Widcombe is a village-style suburb south of the river — it's actually the first suburb south of Bath Spa station, with the station itself forming a kind of boundary. The housing mixes Georgian cottages along Claverton Street with Victorian villas and modern canal-side apartments. Centrally-located but quiet, the area is popular with both families and commuters — we regularly render whole terraces here. The proximity to the Kennet & Avon Canal means some properties have moisture considerations that we address with breathable render systems.

What Bath homeowners say
Verified reviews from recent work across Bristol and Bath.
★★★★★
Would recommend K D Plastering. When I made my initial call, I left a message and Kyran returned the call by the end of the day to arrange a house visit/quote which was efficiently done within 2 days. Really happy with the plastering that was done over the artex roof and walls. We also had a bit of outdoor rendering done to a great standard.
★★★★★
Re plastered a bedroom that had suffered damage after the flat roof had leaked, took a little longer than planned due to problems with the ceiling but finished job was excellent. Job was done quickly and efficiently, would recommend.
★★★★★
Kyran and his team were brilliant. They did the job after we were let down by someone else at the last minute. Worked hard, lovely company to have in the home. Really pleased with the result.
