    When Ben quoted the job, I made it clear that we wanted attention to detail and as little mess as possible through out the project - especially as it was going to be about 4 weeks of work. He more than met our expectations. He delivered an excellent result - no paint where it shouldn’t be - lovely clean lines. Added to which he is a genuine, friendly person who keeps a really tidy work area and turns up when he says he will. I would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family and would definitely use him again.

    I cannot recommend Ben enough, he is AWESOME! I have been massisvly let down by other decorators in the past so I was apprehensive. Ben exceeded expectations by a long shot, simply no comparison. He was at my home when he said he would be, no chasing him around, punctual! What a pleasant experience to actually work with someone who takes pride in his work and is respectful of others people's time. Ben's work ethic and attention to detail is brilliant, in a class all on his own! Both my husband and I are incredibly pleased, THANK YOU BEN!
