Beautiful hand painted kitchen and dayroom decorate
Customer Service

Chris has worked with us now over a number of years. What stands out is how he takes care of your property whilst working with you ensuring floors etc are protected. He is meticulous from start to finish. His preparation is exceptional, this particular job required extensive preparation washing down and stripping back of multiple kitchen components before the multiple treatments were applied to the maple. The finish on the renovated kitchen units is exquisite and well worth the time. The balance of the kitchen and large attached dayroom was also given the same careful decorate. Chris knows his trade and is well informed on current products and those best applied on your particular project. He provides written estimates detailing exactly the scope of the works and invoices you accordingly. He is very considerate of the running of your family home and adapts his work routines accordingly. Chris is our decorator of choice and we would highly recommend him.

Wow. What a lovely review. Although it was quite involved I really enjoyed working on this project particularly hand painting the kitchen. It was a great help that you were on holiday for that part of the work as it meant absolute minimal inconvenience to you which is what we aspire to. I’m lucky to work on some wonderful projects but this was by far the best one we did this year. I’m looking forward to starting the master bedroom and study in the summer of ‘23.
Fantastic - As usual !

We have used Chris for our decorating needs for over 20 years now. He has always done a fantastic job for us. This time, Chris repainted the ceiling after a leak in the bathroom above had badly stained it, painted the kitchen walls which are now as good as the day the kitchen was fitted, painted the bathroom ceiling and finally added a feature wall to the bedroom. The feature wall looks fantastic and he made hanging a tricky beaded wallpaper look easy! The house is always left clean and tidy and he even knows to make sure our indoor cat doesn't get out ! We would highly recommend Chris, he's fantastic.

Chris has spent the past 10 months with us and we couldn’t be more pleased with how our home is looking. He has repainted all the rooms in the existing house, filling cracks and making repairs along the way to make each room as good as new and then decorated the new extension. He is super tidy, reliable, careful and takes great pride in his work. He is very easy to work with and nothing is too much trouble. Would not hesitate to recommend Chris.

Thank you for your wonderful review. It was a pleasure to work in your beautiful home. It is completely unrecognisable from my first day in September. You project managed the job perfectly ensuring areas were ready for us as and when required. Your simple, tasteful colour palette ensured that rooms flowed into each other enhancing the feel of the house. If I could rate you as a customer it would have to be 5/5.
What a find Chris is.

Chris was recommended to me by a friend who couldn’t speak more highly of him. I can see why. Chris has done a couple of small painting jobs for me, before totally redecorating my bedroom and back room. Obviously, having my bedroom ‘out of action’ was going to be disruptive, but Chris was willing to do whatever was necessary to minimise this, to the point of putting up my sofa bed in the back room. He is meticulous in the detail and the neatest of decorators I have come across. Always tidying up before leaving each evening. The standard of his work could’t be bettered. Paintwork and Wall papering fantastic. It so reassuring to know that I have found a brillant, honest decorator like Chris who you wouldn’t hesitate to leave alone in the flat whilst you pop out. He goes above and beyond what you would expect him to do. (He even put up blackout screens on my bedroom window as I’m waiting for curtains to be made). What a find Chris is.

Thank you for your generous review. I’m fortunate to have many wonderful customers and you fall into that group too. It was an absolute pleasure working for you again and I very much appreciated that you let me come at short notice. I look forward to seeing you next year for a kitchen refresh.

We employed Chris to redecorate our hall, stairs and landing which were in rather a poor state. From stripping off the old paint encrusted anaglypta wallpaper right through to the re-painting of the walls and woodwork Chris did a great job. We are very pleased with the resulting transformation.

Thank you for your kind review. The ceilings and walls were in a shocking state once the wall paper was stripped. A total re-plaster was the only option. Going on from there the job was fairly straight forward. I’m pleased you were happy with the outcome and I would be very happy to work for you again.

We were lucky enough to secure Chris' time to decorate our little Son's bedroom in September. The bedroom really needed it and had a lot of water damage and defects and so we were really looking forward to Chris decorating for us and making the room look new again. We were not disappointed! Chris did an amazing job! We were, and still, are absolutely delighted with the finish of our Son's bedroom. Chris is brilliant at what he does and his attention to detail is second to none. He is a true craftsman. We never want to use the services of another decorator again - we only want Chris to decorate the rest of our house! Chris is polite , friendly , professional and a pleasure to have in your home and he makes the whole decorating process stress free. Thank you Chris !

Thank you for your kind feedback. It was a pleasure to finally work for you after a few false starts due to covid measures. The water damage was quite extensive but once I got to grips with it it was fairly straightforward to deal with. I think you made the right choice changing from white walls to a soft neutral and the room looked lovely once furniture was put in and room furnished. I look forward to returning to undertake your hall, stairs and landing when mutually convenient.

The fifth job Chris has now done for us, all to the same superb standard. We appreciate Chris's professionalism and were very reassured by his attention to Covid restrictions while working in our house. Having stripped the old embossed wallpaper and arranged for an excellent plasterer to re-skim the ceiling, Chris has created beautifully smooth painted walls and ceiling. The painting of the woodwork is also second to none. Chris took great care to protect the oak floor and a sofa that could not be removed from the room, leaving the room immaculately clean at the end of the job. Chris is an excellent decorator who we would highly recommend.

Thank you for your kind feedback. It’s always a pleasure working in your home and the dining room is one of the best transformations I’ve undertaken. It was tough to strip existing painted anaglypta but once i got all the paper off I could then see what preparation was needed to ceiling and walls. The room looked lovely once the floor protection was removed and oak floor exposed. I look forward to starting your hall, stairs and landing around May.

Thank you for your lovely review and thank you for mentioning I was working in a covid-safe manner. Very important. The wallpaper put the finishing touches to your room and it will look wonderful when finally furnished with new sofas etc...

This is the second job Chris has undertaken for me. This time it was my lounge, in time for Christmas. Fantastic transformation! Chris is totally reliable, always happy to discuss ideas. He puts such care and attention into a job, my walls were not in the best condition, they look amazing now. Will be using Chris again in the New year. Highly recommend him.

Julie. Thank you for your latest review. Considering the state of the walls when I started, this is one of the best transformations I’ve undertaken. All it needs now is your Christmas tree in the bay!! It’s a pleasure working for you and I look forward to returning at your convenience.

Chris decorated my lounge and bedroom, both painting and papering, he did a fantastic job, the finish is really good. Even now I look at the painting which Chris did with a roller and wonder how he is able to achieve a flat finish with none of the usual stipple and roller effect. In relation to time keeping and tidiness, there were no issues with either, Chris arrived as agreed and left everything clean and tidy at the end of the day. I thoroughly recommend Chris and would definitely use him in the future.

Thank you for your kind feedback. It was a pleasure to work for you. It was a great help that both rooms were empty when I arrived. It made life very easy. The work was very straightforward and you chose a lovely wallpaper for your feature wall. I never got to see the room furnished but knowing your taste I’m sure it looked stunning.
