    Exterior painting

    Posted 10 October

    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.

    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

    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.

    Marcin did an excellent job. We were very happy with the quality of his work and would have no hesitation in engaging him again. He was courteous and respectful, turned up on time and completed the job as agreed and in the time agreed. We strongly recommed him.
