    Exceptional decorator and a true professional

    Posted 2 days ago

    I met James 7 years ago, and he’s been my go-to decorator ever since. His work is brilliant. Beyond decorating, he repaired severely damaged walls, cupboards, and a damaged bathtub panel, leaving them in like-new condition. James is efficient with unmatched attention to detail. What sets him apart is his knowledge; he always advises on the best materials, like hard-wearing paints to easily clean mess off walls in the kitchen or my kid's room. He is a delight to deal with and a total professional. I cannot recommend him highly enough!"

    Making good and repainting house facade

    Posted 29 July 2025

    James did a wonderful job making good and repainting my home’s front facade. He works to a very high standard and ensured that areas which needed to be kept paint free were well protected. He had to do a lot of filling to stabilise the surface and the end result is fantastic. He works in a clean & tidy manner. I really appreciated James’s flexibility as we had bad weather which impacted when the job could start and James was able to rearrange his schedule to account for this. Overall, I’m hugely impressed and will be calling on James for all my future decorating needs.
