About The Author

Philip A. Gaches

Philip A. Gaches’ interest in plastering started at a very young age. His father became a plasterer in 1947, and Philip would spend hours watching him work. His fascination with his father’s mastery of the art led to him joining the family plastering business at the age of 16. In the years since, he has carried out projects all over the world and worked on some of the finest buildings in Britain. His work is recognised widely as setting an industry standard for authenticity and quality.
