    Posted 03 December 2025

    Mark has been great. He worked around me. Coming in the evenings to paint. The job he’s done is great and I’m very pleased with the results and the price. We’ll be moving onto the next room next week.

    Exceptional

    Posted 03 December 2025

    Absolutely excellent. I am delighted I found Mark. He has done a terrific job for us. Mark cares about what he does. He works neatly and tidily. He is very able and wants his customers to be very satisfied with his work. I hope Mark returns after Christmas to continue with my decorating and a full external redecoration in the spring. I highly recommend. The Small Job Company. Thank you so much.

    Interior decorating

    Posted 14 November 2025

    Mark has just cured a damp patch on a bedroom ceiling, caused by a now fixed leaky roof. His work is thorough, to a high standard and very tidy. He is punctual and his rates are very good.

    Decorating

    Posted 20 October 2025

    As a partially sighted person living alone even the simplest of jobs can be difficult. Enter Mark. After changing a light bulb, tightening the handle on the fridge freezer Mark got on with the main work which was decorating a bedroom, then putting up the bed and curtain poles/curtain. Thank you Mark. Great work.

    Quality, reliable and efficient decorator

    Posted 14 October 2025

    In October 2025 Mark painted our kitchen, dining room and lounge in our home in Yelland, Barnstaple. The attention to detail was first class and the work equally as good. We left the house in Mark's capable hands for a week while we were on holiday and were not disappointed when we returned. No hesitation in asking Mark to do further work for us in the future.

    Extension painting

    Posted 19 September 2025

    Mark has been to our house to paint our new extension, with such short notice due to an upcoming baby he made sure to get the job done in short notice and to a great standard, we are really pleased and will definitely be using him again to refresh the rest of the house! Thank you 😊

My name is Mark, and I have been in the building trade for 40 years working for various employers covering anything from large industrial units to care homes to family extensions.

I have set up in business to do all those little jobs that you never get around to doing. I have a range of skills that cover most domestic jobs.

I can handle projects such as:

  • Re-decorating.
  • Small renovations.
  • Hanging pictures.
  • Carpentry.
  • Small extensions.
  • Refurbishments.
  • Any odd jobs you cant / don't want to finish.
  • Loft boarding.
  • Garage, Shed & Loft Clearance.

I can offer you an hourly rate for smaller jobs, or all in price for the completed job and all quotes are free.

I am a tidy tradesman who takes pride in your home and pride in my work. I will only ever be happy when you are too.

I have recently moved from Bournemouth to Bideford and will continue to offer the same great service, so please call me for advice and hopefully I can be of assistance.
