The plastering apprenticeship
David started his indentured plastering apprenticeship at Thomas Winstanley's in Rainford and trained at Riversdale College.
About David
Time in the trade. Pride in the finish.
David has worked in plastering and construction since beginning his apprenticeship in September 1987, gaining experience of homes, schools, hospitals, shops and demanding specialist projects.
His background
Plasterer by trade. Builder by experience.
David trained in plastering with Thomas Winstanley in Rainford and at Riversdale College. His early work covered a broad range of buildings, including domestic properties, offices, schools, hospitals and shops.
As his career developed, he took on wider building responsibilities including groundwork, brickwork and carpentry, and later supervised multi-trade building projects.
Those years give him the breadth of knowledge to understand not just how to plaster a wall, but the building work around it.
The story so far
Experience built on site.
Broader responsibilities
Alongside plastering, he gained hands-on experience in groundwork, brickwork and carpentry, moving into foreman and site-supervision roles across different building trades.
Working directly with clients
David developed his own business and built a reputation around repeat customers, recommendations and understanding the practical requirements of each job.
Local plastering & property maintenance
Operating as a sole trader in Southport, David offers the benefit of that experience on plastering repairs, smaller building jobs, decorating and property maintenance.
