    Interior Hallway and Bedroom decorating

    Posted 29 April

    We have used David’s services a couple of times now - one to paint our hallway upstairs and down, and our ceilings. He is meticulous, neat and tidy, he also goes the extra effort to make sure surfaces are well prepared (something I would never bother myself) but it actually makes all the difference to the finish. It feels like he really takes care in what he does which is nice. Lastly he is just a lovely person to work with and also communicates quickly and clearly. My partner and I highly recommend and will be using his services again very soon!

    Above and Beyond Service – Exceptional Painter & Decorator

    Posted 29 April

    Akin is an exceptional painter/decorator & I highly recommend him. He painted a newly plastered room/ceiling & 2 others rooms with poor existing paintwork. He goes above & beyond; rather than masking flaws, he meticulously sanded surfaces & repaired blown plaster. The final paint finish is excellent & absolutely flawless. He’s a true perfectionist with a superb eye for detail. Akin worked tirelessly, kept the site spotless & hit our tight deadline. Highly skilled, reliable, punctual & a total pleasure to deal with. We won't hesitate to use him again. Akin has truly transformed our home!

    Outstanding Professional

    Posted 29 April

    "Outstanding professional – 10/10 across the boardI’ve used many painters and decorators over the past 27 years, but David is easily the best I have ever hired. His attention to detail is on another level—I genuinely didn’t know it was possible to get lines this straight!David is clearly an expert; he recommended specific paints for different surfaces that made a massive difference to the final result. He even managed to solve a persistent damp wall issue that several other decorators had struggled with in the past.His tidiness was 10/10 throughout; he left the house spotless every single day.
