Rob and his men papered and painted our hall, stairs & landing. Rob gave good advice before the job. They did a good job in just 4 days, by having 3 people working some days. They were all very pleasant, and worked in a tidy way. They gave good value for money & I recommend them.

I employed Rob and his team to paint the outside of my victorian semi. I was very impressed from the start by the thoroughness of their preparation before painting. Rotten areas of wood were replaced with great skill by Rob and his advice was most helpful. I was happy to leave them alone in the house. I am delighted with the final product and shall definitely use them again - as will my neighbours!

I have used them several times both inside and out, and found them very good. They are nice people, their work is excellent, they clean up after themselves very thoroughly, and I had no qualms about leaving them in the house.

I booked Rob to paint the exterior of my house, walls and woodwork and the price was reasonable for the work undertaken. He and his team of two were very friendly, arrived promptly each day and completed the job to a high standard. The job included stripping old paint and sanding down on exterior doors and woodwork around bay windows, including crenellations, and the bargeboards and gable. A window ledge that was discovered to be in a poor condition was completely repaired and restored. Prior to the work being carried out Rob kept us informed about when the scaffolding would be erected and the start date. Overall I am very pleased with the finished result.

Reasonable prices and very good quality of decorating. Always pleasant and trustworthy. Fitted in at times that suited us and always available on the phone. We had Rob recommended by a friend and have used the company on several occasions, we are always pleased with the work.

All work undertaken to a very high standard. Pleasant small team who, we felt, were totally trustworthy (e.g. when we were out). We have used them for decorating both inside and out, as have friends on our recommendation.
