    Professional, talented and tidy!

    Posted 06 December

    Chris is an absolute perfectionist, and when you want your home looking amazing, I genuinely wouldn't choose anyone else for the job. He's efficient, professional, talented, knowledgeable, honest and to the point. You couldn't ask for anything more. I'm so pleased with my living room, and I will be calling Chris again to carry out more work for us. He's amazing at what he does. And now I have experienced his quality, I wouldn't use anyone else!

    Top Class decorator

    Posted 29 November

    From the very first moment of contacting Chris his professionalism and quality has been top class. He has transformed our living room, dining room, kitchen and bathroom. His attention to detail is incredible. Very reasonably priced he goes above and beyond. Punctual, and immaculate finishing to his work. He’s also a genuinely warm and caring person, really wanting the best for the customer. I can’t recommend him enough.

    The Best Painter Around

    Posted 25 November

    I can’t believe how good of a job Chris has done to our forever home. We have used Rae of colour for several years now, and the Finish/prep/time he takes doesn’t go un noticed. The best painter around. Would highly recommend Rae Of Colour for any painting jobs. Thank you so much we love it.
