I recently had Nick in to redecorate my mum's bedroom who had sadly recently passed away, he was compassionate, understanding and very helpful on what I was planning for the bedroom and gave me many ideas on what would work and look good, and throughout the time always kept in regular contact with me as I was at work all day. Throughout the time Nick worked for me I was at work and so I trusted him with the keys to my house and also my bubs, Roxy who is a 4 year old Belgium shepherd to say Roxy loved and him back was such an emotional thing for me that shows that he is very very very trustworthy, and this is very rare to find you are leaving your house and dog to someone. Nick did a fantastic job on the bedroom and I have now booked him again for another room to be done as I know his workmanship and reliability and professionalism and quality of work is of a very high standard... and again this rare to find. I recommend Nick one hundred percent and is totally trustworthy in your house, bonus treat was the great dog lover. For reliability, great job done, professionalism and very good value for money and someone who goes above and beyond their quote Nick is your man.

Disgraceful work ethics and poor customer service
I recently had the displeasure of working with Nick this year. He has been very awkward to liaise with. Despite providing us with a quote for painting and decorating the house - a job that we agreed in October to commence on the 12th December - we received very little contact from Nick. Several of our requests by text for an update were ignored, and it was only at 3pm the day before the work was due to commence that Nick phoned us up, suggesting that he was 'reluctant to do the job', and on the call he eventually cancelled the work altogether. His lack of skills in managing a working relationship will now cause us significant delays, as we will need to start from the very beginning to bring new people in and get our home renovation back on track. His demeanor was also very poor whenever we spoke, and unfortunately his arrogance greatly overshadowed any of his abilities as a tradesman. If you are searching for a handyman or decorator, do not choose this man as in my experience he will waste your time and cause substantial delays to your works.

Painted sitting room, hall and dining room. Nick turned up on time, did an excellent job and cleared up as much as possible at the end of each day. All for previously quoted price and less time than estimated. We have already asked him to quote for painting more rooms in a few months time.

Nick was reliable, friendly and professional from the first point of contact. The price he quoted was very competitive, he always came when he said he would, the plastering and painting were done to an excellent standard and he left the room clean and tidy on completion. He told me to contact him if I had any problems after he had left, but there were no problems at all. I was delighted with the standard of work and would thoroughly recommend him for any plastering or decorating job.

Nick is a qualified electrician and we have used him for electrical work, but he is also a painter and decorator and we have also used him for decorating. In all the work he does Nick is thorough and professional and works to the highest standards, and he is neat and tidy. We have been very impressed both with his work and his attitude. He is punctual, consistent and reliable which is so important with trades people. He is also efficient and a quick worker. His prices are very reasonable particularly considering the excellent standard of his work. I cannot recommend him enough. If you hire Nick for either electrical work or for decorating you will not be disappointed. Many thanks Nick

Nick painted the whole interior of my house (including walls, ceilings and woodwork) and did a fantastic job. Being multi-skilled, he was also able to help me with some plastering and electrical work which was meticulous. I haven't had a lot of luck with trades in the past, but found Nick to be personable and very happy to go above and beyond to advise me and make sure that the finish was exactly as I wanted. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Nick painted our hall, landing, and stairs on three floors as well as several doors and handrails. We were very impressed with his work, which looks fantastic. Nick was very pleasant to deal with throughout and went above and beyond with his help and advice. We approached Nick on recommendation from a friend and found him to be just as good as we were told he would be. Would definitely use again.

Getting a quote was quick and easy, with good communication from Nick. He sorted a range of electrical tasks for me (changing light fittings outside, in the garage, loft) and upgraded a few sockets and switches. All very efficiently done - I'd have no hesitation recommending him or using him again.

BBS Home Improvements had a great deal of preparation work to do including stripping wall paper and wood paintwork back to basics, including sanding paintwork due to the condition. It is the first job BBS has done for me and I found him helpful with ideas and suggestions. The result of his work carried out is excellent. He covered all areas which also included the stairs for protection and also cleared up after each day. The work was completed on time and as quoted. I now have a lovely room and will use them again for other work. I found them to be a pleasant, polite and trustworthy person and importantly felt very comfortable having him working in my house.

Nick plastered my hall ceiling and I'm really pleased with the end result. He was helpful, friendly and polite - and hoovered the hall after the plastering was finished, ensuring everything was left tidy. He finished the job in the time previously advised and as per the estimate. I wholeheartedly recommend Nick - and I've asked him to come back in the Spring to paint the outside of my house
