Work of high quality bang on time

The task was to redecorate our 4 bedroom 1890s townhouse (with the exception of one small room) over three and a half weeks. KAB achieved this with minimum fuss and to a high standard. We are very pleased with the end result. They were punctual throughout and were willing to put in the extra half hour where necessary. They worked hard throughout the three weeks At each stage they consulted us on our requirements and explained what they planned to do. Where the odd difficulty arose, KAB discussed with us the nature of the problem and suggested ways of solving, it which were effective in each case. They were very personable throughout and where they considered we might have difficulty making all areas of each room as accessible as possible, they offered very helpful support. On the day after completion they made an additional brief visit to ensure we were satisfied with their work and offered to put finishing touches to things we might have spotted overnight. Should the occasion arise, we would not hesitate to make KAB our first choice in the future.

I wanted to thank Keith and his son Jensen for their great work repairing the frames of my bay window and painting the entire bay window of my living room. They were proactive, courteous, punctual and professional, delivered great quality work, and went above and beyond when they spotted unexpected issues with one of my window panels to fix them. I won't hesitate to use them again and recommend them to my connections. Anouck

KAB painted our wooden sash windows, along with some external painting to our house and did a lovely job. The painting looks great and is a big improvement. Keith and Jensen were professional, courteous, punctual and tidied up after each days work. The work was of a high standard and we would certainly recommend them to others.

We had them round to refurbish our sadly deteriorated outside facias/soffits. Keith came round and quickly provided a quote. They always get good reviews and word of mouth soon travels so they were not due to be available for several weeks. As it turned out, poor weather gave them an opportunity to do our smaller job much sooner. We were so pleased that we had chosen KAB Decorating Services. Keith and his son Jason patiently dealt with the intermittent rainy conditions, and did a thorough job of preparing the woodwork, then applying quality exterior paints. We have ended up with a very professional finish, which highlights the poor condition of the adjoining neighbours’ facias. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they included clearing the gutters out while they were on the ladders. Apart from doing a professional job, and clearing up each day, they are lovely people who are easy to deal with. Thank you, Keith and Jason.

Keith & his son Jenson recently painted the outside of my house plus two bedrooms. The front of my house was in a really bad state & Keith & Jensen prepared it very thoroughly, before painting. Wallpapering was involved in one of the bedrooms which Keith undertook very carefully & the result was amazing! Their work on my house was altogether of a high standard & I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Keith & Jensen were professional, courteous & very pleasant to have around. They were also punctual, kept to their original quote & tidied up after each days work. A great team!

KAB Decorating Services have just completed painting the outside of our three storey late Victorian terraced house. Following a competitive quote they organised some very tidy scaffolding and did a thorough job of preparing the woodwork and repairing two stone sills that needed more attention than we anticipated. The quality of the finished paintwork is excellent. Keith and his son were very professional, good communicators, and a pleasure to work with.

Keith and his son painted the internal wooden frames of our windows which needed a freshen up. I found it easy to schedule the work. Keith provided a competitive quote which represented very good value for money considering what our builders were quoting us as part of a much bigger job. Everything went well and we were very pleased with the work. I would not hesitate to recommend and am going to ask for a quote for another job that is on the cards very soon.

House Transformed!

The décor in our town house was distinctly old and jaded; varnish/paintwork discoloured, rusty radiators, cracked plaster etc. We identified the local decorators who were Which? Trusted Traders and approached KAB for a quote. We met Keith, who completely understood our requirements and the work involved, and had no hesitation in accepting that. In three weeks, the agreed work was completed to schedule and at estimated cost. Keith and his son Jensen had completely transformed our interior. On all counts their work was excellent. Along with achieving a very high standard for the finished product, they were always punctual, courteous and sociable, and took pains to minimise the inevitable disruption. Some specialist plumbing and electrical work was required and carried out to a high degree of satisfaction. Keith organised all this through his network of proficient tradesmen. What impressed us as the work progressed, was KAB’s desire to get the final product right by frequently discussing with us, the pros and cons of alternatives where choices had to be made; often guiding us gently to the correct option! We hope to use KAB in future and have no hesitation in recommending them on all aspects of their workmanship!

Keith and his son did a very professional job on the repairs, preparation and painting of the front of my Victorian house. The wooden sash windows and the stone sills needed a lot of repair work using a resin filler. As I wasn’t present at the house Keith took the trouble to send me photos of the preparation and work required prior to doing the repairs. He was also happy to discuss the work and the proposed repairs with my partner, giving practical advice which reflected his knowledge and experience. He replied to messages promptly and I quickly came to realise that, if he said he would do something, he could be relied upon to do it. Both he and his son clearly take pride in their work, are knowledgeable, considerate and helpful. I would definitely use their services again.

Keith and his son Jason decorated our hall and stairs. They did a really good job and offered help and advice. They took in their stride some extra work that we wanted and worked on a Saturday, which was very kind. The painting and prep had not been done well before, but they have transformed it. They are both lovely people and very polite and thoughtful. They hoovered and cleared regularly. Impressed. Hoping they will be back for other decorating jobs. Highly recommend.
