    Top Quality Workmanship

    Posted 20 January

    We have used Mark several times now for decorating, his work is of a very high standard and he is always happy to accomodate our requests, even if they are somewhat bespoke! He is always on time and works without disrupting. I would highly recommend him.

    We have used Mark again to carry out further redecorations, this time a bedroom and cupboard. Once again Mark carried out his work to a very high standard and if you are looking for a decorator who gives attention to detail I would not hesitate to recommend Mark .

    First time using a decorator

    Posted 27 November 2025

    All I can say is Mark was excellent and I would definitely recommend you book him! We don’t really like having people in our home, especially unsupervised but from the moment we met Mark we knew we could trust him. Marks workmanship was fantastic, super clean and tidy throughout, did a great job and very trustworthy. We will definitely be using mark again.

    Bedroom repaint

    Posted 02 November 2025

    Mark repainted a spare bedroom that had been neglected for 30yrs so there were areas of damp and numerous cracks to fill. The end result is fantastic. He’s quick, punctual and very quiet and communicates well about start times etc.

    Bedroom Decoration

    Posted 20 September 2025

    This is the second time Mark has come to decorate at our house and his work is fantastic. He has a real attention to detail, gives great advice and worked round our busy family life. He left the house clean and tidy at the end each day. We will continue to use him and would highly recommend.
