Ranked 10 of 11 in Plasterers in Telford

Dissolved

Trading as McDonald Plastering Ltd · Newport · Service area: Telford

Our verdict

Our judgement: this may suit a Newport homeowner comfortable booking a reviewed sole trader by phone, given the 5.0 record across 14 reviews [1]. We rate the review sheet as the strength and the dissolved company record as the limitation. Before you book, ask who you are contracting with now, what insurance is in place and get the quote in writing.

Industry qualifications

Can't be sourced. We looked at the issuing registers, the business's own website and platforms such as Checkatrade and Which? Trusted Traders and found no scheme membership or registration to record.

Strengths

  • You get a clean sheet on reviews: 5.0 from 14 Google reviews, seen 3 September 2026 [1].

  • The name and the Newport base agree across the Places listing and the Companies House record for McDonald Plastering Ltd [1][2].

Limitations

  • The matching limited company was dissolved in July 2023, so the current trading form is undocumented and C4 sits in insufficient evidence [2].

  • There is no website, no pricing and no insurance detail published, so contact runs through the Places listing phone number alone [1].
