Ian Day Decorators Limited

I am so pleased with the job Ian’s team did refreshing the exterior of my 3 storey semi. The job included all timber windows, doors, pebble dash and some rotted wood fascia’s. His decorators Tony and Ben really took great care in their work and respected me and my home by arriving on time, letting me know daily which areas they would be doing and quietly working and cleaning up everyday. I even ran errands and felt comfortable to leave my home in their care whilst out. Ian managed everything perfectly from start to finish with great communication and regular on-site visits. The standard of finishing is very impressive and the house looks crisp and like new again. I couldn’t ask for a more considerate, trustworthy team and will be singing their praises to anyone looking for decorators. When the time comes, I’ll definitely ask them to do the inside too. Excellent work and very fair rates.

Ian and his team did a phenomenal job. I went on holiday but needed to get the place redecorated as it was a rental and left Ian and his team to do the work. When I came back the work was really good, and the site had been cleaned to a high standard. Ian’s quote was competitive. Ian also helped me match the existing wall colour in the property which worked out really well as I was painting the hallway but not the rooms. The work was done within the agreed schedule and budget. Ian is professional and very helpful. Communication was very good.

Ian Day Decorators provided us with the highest standard of workmanship. They completely re-decorated our living space and we are delighted with the result. What really stands out for us is the attention to detail at every step of the process and the care taken to respect the space they work in. To top it all Ian and Luke are a delight to have around! All this for a fair price. Full marks.

The quote was the most reasonable of the Which Trusted Traders I approached. Ian was a pleasure to deal with - there quickly to quote, always responsive to subsequent questions, helpfully flexible about the use of paint that I had specified for the double glazed wooden windows, full of good advice and clearly well-organised. We had hoped to get the work underway sooner but they are a busy firm - a testament to the quality and value of their work I think - and I can see why it might have been hard to meet every client's expectations. Ben and Tony carried out the work to decorate the exterior of the house. I could have set my watch by when they turned up each day, always on time and ready to start at 8. Their preparation was thorough and they made good progress on a job that wasn't entirely straightforward. They went the extra mile in several areas, thoroughly repairing doors that others might have considered beyond hope, ensuring that the areas outside the house were left tidy each day and that it was literally spotless by the time they had finished. They were good at talking to us when the need arose but clearly knew what was expected of them from the outset and got on with the work. The whole job took c. 15 working days, about what I would have expected. Overall an excellent experience with a firm I'd be happy to use again.

I used Ian Day's company service for first time to decorate an integral renovation of kitchen, dining, lounge, and stairs. Ben and Toni did a brilliant job, very neat painting, and always tidy. In every step of the job, they showed their skills and professionalism. In addition, they were friendly, trustworthy, and completed everything on time. We are pleased with their work and love the final result. We will definitely use them again and would happily recommend them to anyone.

We live in a one-bedroom flat and had asked Ian to quote for painting and decorating our bedroom and hall, We quoted for the work in November 2022 and we did tell him we would not want it done until August 2023 to which he agreed. He came to collect the keys a few days before we went away and went through the work to be done. He offered to move the heavy furniture out of the bedroom but declined saying I would do it myself. Also, any screws that were in the wall should be left in situ. When his team had completed the work he emailed a couple of photos to show what had been done. The work has been completed to a high standard and the bedroom and hall left clean and tidy. He has quoted for our diner/living room which we will have done in May next year. I would, without hesitation recommend him to anyone who asked.

This was the first time we have used Ian Day Decorators Ltd and we were very impressed with the standard of the work that was carried out. Luke took gave great care and attention to his tasks and we are extremely pleased with the outcome. We will certainly be engaging this company again.

Hall, stairs and landings, including twelve doors. Paul did an excellent job, preparation was meticulous and the standard of work was very high. A very tidy workman who always arrived by 7.30 am and happy to leave him if we needed to go out.

Multi generation business that works to high standards with first class results Ian suggested the best paints to use as I needed a tough washable product. The area was the hall, stairs landing, and stairs up to the loft, seven doors and a dado rail. The area was in dire need of a facelift, there was a lot of making good required. Paul tackled the preparation and whole project with an eye for detail and snagged any minor areas along the way. The result was perfect. Paul and Luke were tidy and professional making the whole process seamless. Job competed on time. Fair price

Ian Day had great reviews and appeared very professional when he visited to give us a quote. He assured us that the carpets would be covered and protected before starting the work. This was also confirmed in the quote. We agreed a date to commence 6th July. On this date, his employee turned up with a very dirty stained dust sheet, a step ladder and 2 wallpaper scrapers. He told us that he had not been told that he needed to cover anything. My husband called Mr Day who said he would send someone else to cover everything as agreed and his workman left. When my husband called him in the afternoon he didn’t answer. Shortly later he received a text from Ian Day saying he wasn’t coming back to do the job. No explanation, no reason. We waited for 4 months and turned down 2 other decorators. We have now been left in the lurch in probably the busiest time of the year to find another decorator. We chose him based on reviews on the site and are extremely disappointed at his lack of professionalism and reliability. We would definitely never recommend him we have no idea what his work is like as we never saw it as he wasted our time.
