About Tommy Fitt — Fitt Plastering, Basildon, Essex
Hi, I'm Tommy Fitt. I've been working as a professional plasterer across Basildon and the wider Essex area for years. I started Fitt Plastering because I saw a real need for a reliable, honest tradesperson who turns up when they say they will, charges a fair price, and leaves a perfect finish.
When you hire a plasterer, you're inviting someone into your home. That's a big deal. I treat every single property with the utmost respect. That means putting down proper protection for your floors, keeping dust to a minimum, and leaving the room clean and tidy when the job is done. I take personal pride in every wall and ceiling I skim.
The Fitt Plastering Difference
One of the biggest complaints I hear from customers about other firms is that they quote for a job, and then send a completely different sub-contractor to do the work. With Fitt Plastering, that never happens. Every job is carried out personally by me. When you book Fitt Plastering, Tommy turns up. You get my experience, my standards, and my guarantee on every single wall.
Fully Insured & Qualified
Peace of mind is important. I am fully covered by comprehensive public liability insurance, meaning your home is protected while I work. Whether I'm skimming a small bedroom in Billericay or re-plastering a whole house in Brentwood, the standard of work and professionalism remains exactly the same.
A Day in the Life
A typical day for me starts early, loading the van with fresh bags of multi-finish before heading out across Essex. I might spend the morning skimming over an old artex ceiling in a 1970s semi in Wickford, and the afternoon repairing water-damaged plaster in a Victorian terrace in Chelmsford. No two days are the same, but the goal is always identical: leaving a flawless, glass-smooth surface ready for the decorators.
Why Local Matters
Being based right here in Basildon means I can respond quickly to enquiries across the local area. I don't charge inflated travel costs because I'm genuinely local. I know the different types of housing stock across our local towns — from the new builds in Rayleigh to the older estates in Pitsea and Laindon — and I know exactly how to tackle the plastering challenges each one presents.
