    Hallway and living room decoration work

    Posted 23 April

    Marcin just finished refreshing my hallway and living room. I am extremely happy with the job and Marcin was very helpful throughout. He used a spray machine which enabled him to complete the job efficiently, while paying extreme attention to even the closest detail. Thanks Marcin. Would definitely recommend.

    Good job

    Posted 18 April

    Marcin did a phenomenal job repainting my children's bedrooms. I really appreciated his excellent customer service, professionalism, and clear communication right from the onset. He was very meticulous in his work and we are so pleased with the result. I couldn't recommend Marcin enough.

    Great decorator

    Posted 02 February

    Marcin did a great job repairing a door frame, filling cracks in plaster and painting several areas in our kitchen and hallway. He was very knowledgeable, polite and professional throughout the work. I would be happy to recommend him.

    Exterior painting

    Posted 10 October 2025

    The painting was done quickly and to a good standard (though final checking was not 100%). Marcin seemed expensive (eg £300 for a 9cm wide bay windowsill) and communication wasn’t easy. His quote was brief and imprecise and getting clarification of exactly what was included took time and effort. Once work started he asked for a £1000 payment on account. He also asked for an additional payment because he said there was more rotten wood to replace than he’d expected. His final invoice required payment on the date of issue, 2 days later he chased payment and 5 days later threatened legal action.

    Bathroom painting

    Posted 16 July 2025

    Overall a good job. Honoured the original quote despite job taking longer than originally expected.

    Stripping wall paper, repairing plaster and painting

    Posted 05 April 2025

    Marcin was so extremely thorough, the quality of the work was great. One or two issues popped up given how old the walls and ceilings were but Marcin explained everything and managed it all. I've found it hard to find a reliable, professional painter/decorator but I will definitely be using Marcin again in the future.
