10 Professional painter and fantastic person!
Posted 6 days ago
Ashley was very professional in painting our house (living area, hallway and stairway). He was patient in answering my many questions. For example, we requested multiple iterations to our quote and he obliged us every single time. Not once did it make us feel it was too much to ask. Another example of how great he is, was completing our work earlier based on our request cos the movers were scheduled to come. And not to forget the actual work, which is very beautiful and clean. We love it (the pictures and videos don’t do justice cos of my poor video and picture taking skills). I recommend Ash!Verified reviewerJob location: CB2410 Painting for home renovation

Ashley has been amazing. We renovated a home and needed the whole house to be painted. Ashley did an amazing job within a relatively shorty time period and was really accommodating when other trades people needed access to the areas he was working. Nice guy and always arrived on time. The house hadn’t been painted in 20 years, looks like a new house!Verified reviewerJob location: PE2810 Would 100% recommend!

Ashley painted our whole house, garage doors and front door and we couldn’t be happier with how it’s turned out. He is extremely good at what he does and I would highly recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: PE2810 Paint entire 3-bed house

Ashley was great! Very accommodating even when we didn’t clear out the furniture before he started working, and was hard-working and friendly throughout the entire process.Verified reviewerJob location: CB310 Prep and painting of walls, ceilings and woodwork

Ashley did a super job in our house. We had most of the house decorated- he did a very thorough job on our walls, ceilings and woodwork (can’t even see the previous dodgy plastering on the walls anymore!). Very friendly, great communication and we’ll absolutely be using him for any future work.Verified reviewerJob location: CB410 Preparation of walls and woodwork for decorating
