Painting and decorating in and out of the house.
Ian came to assess the work then returned as soon as he could for our convenience. We couldn't be present for much of the time but he accomplished everything alone including moving furniture and taking great care to cover our possessions. Excellent job.

Hall redecoration.
Ian painted and papered our hall. On his first visit he was able to recommend a plasterer to re board and plaster the ceiling before the decoration job started. He gave us a price for the job and an estimated start time which we were able to firm up once other works were completed. He discussed paints with us & advised where necessary. Whilst other works were ongoing he kept in touch by email. Communication was excellent. He arrived on time, completed the work to a good standard and kept to time schedule and budget. We would happily recommend him.

Exceptional Decorator
A very professional decorator with considerable expertise. Communication was very good and a quote was given before work commenced. The timescale for the job was kept to and there was flexibility on start times to fit in with family life. Good arrangements were made for an extra trader to help with the removal of a radiator. The quality of the work completed was to a high standard and cleanliness of the areas worked in was good and all areas were kept tidy especially at the end of the day. We are very pleased with the areas decorated and would thoroughly recommend.

Home Office Decoration
I would highly recommend Ian - he did a wonderful job re-decorating our home office including wallpapering, emulsion and woodwork. He was always on time and left his work area very neat and tidy at the end of the day. Neat finish to all aspects of the decorating, and you could tell he was highly skilled with years of experience! We were so impressed we have asked for him to quote other jobs in our house.

Problem lounge ceiling
Ian quoted us promptly after been referred by a friend. He arrived on time, did an excellent repair job on a cracked ceiling after water damage. The finish is so good the repair is nearly invisible. A proper expert tradesman. He even gave some free advice and filled some cracks on a wall we are going to decorate.

Thorough and sensible work
A small section of the lounge ceiling had been taken down to locate a leak. Ian agreed to the minimum disturbance of the rest of the ceiling. He did a perfect repair, matching the Artex pattern and painting the whole ceiling, sticking to his original estimate. Nobody will ever notice that a repair has been done. He took care to leave the absolute minimum of mess. It turned out that a wall unit that I had put up was insecure. He helped me take it down and gave me some better wall plugs to help me make a better job of putting it back. Ian was a pleasure to deal with. I will certainly use him again.

Interior decoration.
Ian visited us and provided a comprehensive and reasonable quotation for the complete decoration of our Hall, Landing and Stairs. This involved 15 doors and frames, both sides, all 6 panel doors and 5 having borrowed lights. The staircase also had a high well, ceiling and walls were all painted with high quality emulsion and woodwork was all done with Dulux undercoat and gloss. All this decoration was done with a high level of care and professionalism, which we were extremely happy with and had no worries relating to security etc. Ian was extremely pleasant and we have already asked him to return and do more decorating and also asked him to quote for our daughters house. We have no hesitation to recommend Ian Birmingham

Ian was very professional, punctual, clean & tidy, and did an excellent job of all our exterior white woodwork, he stained our soffits and facias and painted the outside render. He even offered advice that was not part of the job. My wife and I are delighted with him and his work and at a reasonable cost. I cannot recommend Ian highly enough.

Ian did what he said he’d do, complete decorating of walls and woodwork, even changing one of the colours at the last moment. He turned up on time and left the flat clean and tidy; a good tradesman and a gentleman! I would have no hesitation recommending him.

Prompt, professional & good value.
Ian did a great job with our hall, stairs, landing and small bedroom. He started on the agreed date, was on time every day, always clean and tidy, and was very easy to have around. He was especially helpful in changing one of our wall colours mid-way through, and still completed the work on time to a high standard. We’ll ask him to quote for future work and have no hesitation in recommending him.

Ian has decorated all the rooms in my house. It has all been done to a very high standard. Some of the walls were in a very poor state. Ian's repairs to these has been excellent and I defy anyone to find where he had to repair them. I feel very fortunate to have found Ian.

Outstanding tradesman! Excellent job!
Good painters and decorators are hard to find, excellent ones almost impossible! So when Mr Birmingham was recommended to me by a neighbour I immediately rang him. The next day he came to quote for painting the outside of the house. I was very impressed with his prompt and professional response. He gave me a very acceptable estimate and timetable while making positive and helpful suggestions. I could not be more delighted with the job he has done! His painting is superb. His working environment always neat and tidy. His preparation thorough. He has now started work on the inside of the house. I would recommend Mr Birmingham unreservedly for the quality of his work, for his thorough, efficient service and his professional yet friendly manner
