    Bedroom Painting

    Posted 15 January

    Liam did a superb job decorating the master bedroom, original walls were in poor condition with lots of defects in the plaster. He worked late/extra days, completing the job to an exceptional standard at no extra cost to the job quote. Clean and efficient, highly recommended!!!
