    Happy customer

    Posted 14 April

    I contacted Gary after a recommendation. He has just finished decorating my bedroom and I’m delighted with the work carried out. I needed advice on what to do and he was very helpful. He was professional, polite, reliable and respectful. I would not hesitate to use him again.

    Posted 09 April

    Gary is an honest and trustworthy tradesman who does what he says he will do, communicates clearly and promptly and works hard to a very high standard. Friendly and easy to have working here and felt able to trust him to leave him working in the house alone. Very highly recommended.

    Living room painting; good preparation, nice finish, easy to deal with

    Posted 31 March

    Reached out to a few decorators for quotes before going ahead with Gary. Was willing to find a way to fit the work into his schedule and ended up completing ahead of the projected timeframe. Gave me advice on what to do (and not do!) with the room, which paints to look at and avoid and delivered the work in line with his initial quote. Put effort in on his preparation, delivered a nice finish and took feedback onboard when it was given. Also an easy person to have a chat with, thanks Gary
