This is not the the first time we have used C L Bush Decorating and certainly will not be the last. I will be honest to say that we had some pretty shoddy work done to our staircase but after Cliff worked his magic you would never know. The level of finish is outstanding and would highly recommend Cliff to anyone needing a quality painter and decorator.Verified reviewerJob location: SS710 Hugh quality work

We couldn’t be happier with the work carried out by Cliff. He is very informative, honest and the quality of his work is exceptional. It’s clear he takes real pride in what he does and this shows in the finish and attention to detail. He also took the time to give his opinion and guide us through the job, explaining options clearly and helping us make the right decisions. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a quality finish.Verified reviewerJob location: CO5Response from C L Bush Decorating
