    High level decorator

    Posted 03 March

    Lee from LV decorators just painted two bedrooms for us. Work is superb. Old building so a lot of preparation work, which was done painstakingly and finished to a fine level. Has since been back to make sure everything was fine and repair a couple of marks made by us putting furniture back. Overall excellent, we have him booked for later in the year to do more work for us.

    Lee, is an excellent professional and one of the best painters I have ever seen. Lee not only does a great job, he is both practical and proactive which ensures an amazing end product. I’d highly recommend him.

    Meticulous workman

    Posted 10 January

    Lee painted the outside of our house last year so we had no hesitation in asking Lee if he could paint our hall, stairs, landing and downstairs toilet. His meticulous approach to the removal of wallpaper, preparation of the walls and woodwork mirrored his outside work. He put two coats (and more in places) on the ceilings, walls and woodwork. We will be using Lee again and again...... so no hesitation in recommending him at all.

    Skilled painter/decorator

    Posted 08 November 2025

    If you’re looking for a decorator who takes real pride in his work , this is the person to contact. Great attention to detail in using a heavily pattered wallpaper and excellent paint finishes . Add to that a methodical and tidy work ethic and respectful of property, cannot fault. Very fair estimate . Highly recommended .
