Frenchay is one of the most upmarket suburbs in BS16 — a leafy village suburb with large detached houses on generous plots, the Frome Valley running through, and the Bristol-Bath cycle path on the doorstep. The housing is dominated by 1950s-60s executive detached (often 1,500-2,500 sq ft), some older period detached, and the modern new-build activity as the old Frenchay Hospital site has been redeveloped. We work on several Frenchay properties each year — typically large detached homes needing full re-rendering or EWI.

What Bristol homeowners say
Verified reviews from recent work across Bristol and Bath.
★★★★★
We got in touch on Saturday as we urgently needed plastering finished in our bathroom. We had a very quick response and Kyran was around at 8am on Sunday to get it done. He finished in just a few hours and the standard seems very good. He tidied up after himself too! We were pleased with the price considering the last minute nature of the work.
★★★★★
We used KD plastering at short notice - they turned up on time - very clean and a smooth finish! Highly recommend on using this company. Thanks Kerian and team we will using you again soon
★★★★★
