    We were very pleased with the work done by Craig. He was polite, friendly, and consistently professional throughout the job. He put in long hours, worked hard, and maintained a clean and tidy workspace. The quality of the painting was excellent, and we would confidently recommend him to others looking for a reliable and detail-oriented painter.

    Paint newly plastered walls and woodwork in kitchen and extension

    Posted 03 October

    We required full decoration of a new extension for which the builder’s timelines kept slipping but Craig was accommodating of the delays and able to work with us flexibly on suitable dates. At the time of our job Craig was going through some difficult personal issues but he always made sure our deadlines were met and worked long days where necessary to get the work finished on time.

    Craig is a reliable and very professional painter and decorator. His communication and attention to detail is excellent. He is punctual, respectful and went the extra mile to ensure that the job was completed on time. I am extremely satisfied with the work. I have no hesitation in recommending him and will definitely be using him for work again.
