    Outside House Painting

    Posted 1 day ago

    I have just had the outside of my house painted and what an excellent job has been done by Chris, everything from the preparation to the completion has been done with so much professionalism. I was kept informed and updated on every step of the way. I would recommend this company for all painting and decorating jobs I would not go any further than Rae of Colour for any future work I may have as I have had the best.

    Full kitchen repaint

    Posted 08 July

    We had a terrible leak from our bathroom into our kitchen, which left a lot of work to be done. Chris did an absolutely amazing job, covered all water stains thoroughly, took his time and did a very professional job for such a fair price. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
