    Exterior painting and repairs. Removal of sink and pipework.

    Posted 11 September

    Couldn't be happier! Joe turned up on time to quote and to start the job. Completely cleaned up, there was nothing for me to tidy up after he left. Joe repaired and painted 3 window ledges at 1st floor level, and 2 metal downpipes. He also removed a sink and made good the walls. He used high quality paints for multiple coats and the finish is brilliant. He was really transparent with his quote and explained exactly what he would be doing. He offered advice regarding the removal of the sink and I'm glad I listened as my idea would not have worked. Definitely reccomend Joe for any work .

    Painting a bedroom

    Posted 12 August

    Joe is very friendly and professional. We cannot fault his workmanship. He throughly prepared all surfaces before painting and has done an excellent job.

    Excellent kitchen and conservatory makeover

    Posted 06 August

    I can thoroughly recommend Joe. He is very hard working, professional, respectful and most importantly very skilled in all aspects of decorating and repairing cracked plaster. A rather shabby and damaged wood block worktop now looks as good as new!

My name is Joe I’ve been in the building industry for around 30 years.


Most of the skills I have I’ve learnt from working for general builders and companies.


I’ve worked for in my career I’ve been self-employed for the last 5 years in the domestic sector and also commercial.


My main source of work is painting and decorating by trade however because of my background I’m also qualified electrician.


I undertake remedial plumbing and carpentry work amongst a lot of other things.


Fencing and garden gate installations are another strong skill I possess as well as any exterior type of maintenance, but in general there not too many things that I wouldn’t say I could not do.


I am very reliable with good people skills.


I always contact the clients when necessary and I’m clear on pricing through emailed quotes.


I don’t leave the client wondering about costs I’m very transparent and if there is anything other than what has been asked, I always discuss with the client before proceeding.
