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!!
Very high quality and professional service

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.
Highly recommended

Chris dealt with one wall of my house that had suffered from penetrating damp when rain leaked through window frames where the seal had broken. He replastered and painted the interior of the wall, and then fixed the cracks and repainted the exterior of the wall, ensuring that the window frames were weatherproof. I am so pleased with the result. Everything was done to a very high standard, and the disruption was minimal. Chris and his workers left everything clean and tidy. Without exception they were all so pleasant and I really recommend this company.

Thank you for your wonderful review. It was imperative that we got all external works completed before the weather turned and we’re very lucky we got three dry days in October to complete the task.
A diligent and tricky Job, what a star!

Chris did a delicate job on repairing and repainting our ceiling. Chris was very diligent in his preparation and work. A very pleasant person who communicates well and is obviously very proud of his work. He also is punctual and delivers on his words. Would I recommend him? Yes, yes and yes again! The guy is a star!

Thank you for your generous words regarding the service I provide and the finish I achieve. I’ve spent a long time trying to establish my business to a standard that I’m happy with and whilst I’m always trying to improve it it’s so nice for someone like yourself to appreciate it. You mentioned further work in the future and I would be very happy to work in your lovely home again. Thank you.

One wall in my living room needed replastering after penetrating damp from a broken window frame. Chris gave me good advice and a sensible quote, and that, combined with reviews, helped me make my decision. I am very glad. The plastering was done quickly, to a very high standard, and without any mess. Then the wall was repainted, again without unnecessary disturbance and the room was left tidy afterwards. I am very happy with the result and I am going to ask Chris to repaint the external wall for added peace of mind. I am confident he will do a good job. He is very helpful and pleasant to deal with, and I recommend him.

I have used Chris to decorate my house for approximately 6 years. I am fussy and particular about the standard and quality of work undertaken in my house and Chris always does an outstanding job - I have also recommended him to several of my friends who are equally impressed. He is extremely helpful and nothing is too much trouble for him. He is a lovely and trustworthy guy and I have no hesitation leaving him alone in my house whilst I am out. He is a lucky find and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Thank you for your wonderful review. Although it was only a half day visit to repair your wallpaper due to a radiator upgrade I still approached the work with my usual care and attention because I believe no job is too small for any customer.

We have used Chris before and found his work excellent so asked him back to organise the redecoration of 5 rooms and our wooden staircase. The job was done to a very high specification and we are very pleased with the excellent results. The decorator was helpful in making suggestions and pointing out any issues along the way. Any extras were always discussed and agreed beforehand and there were no hidden costs. The house was always left tidy. The perfect job!

Thank you for your lovely review and generous praise. I left this job in the very capable hands of my long term colleague, Sorin, as I had other commitments elsewhere. As a returning customer with high standards I had to make sure you would get the same service and finish you’ve come to expect and Sorin was perfect for this job. He’s fastidious and patient and consistent. He enjoyed working for you and would welcome a return visit some time on the distant future.

We asked Chris back to decorate our TV room after the excellent job he did to our Hall, Stairs and Landing. Once again his work was excellent and cannot express how pleased we are with the superb finish. He is an excellent workman, always on time, attention to detail is second to none. Cannot recommend him highly enough.

Chris came highly recommended to us. We liked his approach from the start and decided to go ahead. We were not disappointed. He wallpapered our hall, stairs and landing which looks fantastic. His attention to detail is second to none. He is meticulous in his preparation, cares about your property, goes out of his way to help and nothing seems too much trouble. He is a very friendly person who gets on with the job and we would not hesitate to recommend him.
