    Internal painting

    Posted 2 days ago

    Derek responded to my enquiry promptly and arranged an appointment to survey for a quote. We were pressed for time but he managed to fit us in, paint the whole house in record time to our satisfaction. Highly recommended.

    So quick!

    Derek painted our bedroom in 6 hours. He even came the day before to patch up when we made a big hole by mistake - on a Sunday as well! He’s efficient, punctual, and does a quality job. Will definitely use again.

    Seemingly can turn his hand to any job

    Posted 12 December 2025

    Derek initially came to do some painting, he made an excellent job. Since then he has also insulated and part boarded a loft. Installed a new loft ladder. He has repaired some guttering at the back of my garage. He is coming back in January to do some fencing and replace some border stones. He turns up when he says he will and always lets me know if there will be an unavoidable delay. I am busy making a list of all the other jobs that I need doing. It is difficult to get people like this. You might have to wait to get work done but he is worth the wait.

    Various decorating and handyman jobs after moving into a new house

    Posted 30 October 2025

    Derek has been simply amazing and has helped us so much with getting our house together after moving in. He can turn his hand to just about anything and the results have been fantastic. I can’t recommend him highly enough. If you are looking for a decorator and/or handyman with a ‘can do’ attitude, who is polite and trustworthy and above all great at what he does look no further than Derek.
