Mark came to my flat in March to price the job, and we agreed on a price which seemed fair and a start date in July. We exchanged messages over the coming months just to check everything was on track. Mark turned up at around 7:30 am every morning and worked conscientiously and competently until about 4:30 pm, only taking about a 30-minute break around 11 am. I found him very approachable, respectful in my home, and easy to talk to. He would give me a chat at the end of the day to discuss the work completed and the planned work for tomorrow. He took great pride in his work and carried it out with method and skill. I actually chose him initially because he was a Which trader with positive reviews. I am so glad I did. Any customer who engages Mark will have peace of mind on the job and a positive outcome at completion. I do not hesitate to recommend him.

Fantastic job on exterior of property

Mark is a real professional. From the initial viewing to give a quote to the final strokes with his paintbrush. He came earlier in the year to give a very good quote citing that he would do the work when the weather was better. Keeping in touch he came at the beginning of one of the recent heatwaves (always arriving at the appointed time) but this didn't stop him from doing as much as he could until the heat was too intense - he still did at least 4 hours work on the days when the sun was really blazing down. He made good all the cracks and repaired plaster/concrete work that needed doing, rubbing down the wooden parts and applied two coats of paint to all parts of the exterior of my property making sure to "cut in" around the numbers etc. I highly recommend Mark for all your decorating needs and will happily welcome him back when I need further work doing. He kept to his very competitive quote (financial and time) and even charged less than the quote for the materials used. He always cleared up any mess made - a really good job. If you need any decorating done then please get in touch with Mark but do not expect him to be able to do it very soon as he is clearly very busy as he is so good. My house now looks great!!! Thank you Mark for a great job well done.

Professional Internal and External Full House Redecoration

I found Mark via Which TrustedTrader and I have to say his work was absolutely exemplary. We are incredibly pleased with the finish both internally and externally on our 3 bedroom home. Mark certainly has an eye for perfection and went above and beyond for us, not only with regard to the painting job but becoming good friends with both us and our pet dog Flint in the time he spent at our home! He did an excellent job, fully prepping the surfaces, painting inside and out including all woodwork, walls, ceilings, kitchen and bathrooms, water pipes and windowsills, and even returning to do some touch-ups after carpets were fitted in our very dated home. Mark provided all the materials he needed himself after we had chosen our colours and made the entire process as easy as possible. Mark worked very hard too, putting in long hours, even at weekends to get it done quickly. We plan to get him to do any future decoration work and have already recommended him to others in the area.

Mark was recommended to me by a very good plasterer who has worked for me before. Mark gave me a competitive price for the full redecoration of a 3-bed house. I would rate Mark 10/10 for his work. He goes the extra mile, pays attention to detail and takes care in what he does. Mark worked very hard on my job, putting in long hours to get it done quickly. I plan to get him to do my future decoration work.

Mark came in person for the initial visit, so that he could properly assess what preparation was needed and discussed what we wanted. He then gave a quote and expected time frame which was adhered to. He did an excellent job, fully prepping the surface of exterior wood and also restored the interior wooden floor by careful sanding before applying the specialist oils/paint, which we supplied. When there was a slight problem with the oils drying , he fully researched the solution and came back to fix it and did not take payment till we were fully happy. It all looks great inside and out, and he is a proper professional tradesman that you can trust to decorate your place with care and attention. He starts early and works hard, is quiet and unintrusive and just gets on with it! He has plenty of work on, but we have already asked him to quote on more work that needs doing!

Mark did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. He made helpful suggestions when quoting and everything was done within the planned schedule and budget. We were impressed by the care he took with some parts of the window frames that had deteriorated. We look forward with confidence to his redecorating our lounge in the autumn.

The whole experience from our initial conversation with Mark to completion of the work was handled very professionally. Mark was very easy to speak to and carefully detailed our requirements. He was very accommodating regarding our availability and the completion of the work. Both Mark and his colleague Barry were meticulous in their work, friendly and polite. A thoroughly professional and job very well done, which has transformed the outside of our house We have arranged for them to do some other decorating.

Mark repaired an internal wall that had been damaged by water and then painted the room in my chosen colour. The work was completed promptly and the room was kept clean as it was progressing. I am very satisfied and will use this trader again.

Mark redecorated the living and dining area, lobby, stairs and landing for us. He has done an excellent job within the time he gave for completing the work. He was always punctual and polite, was flexible with dates and made a number of helpful suggestions as to how we could achieve the desired end result. We can highly recommend him.

Mark’s 100% excellent reviews led us to select him for our required work. Our first impressions of him were that he was most courteous, professional, informative and knowledgeable and we had no hesitation in asking him to completely redecorate our spare bedroom, which involved removing all the ghastly wood chip paper, filling, lining the walls and completely painting them and the woodwork. Right from the start we knew we had made the right choice. Mark was punctual, thorough, skilful, careful and precise. He was relaxed, friendly and especially helpful. The work was completed to a very high standard and we were extremely delighted by the room’s transformation. We would have absolutely no hesitation in using Mark again and I particularly recommend him to anyone who needs a super, highly-skilled decorator. He is first-class.
