About Us
About AJ Plast
AJ Plast is a plastering and rendering business based right here in Romford. We started this company because too many homeowners were getting let down by "cheap" plasterers — missed appointments, rushed finishes, and jobs that looked fine on day one but cracked or discoloured within a year. We wanted to build something different: a local plastering company people could genuinely trust with their home, from the first phone call through to the final coat drying.
Every job, from a small ceiling repair to a full newbuild extension, gets the same level of attention. We turn up when we say we will, we protect your floors and furniture before we start, and we don't consider a job finished until the surface is right — not just "good enough to pass in bad light." A lot of plastering problems only become obvious once the room is painted and the light hits the wall differently through the day — so we hold ourselves to a standard that still looks right months later, not just on the day we leave.
Our Approach
We believe good plastering isn't just about a smooth wall — it's about the whole experience around it: clear communication before the job starts, fair and transparent pricing, and a finish that still looks good years down the line.
That's the standard we hold ourselves to on every job across Romford, Havering, Barking & Dagenham, and the wider area we cover.
Too many homeowners have a story about a plasterer who didn't show up, rushed the job, or left a finish that needed redoing within months.
We're building AJ Plast's reputation the opposite way — one job at a time, with word of mouth and repeat customers as the real proof. A large proportion of our work now comes from people who've used us before, or who were recommended by someone who has — and that matters more to us than any amount of advertising.
What We're Skilled In
- Full plaster skimming and re-skimming on both walls and ceilings.
- Exterior rendering, including sand and cement render, modern render systems, and professional render repairs.
- Plasterboard dot-and-dab boarding with expert jointing for a smooth finish.
- Ceiling plastering, crack repairs, and Artex removal to create clean, modern ceilings.
- Bespoke coving, plaster arches, alcove shelving, and custom media wall surrounds.
- Complete shell-to-finish plastering for extensions, loft conversions, and new build properties.
You can see examples of all of the above in our gallery—real projects, real photographs, and no stock images pulled from the internet.
Fully Insured, Fully Reliable
AJ Plast is fully insured, so you can have complete peace of mind having us working in your home.
Whether it's a first-time customer in Havering or a returning client who's had multiple rooms done over the years, the same standard applies to every visit — the same care with dust sheets, the same attention to finishing corners properly, the same honesty if we spot an issue you weren't aware of, like hidden damp behind old plaster.
We're proud of the reputation we're building across Romford and the surrounding areas — read what recent customers have said on our reviews page.
Working With Builders and Homeowners
We work just as comfortably plastering directly for homeowners managing their own renovation as we do working alongside builders on larger extension or new-build projects, fitting reliably into a build schedule when needed.
Builders in particular value plasterers who show up on the day agreed and don't hold up the rest of the trades queued up behind them — it's something we take seriously because we know how one delay can ripple through an entire project.

What makes AJ Plast different from other local plasterers?
Reliability and honesty, more than anything. We tell customers when a job doesn't need the most expensive option, we turn up when agreed, and we stand behind the finish we leave.
Do you take on jobs referred by builders or architects?
Yes, we regularly work as part of a wider build team and are happy to liaise directly with builders or project managers on larger jobs.
