Chalk & Brown

Gary and Paul did an excellent job. I’m fussy and they did an excellent job. That’s how good they are. I have nothing bad to say as all the other reviews say it all and I’d just be repeating it all. Book them in and you’ll see. We are already booking next three rooms to do. Will have to wait, but we can be patient.

We highly recommend Chalk and Brown, the only caveat being that they do such a good job and are honest about timescales so there may be a long wait to get them but it is worth it! We have seen their van in our area over the years and tried them for the first time ourselves to paint and make good a large attic room and two bathrooms, this included making and fixing a back board for a curtain rail. Work was completed with care within agreed timescales using good quality products and employing equipment my husband envies - sander with vacuum cleaner which meant no dust crept anywhere. We are already trying to book them for external work and more decorating inside! Yes they are not the cheapest but they are value for money.

Gary and Paul redecorated a number of rooms in our house including hall , landing and stairs. Their work is of exceptional quality. They work really hard, expertly prepping all walls and ceilings before painting. It's a quality job . They are always on time, are extremely friendly and always clear up at the end of each day. Thanks so much Gary and Paul for all the hard work!

This is the second time we have used Chalk & Brown. They decorated one floor of our house (two bedrooms and a bathroom). Why we use them? 1. They are complete professionals who works to the highest standards and always do an excellent job 2. They are completely self sufficient 3. They are very pleasant people to deal with They are not the cheapest but I've found you get what you pay for. Would recommend them without hesitation and will use them again. Because of their reputation Gary and Paul are always very busy so be aware you may have a long lead-time for their services.

Local company with full ICI accreditation that completed the work quickly, cleanly and to an extremely high standard. their work is a credit to them. I would always recommend them, although we will be having more painting work in the future so will have to start booking them now! Nice chaps also.

We engaged Chalk & Brown to redecorate the exterior windows, doors and porch of our Victorian home. We were aware of some areas of rotten timber so it was important to hire a firm that could provide both carpentry and decoration expertise. To borrow one of Gary’s sayings, Chalk & Brown were “not the cheapest, but…” we felt that they would treat the property with the care it deserves, work with us to preserve its original features and, in the long run, be good value for money because their work would stand the test of time / the weather. We were not disappointed. Communication was excellent. The quality of the workmanship was superb. Gary & Paul worked long hours and consistently went the extra mile, even fixing two of our gates (not part of the project brief). We really enjoyed their company and hope to work with them again soon.

This is the third time we have used Chalk and Brown over the 24 years we have used Chalk and Brown to pain the outside of our house- and they turn up on time work very hard and long hours to get the job done. I have recommended them to other neighbours and in fact they came recommended to me from a friend.

Gary and Paul are perfectionists. They prepare every surface thoroughly before undercoat and paint. The most recent job was painting the exterior of our house, which is partly rendered, and it now looks terrific. They are incredibly reliable, hardworking and professional. We have been using them for more than 20 years for internal and external painting and decorating. Chalk & Brown workmanship is superb and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Work included preparation of all surfaces for painting, including plugging ceiling holes (from electrical work), sealing skirting boards. Painting of all surfaces. Work was excellent, very thorough, professional and friendly throughout. Always discussed options and listened to our requirements. Fantastic job!

Chalk & Brown were recommended to us and this is the second time we have used them (now for both external and internal decorating work). Their work is efficient, thorough, tidy and of a very high quality. The detail and finish of their work is excellent (having had different experiences with other firms previously). Cheerful and polite they are a pleasure to work with. We would absolutely use them again and happily recommend them to friends and family.
