    10/10 Service

    Posted 25 May

    John was friendly, reliable, and competitively priced. John decorated the majority of our 3 bedroom house to an excellent standard and within the timeframe and budget originally quoted. John left our home looking lovely and fresh. Nothing was too much trouble, including a couple of colours changes on our behalf. We would not hesitate to recommend John’s services to friends and family.

    Bedroom Painting

    Posted 08 March

    John is an incredibly thorough painter / decorator. He painted our main bedroom including ceiling, walls, radiators and skirting boards. He also touched up some additional areas that he noticed needed doing, which was hugely appreciated. John really went above and beyond. The final result is flawless and we are really pleased with the end result. We are getting a few other jobs around the house done, before asking John to return to do some further decorating for us in the near future! Thank you John!

    To remove wallpaper and paint all existing woodwork to entire bungalow

    Posted 10 October 2024

    John worked with me for over 3weeks. He listened to my requests and took them on board. He worked solo and very conscientiously daily with minimal interruption to my daily routine. He was able to use my garage for storage as each day ended and hence an easy option to start next day with minimum fuss. His original quote was his final quote so no add ons. He was clean efficient and more importantly available when I requested his services. Thank you John, I would not hesitate to recommend you to friends and family 🙂
