    Excellent work carried out

    Posted 1 week ago

    David and Tracy did the most amazing job decorating our hall and stairs. We were recommended by friends and neighbours. They were efficient professional respectful and communicative throughout the process I would have no hesitation recommending them Nothing was too much trouble and they left every evening with everything left clean and tidy.

    Grade 2 listed - top to bottom - Transformation Project

    Posted 12 September

    Excellent. David and his partner Tracey were responsible for the internal and external painting and decorating of our large Grade 2 listed top to bottom transformation. Their painting and decorating had to run concurrent to the required building works. This made their job harder than normal but they took it all in their stride, were very flexible and always looked to see how they could work round things. Communication was excellent and they were a pleasure to have on site. The external works is now materially complete and this is that review. A review on internals to follow once complete.

    Posted 13 May

    David takes alot of pride and care in his work and it shows, I didn't feel like it was just a tick box get money job, he went the extra mile and showed consideration of what I wanted. David did a great job and I would definitely recommend him and would use him for future jobs.

    Lack of judgement

    Posted 12 May

    Used wrong paste for wallpaper. Came off the wall and can't be rectified according to wallpaper manufacture messages to me. Has got to be stripped off. 3 rolls £144+ per roll.

    I'm sorry you feel that way, Mrs Hazeltine. You forgot to mention the wallpaper only cost you £187 from eBay. Also that i reimbursed you the wallpaper cost plus the labour cost of which I was not going to charge, so in total, I refunded £280.
