Can anyone recommend a specific type of builder? see below

We are looking for an excellent trustworthy builder who can help our unique situation. We need to replaster our cellar and close it off with a hatch at the top of the stairs and basically seal every millimetre of adjoining wall to the neighbouring property to stop the really potent cigarette smoke coming through from next door and up through the floorboards into our house. We have someone ready to re-floor the whole of the downstairs once this is done. The builders we used to renovate the house previously who we really trust can't fit us in until next year now but we need this doing now as we are a young family.


Has anyone else had this done?!


Any recommendations greatly welcome


Thank you

I had this problem in a previous house. The smoke came through the floorboards in under stairs cupboard through the door into the kitchen. No cellar. The kitchen was tiled, and so was downstairs hallway so it only came up through cupboard floorboards. I wish you luck but cannot recommend anyone, but there does seem to be quite a few recommended plasters on here. Have a search.


Edited to say I saw Andrew@Top Notch Plasterers recommended by a few people a few days ago.

    • I agree that selling items online can be a bit of a faff but the ebay app makes  it easier these days to put photos on, set a postage rate, descriptions, etc. I’ve been buying and selling on eBay for quite a while now and it can be hit and miss with the selling and it does take a bit of time, buying the packaging, taking it to the post office (which I use to send everything I sell) but it can be a way to make a bit of spare cash.  I sell bits on eBay for myself and for a charity I support. I’ve been selling bits on this forum for my charity but this is a bit hit and miss as well.   If the OP pms me maybe I might be able to help and sell her clothes for her (and me) 😀        
    • 80pc of the value comes from 20pc of the inventory. I'd suggest running through it and putting into 3 heaps: A - quality branded. Depending on how much there is in this category, you might then be able to find someone for a 'split the profits' offer.  C - un-sellable by charity (marked, damaged). To a "clothes by the KG" service. B - everything else. Donate to charity. 
    • I used to live on Ladlands Estate/Dawsons Heights and when I was older my mum and Nan told me that a man fell or jumped from a height and died. They believe he was running away from drug dealers &/or police. I can't find any articles online about this story, so was just wondering if anyone else could remember anything? I lived there from 1995-2001/02 so would've been around those years.
