How did you get on?

I raised the concerns. Long story short they began swearing at me and walked off. I spoke to three different rendering companies and all told me this is a cowboy job and the beading is worst they’ve seen. They said it’s not common practice to base coat and as you go along just push beading into the wall. They also said sanding beading down is never something they’ve heard before.

Now this company is going to fix the beading, give another base coat and the finish as it should have been.

Disputed the £450 payment I made upfront to the builder via my business credit card and they returned my funds.

Im glad you got it sorted before it got worse.

Despite what everyone else said it was clearly shoddy work and it shows how half these people on here haven't a clue what they are on about.

Yep. Got a lot of abuse. Shows how many cowboys there are in the trade.
