    Highly recommended!

    Posted 19 November 2025

    Graham is a brilliant decorator, we have had him back many times to do different rooms and also the exterior window frames. His preparation is very thorough and the finish is always excellent. We also set him a challenge with some extra-wide wallpaper on the stairs in our hallway but he did a great job! He's busy a lot of the time unsurprisingly, but well worth the wait!

    Excellent painter and decorator

    Posted 19 October 2025

    Graham has just redecorated our lounge and orangery. He was recommended to us by friends and we are so pleased with his work. Every aspect of the work was carried out to a very high standard. We would highly recommend him for any painting and decorating work.

    Great job, from quote to completion

    Posted 28 September 2025

    I own a two bedroom flat in Guildford. I requested a quote from Graham for a full redecoration. All rooms, walls, ceilings, coving, skirtings and architraves, two coats for everything. Graham turned up on time to assess the job and followed up with a detailed quote. This showed that he'd captured everything we'd discussed and everything was itemised so I could have reduced my spend if I'd opted out of something. The work was done professionally and with care and within the agreed timeframe. I'd certainly use Graham again in the future. Very happy with the quality of the work.

    Decorating two bedrooms

    Posted 26 June 2025

    Work carried out to the highest of standards, by Graham who has taken care of all our painting and decorating requirements over the past twenty years years. During all of this time the quality of his work has never failed to provide us with complete satisfaction and from booking to completion, everything always runs smoothly and means we can relax and leave him to sort everything out and the result will be as we would wish! For any future requirements in this field we will look no further than Graham and be assured of total satisfaction
