About

I'm Daniel Bastos, a professional painter and decorator established in the Wimbledon and South West London area for 17 years.
I place exacting and high standards upon myself in the quality of my work and take great pride in the painting and decorating I do… it's getting the detail right that makes all the difference to me, and all the difference to you.

I take on work throughout Wimbledon and Merton, across South West London and Surrey and welcome all kinds of decorating projects from a single room to the whole house.

I have built up a strong list of very satisfied clients who I work for regularly. Consequently a large part of the painting and decorating projects I undertake come through referrals and recommendations. I currently have clients stretching from central London to Guildford.

Its important that I provide a friendly and efficient service to the very highest standards, ensuring I meet your precise requirements.

Daniel has just completed painting the exterior of our house. Before the work started, he was responsive to queries about timing, and kept in touch until the agreed date. On starting the job, he arrived punctually. Despite having to cope with the rainy summer, the work was done to the schedule he had given us, and to the estimate. We are delighted with the result. His attention to detail was excellent, and he was willing to tackle some hard to reach features that other painters were unwilling to take on. He was patient, courteous and took care to consult on issues which arose during the work.

I appointed Daniel Bastos Ltd to paint the exterior walls of my Victorian end of terrace property, which were badly in need of a good coat of paint. Daniel was very professional and courteous - from the moment he came to assess the work I required until the paint work was done. He and Parnelli arrived very promptly every morning, kept me informed of their progress and worked diligently during the day. They paid great attention to detail, repaired the parts of the walls that had lost part of the render, primed this, and gave the three sides of my home the two coats of paint. The work was completed on 5th June. The exterior walls look new! I am extremely pleased with the results and I would definitely employ Daniel to do any paint work that I require in the future and would recommend him to family and friends.

I was looking to have my place painted and found Daniel’s name online. He was utterly professional from the very start. He was always available to communicate and gave me a quote which I was very happy with. His work is top quality. His attention to detail, meticulous care with the choice of paint, finish, timing of work and organisation really impressed me. I will be using only Daniel from now on for any painting. He was trustworthy , had no hidden costs, finished before the anticipated time and worked tirelessly! I am very grateful for all his advice and the beautiful end result.

We hired Daniel to decorate both inside and outside the house. He had already come highly recommended by a neighbour and from our first contact he was helpful and responsive to messages. If he said he'd be there or that he'd send us something, he always did in a short timeframe. When he started the work, he did an excellent job and always left the place immaculate before he left to ensure we didn't feel like we were living in a building site. He checked with us before he started on anything new that he had the right colour - and identified that the paint we had for some of the work might not really be the shade we'd wanted. The work took the time he'd estimated and although it was more expensive than other quotes were - it was worth every penny.

We employed Daniel to do some external work on our house in November. Prior to starting he discussed our requirements in detail and produced an itemised fixed price quote. Bad weather caused some unavoidable delay but Daniel was very flexible and kept us fully informed about progress. We found him to be polite, helpful and friendly and the work was completed to a high standard. We will go to him again the next time we need a painter/decorator.

Daniel and Plinio came to redecorate the rear of our 4 storey house: lots of windows and doors to prep and paint, as well as various masonry repairs. Since the scaffolders did not complete on schedule but were absent for a week after making a start Daniel had to adjust his work plan, starting at ground floor and then accessing what was possible from ladders, in order to try to keep the project on track. Then, with brickies, chippie, and roofer also working on the job, a fair degree of cooperation and consideration was required. Throughout the project Daniel was particularly helpful and flexible in his approach, his communication was excellent, and both he and Plinio were a pleasure to have working on the house - they also tidied up exceptionally well. The end result looks great, and will hopefully weather well for a good number of years.

I chose Daniel Bastos in the first place because of his Which? Trusted Trader status. His quotation was not the cheapest I received, but was worth every penny. He and his colleague were totally reliable and considerate of me because I was also in the house for much of the time and they were decorating my sitting room, stairs and two landings, which was inevitably disruptive for all of us. They were courteous and cheerful and their skill was obvious in their standard of workmanship, and the completely professional and well-organised routine that they followed. They made an excellent team. I was also extremely grateful for their help in re-hanging all my pictures and replacing my heavy furniture on completion of the job. I am elderly and could not do this safely myself.

I employed Daniel in 2021 to repaint our kitchen and we were so pleased with the result that we asked them back to do a much bigger job. Daniel and his team had to redecorate a large sitting room, with coving and picture rails and wainscot. This entailed sanding lots of woodwork, sugar soaping the papered ceiling and other painted wall surfaces and repainting, stripping other wallpaper and replacing it. I cannot praise Daniel and his team enough. They arrived punctually, worked very hard and quickly and did the job in super fast time. But it was all done with great care and attention to detail and looks wonderful. They even cleaned our windows afterwards and replaced the big furniture and carpet, all without being asked. I would recommend them to anyone and use them again.

Being a bit of a perfectionist, I was keen to find a painter who was serious about preparing the woodwork before applying the paint. My windows weren't really bad, but did need attention in order to prevent deterioration. I would say that Daniel did a proper and professional job of sanding, filling and making good. He also pointed out areas that needed to be monitored for the future, rather than just covering them up. He was courteous, arrived on time, worked hard all day, cleared up after himself and was thoroughly professional at all times. I would certainly recommend him and will definitely use his services again.

We got Daniel in to wallpaper two large walls in our house with artistic intricately patterned paper. He quoted for the work and fulfilled the job within the quote. More than that, Daniel realised something we hadn't - the 'repeat' specification on the wallpaper. Due to this, we realised we didn't have sufficient paper to perfectly tessellate the design across the wall. However, Daniel used what paper we had left and spotlessly integrated it into the areas not covered by the repeat. The walls look stunning. Daniel is a communicative and very responsive contractor. He was really polite and friendly. He carried out the work without causing any disturbance and left our flat spotless. He is very neat and precise, and we would happily use him again. We would also recommend him to others.

We engaged Daniel to complete the plastering and painting of our living room, 2 bedrooms and hall. We decided to move out for the duration of the works, so wanted someone we felt we could trust with our flat. We found that in Daniel - we had no hesitation in leaving him to perform the work whilst we were away. Daniel did an exceptional job on our plastering / painting, and is obviously a perfectionist, taking time once the job was nearly complete to review any areas where he considered repainting was needed, and coming back several days to ensure that he was happy with the job. More than that, though, even though he had originally estimated that the work would take 4 weeks (which was in line with other time estimates), when we asked whether it would be possible to move back home after 3, he worked extra hours in the final week to ensure that the work was all but complete by then. We would definitely engage Daniel again, on the basis of the quality of the work done but also on the basis of having trust in him.

We first hired him to do a complete renovation project, when he had to strip back many layers of old paint and wallpaper from our Victorian house. He worked painstakingly, with outstanding attention to detail and with as much care and attention as he would if it was his own property. The results have been magnificent.
