    Painting of two bedroom flat

    Posted 23 April

    Jimmy and his son, Alfie did a great job painting my two bedroom flat throughout. I left them the keys to the empty flat and they proved to be honest and trustworthy. They were knowledgeable and courteous, providing good advice and were very professional in their work. I am pleased to give them my recommendation.

    Painting living room and kitchen diner

    Posted 09 April

    From start to finish, really prompt and clear communication with James. Finished job to a high standard within the time he anticipated. Tidied up really well at the end. A very positive experience. James was friendly, clearly very knowledgeable and a skilled decorator who made the whole process very straightforward for us.

    Decorate a one bedroom rented flat, in between tenants.

    Posted 26 March

    James and his team understood the importance of timing and volunteered to work at the weekend in order to have the flat decorated as quickly as possible, so we could rent it out promptly. The work was completed in a timely manner to a high standard. Thank you James and team.

    Great value, great service

    Posted 20 November 2025

    James and his team did a wonderful job painting my one bed flat. They got it done super quick, as I had a deadline, but didn't drop their standards. All looks great, and they communicated well throughout, so I always knew what was going on. Reasonably priced too. Thanks guys, I will defo use you again.
