Chris has been decorating my house for over 25years. His work is always of the highest standard. On this occasion he re painted my lounge/dining room. As always he took time to protecting my floors and furniture before beginning the work, also ensuring my lounge was usable every evening, moving the sofa back and reconnecting the tv, nothing is too much trouble. He has done a fantastic job and I am extremely pleased with the results. He is always professional, friendly, and completely trustworthy, I give him a key in case I’m out. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him

Thank you for your wonderful 5* review. It's always a pleasure to work in your lovely home. The biggest challenge was the massive ceiling with triple aspect light source...two bi-folds and a window...it shows up everything but i researched a superb anti-reflex emulsion which produced a flawless finish of which i was most pleased with. Thirteen downlights, four speakers and a smoke alarm and not a brush mark in sight!

I recently employed Chris to redecorate my living room. He was professional, reliable and trustworthy, as well as fairly priced. I am very pleased with the result and would definitely use him again in the future. Thanks Chris!

Chris kindly quoted me for full decoration of both bedrooms in my flat. He gave a clear outline of what work might be needed given the current condition, what his quote included and a timescale. He was also able to connect me with a local joiner to create wardrobe doors that would be ready for his agreed start date. The work was completed within the expected timeframe and budget, and the finish is beautiful. I appreciated his guidance on how to tackle problems with the walls, which he worked very hard to resolve. Throughout the two weeks I was very happy to leave him to it but we also had a great rapport. He was very respectful of my home and always left his equipment neat and tidy. We've discussed future works - I would choose Chris to return due to the ease of the experience of working with him and theexcellent quality of his work. Thanks, Chris!

We have used Chris a number of times now having seen the many positive reviews on this website and have never been disappointed. Chris is very reliable, trustworthy (he decorated several rooms while we went away on holiday), very clean, tidy and is an excellent decorator. He takes a lot of pride and trouble over his work which results in a high quality finish. As an example of his attention to detail we had our staircase refurbished in oak but couldn’t find prefinished internal doors that we liked and that matched the staircase finish. Chris took away a sample of the oak veneer and was able to find a varnish that produced a very good match. We then purchased unfinished doors which Chris decorated. We were delighted with the result. If you are looking for a decorator you should definitely consider Chris Roach.

Chris arranged the redecoration of our downstairs and upstairs hallway and stairwell (preparing walls and woodwork, lining paper, painting). Both he and Sorin, who carried out the work, were a pleasure to deal with, great communication throughout the process, lots of good suggestions to improve the finish and very reliable. Everything was completed on time and on budget. They were punctual, tidy, unobtrusive and respectful. The quality of the work definitely exceeded my expectations and I would be very confident to recommend them.

Thank you for your wonderful 5* review. Your hallway was looking a bit tired and you wanted to have a nice, solid refresh. We spent a fair bit of time preparing all surfaces before starting the painting and wallpapering and ultimately achieved a finish we were very proud of. It was a pleasure working in your home and we would happily return should you need any more work undertaken.

I called Chris, my trusty decorator, to rectify water damage in my hallway. This involved cutting back part of a lath and plaster ceiling and replacing it with plasterboard and plastering over to make the joins seamless. Additionally part of a plasterboard wall, coving and a few drops of water damaged wallpaper needed replacing. All this repair work has been done perfectly and totally seamlessly and no one would know there had ever been any damage. Before work started Chris protected the existing non damaged wallpaper with wall protector attached to coving and the carpet with dust sheets and a carpet protector. Chris is so careful and pays attention to detail you can relax knowing nothing else will be damaged or marked in the process. He is very organised and exceptionally clean and tidy. He is a thoroughly nice guy and an amazing decorator - the best. I really cannot recommend him highly enough. Sue Moody Pinner

Thank you for your fantastic 5* review. Due to previous visits I’m fully aware of how much you value your lovely home. My first and most important job was to ensure that we protected all surrounding walls and carpets. You had suffered enough with the water ingress and I didn’t want to add to your misery! With this particular visit it was a case of slowly and methodically working through the various stages, removing debris as we went along to finally apply finishing paintwork and seamlessly piecing in the replacement wallpaper. I’m pleased you were happy with the outcome and I look forward to returning again some time in the future. 5* customer!!

We chose Chris Roach to completely redecorate our aged kitchen, having seen the positive reviews on this website. What a great decision. He, and his colleagues, have completely transformed a tired and aging kitchen into something that is light and modern, whilst still fitting in to our 1930’s house. The care taken, and quality of the result, are exceptional. Superb, we are really pleased. I would thoroughly recommend Chris Roach.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice review. It was an absolute joy to work on your kitchen. To minimise disruption I thought it was best to remove all doors, drawer fronts and plinths to paint them off site. Upon completion of doors, etc..I returned to site to start work on the carcasses and once all painting was finished we refitted doors with new soft-close hinges and attached your new handles. Finally, we changed old drawer runners with new custom made ones giving the whole kitchen a brand new look and feel. I always try to improve on every job I undertake trying new processes and/or materials and your kitchen is clearly the best one I have done to date.
Excellent decorator
I found Chris Roach after reading the very favourable recommendations left on this website and having benefited hugely from those reviews, am now only too pleased to leave my own review following excellent service received. I contacted Chris after another tradesman had let us down; in essence, Chris had to salvage a bit of a mess for us and to short order. Chris’ communications were excellent, he turned up on time and when he said he would, proved himself to be an outstanding decorator, hard-working, conscientious and, above all, his services were to the highest order. We are delighted to have found such an excellent tradesman, top class.

Thank you for your wonderful 5* review. Yes, I did inherit a bit of a mess on your feature wall from your previous trader but with a bit of time, effort and patience I quickly rectified the situation ensuring you could use your lounge over Christmas.
