Having looked at many different plastering courses on-line I decided to book with C S Plastering School without doubt the best decision I could have made, excellent course content provided by the tutor who is the best teacher I could have asked for, happy to answer any questions regardless of how daft it may have been. Learnt many techniques and built up my confidence to a point where I can go and plaster my own home, would recommend to anyone.
