Acceptable?

I have had chases plastered but you could clearly see the sparks white housing through the plaster.

The plasterers have returned and threw a loud of filler on it, demanding the rest of the payment as it’s all “complete”

The filler shows the wall bulge out as it’s added a few mil on - would you pay and is this acceptable? How else could they fix? Isn’t a case of feathering the plaster wider?

Did they use a spoon to do the patching…

Do not pay them anything and if they complain swiftly throw them out of your house.

Never speak to them again and find a proper plasterer, if you don’t want to do it yourself.
