  Fully recommended

  Posted 20 January

  Michael has practically decorated our entire house over the last 9 years and has always done a first class job - most recently decorating our hall / staircase and landing to a very high standard ( removing old wallpaper and relining walls before painting over + painting all woodwork and ceilings) .We are delighted with it and appreciated his input into what colour to go for .He also dealt with some mould in a built in wardrobe .Michael is always friendly/ totally trustworthy and punctual . We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anybody.

  Excellent work by Michael

  Posted 11 November 2025

  Excellent work carried out by Michael who was professional and friendly. He put up a mural in my son’s room, fixed a ceiling and decorated a very tricky feature wall to a fantastic standard. Highly recommend for both painting and wallpapering

  Internal Painting

  Posted 09 November 2025

  We contacted Michael as we were looking to have our lounge/diner and hallways painted. When discussing this with Michael initially he provided us with a few ideas to think about and subsequently provided us with a reasonable quote. We decided to go ahead and all the work has been completed to a high standard and within the agreed timescale with Michael arriving on time every morning. We found Michael to be a polite and hardworking guy and would not hesitate to recommend him for any painting work you may be undertaking.

  Brilliant!

  Posted 31 October 2025

  Michael was recommended by a friend and when we met him, we knew that he was the right person. He repainted all of our wooden windows externally (including renovation of parts that had weather-damage). He also repainted the external wooden cladding covering the top half of the house. It looks amazing. Michael is a lovely relaxed and positive person who is a delight to have around. If only every tradesman could be like him! The work was top quality and he doesn’t waste time chatting or having rests - just gets on with the job in a very efficient way. Highly recommended

  Kitchen painting

  Posted 23 June 2025

  Michael did such a great job of preparing our kitchen for decorating and then the subsequent painting, after we had ceiling spotlights fitted and our walls chased out for electrical work. Michael did all of this in a day and to a fantastic standard. Fantastic communication throughout and extremely competitive on price. We would recommend Michael to anyone and will have him back again to do other rooms in the house when we get round to it. Thank you Michael!
