    Painting soffits and fascias

    Posted 10 August

    Ian responded very promptly to my request for a quote and gave a detailed description of the work he would do. The work was started on the agreed date and carried out to a high standard with attention to detail and the areas were always left very tidy at the end of the day. Ian kept me informed about how the work was progressing and was very willing to answer any questions I had. I am very pleased with the end result.

    Ian Tomsett for a Quality Job

    Posted 13 July

    Ian quoted to paint my refurbished conservatory which had been installed with a 'livin' roof and mainly comprised newly plastered surface. On acceptance of his reasonably priced quote we arranged a start date, Ian kept to the exact start date he also finished exactly when he said he would despite the recent heat wave. Ian is polite at all times and mindful of all around him including our two inquisitive dogs. Ian added a lot of value to my specification by suggesting improvements to method and materials to achieve a first class job on time on budget.

    Painting living room and kitchen

    Posted 27 March

    Ian was reliable, honest, and did great work! I wouldn’t have been able to do it myself and I really trusted him to provide good quality service and he delivered. I’d recommend.

    Years of experience is reflected in his work

    Posted 12 February

    Two weeks ago i had my bathroom painted. I have to say, i have used Ian for any decorating jobs around my home for many years. He is punctual, tidy, good value and has always done a brilliant job. He clearly takes pride in his work, which reflects on the professional workmanship.
