    Redecoration of full house

    Posted 21 April

    Martin and his team have been fantastic. We are really happy with their work. Pleasure having them at the house and they were very responsive and made sure all snagging bits were done before they finished the job. Thank you Martin!

    First class decorators

    Posted 14 February

    We found MKS (Martin and Charlie) through checkatrade. We needed out hallway and bedroom decorated. Martin came around to give us quote and some advice. It was the lowest of the quotes we received. We arranged a date for the work to start and Martin and Charlie arrived promptly. They were with us for four days and we was very impressed with how fast they worked, leaving no mess at the end of each day. We were more than happy with the result. Professional, fast and clean not to mention very reasonably priced! You can't ask for more. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend MKS Decor.

    We’re extremely pleased with the painting and decorating work done in our house. The finish is flawless, with great attention to detail throughout, and everything was completed to a very high standard. Martin was professional, reliable, and kept the house clean and tidy at all times. The work was finished on schedule and the results have completely transformed our home.
