    Friendly, reliable and top quality work

    Posted 1 day ago

    Steve was brilliant from start to finish. Friendly, gave great advice in terms of what was possible in our old house on walls with a mix of wallpaper, fresh plaster and bits that needed TLC. The finish is just brilliant - we are so glad we found and used Steve and Jake. Great attention to detail, tidy work and on time each day on a job that required a lot of work. We would recommend Steve to anyone looking for a decorator!

    Fantastic! 5*’s

    Posted 10 March

    Was an absolute pleasure to have Steven & Jake transform our home. Communication was excellent from getting the quotation, to arriving at the property and completing the work. We were kept upto date throughout and everything was done honestly. The standard of work is excellent with no faults at all. They were both respectful of the property at all times and I would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends. Thanks once more!
