carried out repairs, including major patching to walls and ceiling, the installation of insulation to external walls and new lime plaster under an area of thatched roof. The room was plastered in fine lime and completed to a very high quality.
As well as completing the quoted work within the time agreed and to the original estimate, they also gave helpful advice concerning adjacent damp problems, included numerous extras without charge and were extremely clean and tidy throughout the project.
My wife and I were extremely pleased with the finished result and will not hesitate to employ these two again. Similarly, we would not hesitate to recommend them to others, as long as we have first call on their busy schedule.

Really delighted with the quality of work carried out by Gary. The bathroom had numerous problems but he was able to talk us through the options and develop solutions for them. Great attention to detail and a very clean worker. We would thoroughly recommend him.
I have just had some plastering by Gary Marcks of GM Plastering. I am very happy with the high standard of work carried out. He has a vast experience in all types of plastering and rendering. At first Gary came round and gave me an estimate which he kept to. Halfway through I asked him to do a few extra jobs and he was very happy to do so. For the time he was in my home him and his assistant were very friendly and carried out the work to a very high standard. I am very pleased with the work and do not hesitate in recommending him to anybody requiring a plasterer.
Gary Marks Plastering had undertaken quite a large project within our timber framed cottage. The work included was plaster boarding, general plastering and lime rendering all in keeping of an old 1700’s cottage. Gary was very helpful giving advice on the work needed to be done. He was very polite and punctual from the start to the finish of the job. He and his labourer were very thorough, clean and tidy, polite and trust worthy. Gary was working on our project for two weeks with very little disruption to our family home. Gary’s work was very good and for which I would highly recommend. I will certainly be using his services in the future.
Gary came recommended to us, after we were badly let down by another plasterer, although we had to wait a while for him, it was well worth the wait. His plastering and rendering is first class. We found him to be very punctual and friendly. Our job was completed on time and on budget. We will continue to use him for further work and would recommend him.
My wife and I were so impressed with the work that Gary Marcks completed on our 220 year old cottage. He completed rendering and plastering work to the highest levels of quality, all competitively priced and completed in a very short space of time. The finish quality of the plastering was superb and in keeping with the design finish of the house. I would recommend Gary’s services to anyone, instantly! And we will certainly call on him again in the future. Massive thank you!
Not only is Gary a highly skilled plasterer, he is also a talented craftsman with an artistic eye. The combination of all these, along with his attention to detail, patience and care combine together into a superb product and excellent service.
Gary and his apprentice, Julian, completed a 6-week project to re-plaster my clay lump house in the traditional Norfolk manner. They transformed a building that had been badly treated through the use of unsuitable renders into a beautiful, light building using materials that will allow it to breathe as it was meant to.
Both Gary and Julian were a pleasure to have working for us and were always considerate. I recommend them without reservation and intend fully to ask them back to do more projects.
We didn’t know what kind of render we wanted and Gary was happy to assist us in exploring various options right from the start. We eventually decided on a Lime render & cork insulation and Gary (and Julian) worked professionally to transform the exterior of our house sometimes against the elements. We appreciated Gary’s attention to detail and keeping us informed and involved along the way. The end result reflects that care and attention and we would recommend GM Plastering to anyone.
Gary has recently finished re-rendering our entire house with K-rend. From the moment we first contacted Gary we were very impressed with his professionalism, whenever he said he was going to do something he did it.
Gary and his colleague Julian were always extremely considerate of our needs having 2 small children. They kept noise and mess to a minimum and never left here without cleaning up at the end of every day.
They worked extremely hard to complete the job within the timescale given. We would have no hesitation in recommending Gary and would certainly use him again in the future.
Gary was commissioned to render and plaster our new build eco house in Stonham. ‘Hemcrete’, a mixture of hemp and lime, is applied to a timber frame on which shuttering of Celenit wood-wool board is fixed.
The whole building is designed to breathe naturally and consequently no impermeable materials, such as gypsum plaster, can be used in the construction or decoration. We opted to use Warmcote and Limecote from Best of Lime Ltd.
Although Limecote and Warmcote have technological advances over common non-hydraulic limes, only the most skilled of tradesmen could have successfully plastered to this high standard.
Thanks for a truly outstanding job by you both. The previous render was shoddy in my opinion but with your expertise you have totally transformed the house.
Warmcote and Limecote applied over Savolit board has eliminated draughts, insulated, reduced noise and looks stunning.
Arriving on time, working hard, consulting whenever a change in plan was required, keeping us updated on progress and making everything tidy are the hallmarks of a quality and highly sought after tradesman. Highly recommend to anyone who is prepared to wait for the best.
