Capital Painters

From the start to the finish, Capital Painters has been responsive, knowledgeable, truly helpful and utterly reliable. He has always been a pleasure to deal with. We have a two bedroom flat which is filled with delicate antique furniture. We escaped to Cornwall for the two weeks; reassuringly, they contacted me about three times to ensure he was doing as we wanted. Whilst we packed up contents to make moving the furniture easier, the team did a terrific job: the furniture was looked after, the painting is excellent and all finished on time. He has had the courtesy to check and double check that we are satisfied. We HIGHLY recommend Capital Painters to do a professional job and would DEFINITELY ask him again - though he’s done so well it should last for years!

Matt and his team from Capital Painters did a fantastic job repairing and painting the exterior walls, windows and doors of our four storey Georgian house. From the initial quoting process through to the final brush stroke they were a pleasure to deal with. Their work was thorough, professional and to a very high standard. Matt kept us informed of all aspects of the job, especially when it came to repairing the old, rotten window frames which they repaired and restored beautifully. They showed great flexibility in dealing with our constantly changing plans/schedule and delivered a property we can once again be very proud of! Well done!

Matt redecorated my flat after a recent fire caused some smoke damage, which included sealing walls, and repainting walls and ceilings. Having received a few unpersonalised quotes from other traders, I was impressed how honest and upfront Matt was, including advising me on options which ultimately ended up reducing the quoted price! His work was great, cleaned up afterwards after, and I would have no hesitation to appoint him again.

The best external decoration I have witnessed in many projects over 50 years. Most importantly, Matt surveyed the rear of our 3 storey house in detail to identify all weak points requiring repair. He did not paint over the top of the faults as has happened in the past. He repaired inaccessible rotten woodwork and pointing with what I considered was exceptional commitment. It goes without saying that the preparation and paintwork were very good, as were the punctuality, cost/ budget control, tidiness, cleanliness and site maintenance. The business process was handled very professionally from first visit and quotation through to invoicing and this process was supported by excellent communication and, I have to say, charm!

I found Matt/Capital Painters on Which? Trusted Traders so had hopes of good service and quality workmanship. Pleased to report that I wasn’t disappointed at all. The job was to repaint the front of 4 floor large terrace house in Brooke Green W14. Building is divided into flats and we manage maintenance ourselves. I got 2 quotes - Matts was competitive and provided quickly and with appropriate level of detail. Then the lockdown hit and I have to say Matt was superb in maintaining dialogue and flexibility as we worked out if/when the works could proceed. Matt organised scaffolding (I then paid their invoice directly) and then did a great job working solo to observe rules. Other flat owners complimented Matt on working efficiently and unobtrusively - tidying up carefully each day was a nice touch and appreciated. Work was completed as expected and to budget quoted. We communicated regularly from start to finish of the project, and I found Matt quick to respond and courteous in all communications. I’ve already asked Matt to quote for further works!

Matt was great at communicating from start to finish. He took a lot of care over the preparation of the walls and ceilings to give us the best finish. He worked quickly but got the job done to a high standard - and he even came back for an extra couple of hours to give it a final once over. He works really tidily and he always put the furniture back at the end of the day so we could use the space. We're looking forward to having him back to do the other half of the flat.

Matt undertook the redecoration of the living room and entrance hall in my apartment in Fulham to a very high standard within the timeframe and the price which was agreed for this job. I appreciated the fact that his estimate for doing this job was detailed so that I could see his price for the materials and his labour separately. He was polite and respectful at every stage of the process from obtaining his initial estimate through to completion of the job. I have no hesitation in recommending Matt as a first class painter and decorator who can be relied upon to complete his work to a very high standard on time and on budget.

Matt has just finished painting my living room and entrance hall on time and to budget. He was punctual, courteous and helpful. His preparation of surfaces was meticulous and the painting was carried out to a very high standard. Matt also kept the working area beautifully clean - no stray spots of paint and he used a machine that sands and sucks up the dust at the same time. So no extra cleaning from me was needed. Warmly recommended.

Matt was brilliant from start to finish. He took our rather crumbling paintwork on the outside of the house and steps and has completely transformed it. Matt was always approachable, gave good advice and guidance on colours and materials, and helped to make the job super easy. I work away from home but was happy for Matt to have access to the property - he was tidy and respectful, tidying up after himself and completely trustworthy. We're delighted with the finished work which came in on budget. Any delays were because Matt wanted to produce the best quality work and therefore didn't want to do external work when the rain would damage the final appearance. Really pleased and already planning the internal painting for next year. Would definitely recommend!

Matt made an excellent job of redecorating my bedroom which had not been painted for some time, and in consequence was in need of quite a bit of repair and making good, had numerous cracks etc. The room has now been completely transformed, looks light and bright and good as new. He has excellent attention to detail, did other work to put right things I had not even noticed needed doing, and I felt he took great pride in his work and was committed to doing a really good job. In addition, he was very pleasant and polite, and kept everything tidy.
