BWalsh

BWalsh is a one-man plastering and handyman business in Braintree, run by Bertie Walsh, who reviewers consistently just call Bertie. The reviews that define this record are about plaster and ceiling work — smooth walls and ceilings after a leak, a garage ceiling redone after a previous contractor botched it, a new plaster ceiling installed alongside cabinet work and an over-the-stove microwave. The consistent thread across nearly twenty reviews, most from 2014 through 2019, is responsiveness and honesty about pricing: reviewers describe callbacks the same day, quotes given on the spot, and jobs completed close to the estimate. One reviewer described Bertie pointing out on a routine gate-repair visit that some fence pickets needed replacing too, then coming back two days later to fix both. Another said he took on some unplanned masonry work while repairing a water-damaged wall and still kept the cost reasonable. Multiple reviews specifically mention a clean job site left behind. There's no negative account on file. Worth knowing: the written reviews are heavily weighted toward 2014-2019, with just one, from April 2025, in the years since — it's worth confirming Bertie is still taking on plastering and handyman jobs before counting on this history. For plaster and ceiling repair, small fence or door fixes, or general handyman work, the older reviews describe a careful, fair-priced, communicative contractor — just double-check current availability given how dated most of this history is.
