Craig done a very thorough professional job. Due to weather it was quite difficult to fit in at times but job was finished to a high finish. Quote compared to other quotes was much more reasonable. Cleaned up afterwards and was kept informed throughout the work as to when he would next be round to carry on. Would recommend Craig 100%.Verified reviewerJob location: GU1110 Top class service

It was a pleasure to deal with Craig. His work was of top quality with great attention to detail. He was informative, reliable and communicative throughout and with reaonable charges. I have already asked him to quote for further work.Verified reviewerJob location: GU610 Full repainting of 4 bedroom house

Our experience with Craig was excellent. He was punctual, explained exactly what he was doing and was always considerate with how he was working whilst we were in the house. He left the house tidy during the job which meant that it caused very little interruption to us. Would highly recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: KT189.33 Paining walls and staircase

Craig was brilliant from our very first interaction to the end of the job. Not only did he do a great job of all of the painting, he was so kind and patient through a number of speed bumps along the way and always offered helpful advice. There was a huge amount of work put into the prep of the walls and woodwork which has made such a difference to our home. He was always receptive to our requests for things to be done a certain way and always seemed as though his priority was our happiness with the job. Couldn’t recommend Craig more, and we already have to others.Verified reviewerJob location: GU4
