    Painting Hall, Stairs &Landing

    Posted 16 December 2024

    Could not be happier with the work Charlie had carried out for us. He replied within minutes to our initial enquiry, provided a quote very promptly and booked in the work within the timeframe we were hoping for. His work and work ethic is extremely professional (and he is also a nice guy to have around!) Charlie uses a dust free sanding machine that leaves surfaces looking like new prior to painting and leaves no mess whatsoever so when he leaves the job each evening you would not know he has been there! Would not hesitate to recommend and will hopefully be using again.

    The Best Painter Around

    Posted 28 June 2024

    Charlie came to do our 2 bed flat, including painting walls, skirting boards, and windowsill's in May. He was professional from start to finish, did the job within the promised timeframe, was the tidiest tradesman we’ve ever encountered. He was always on time, super friendly and happy to help with all our quirky requests. THE BEST PAINTER hands down, we’re over the moon with everything he did! Thank you so much ☺️

    Repainting of lounge and spare room

    Posted 26 February 2024

    We are always apprehensive using new people but having used Charlie, we cannot praise him enough. His work is great and he provided a great service. From making the appointment to look at the work, providing the quote and doing the work, Charlie was reliable, tidy, respectful of our home, hard working and competitively priced. We are really pleased with the work he has done and will definitely use him again.

A bit about me.


Hi, my name is Charlie. I started my career in Painting & Decorating in 2009 as a painter’s apprentice at age 17. As an apprentice I was lucky enough to spend time working with painters who were at the top of the industry and I gained invaluable knowledge and skills learning from them. I quickly picked up a passion for the trade and have worked hard since perfecting the skills required to work at the top level of the trade. In that time, I worked with various painters specializing from Domestic work, Commercial work, Hand painted kitchens, timber repair specialists, I even ran a team of painters for a building company for 3 years in Sydney Australia.

Over my career I have gained knowledge and experience in all aspects of Painting & Decorating and have been working for myself as a sole trader since January 2019.

I have a great relationship with my customer base and really enjoy the personal aspect of working as a sole trader as much as I enjoy putting the finishing touches to a job well done.

I genuinely love my job and have a real passion for the trade. I take personal pride in every job I do and I’m happy to put my name to all the work I’ve done.



DUSTLESS SANDING


Having started over a decade ago working with a traditional painter who would paint whole ceilings with a six-inch brush, I’ve seen the industry change a lot with new techniques and technologies. One of the biggest break throughs in decorating in the last ten years is the introduction of dustless sanding systems. Eager to stay at the cutting edge of the trade I invested in a full dustless sanding system and it really has changed the game.

It offers perfect preparation with 95% less dust than traditional hand sanding.



Services


I cover all aspects of decorating, from small rooms to full house renovations. Sash window painting and timber repairs to fine paper hanging. Colour and design advice and more.


I’d love to be a part of your next project and I hope to hear from you soon.
