R Read Decorators

I have used Rob and his team for over 12 years during which time they have painted both the exterior and interior of my house. Each time the work has been carried out to the highest standard, completed on time and at a fair price. I have recommended his services to several friends who have also been very pleased with his work.

Rob and Aidan have just painted the outside of our property and we are really pleased. They’ve done a great job, they are efficient, finished on time and really nice people. We will definitely use them again!

The fact I waited four months on the waiting list for quite a big job speaks volumes. It was well worth the wait. All the way from the initial quotation to the visit, Rob was professional and responsive. We have a large open plan living, dining and kitchen with high ceilings. The work required was a stain block to seal the nicotine and stains we inherited when we moved in, followed by two coats on all walls, ceilings and woodwork. The wall required repair in places, the attention to detail in preparation was next to none. The woodwork was properly sanded and caulked as required. They were clean and ensured everything was masked and dust-sheets throughout. They arrived on time throughout and ensured they checked our requirements throughout the job. They took me deciding that a couple of feature walls in a different colour just before they started on the first day all in their stride. They used professional paint and ensured they got a colour match to our requirements. I imagine they are not the cheapest available but it really is a case of you get what you pay for. The finish is immaculate and all down to the extensive preparation before painting and the care and attention throughout. I am now back on their waiting list for another job next year and cannot recommend highly enough.

A great job, thorough and care taken with filling, papering and painting. The team were all very pleasant, thank you to all of you. Jane

Rob's team painted my apartment including the living room, hallway, 2 bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. This was a full paint job i.e. walls, ceiling, skirting, window sills and doorframes. Great experience all around. Rob visited to scope the work and followed up with a competitive quote. His team were professional, turned up on time every day, and did a great job. Highly recommended and would definitely use again.

Rob and his team have just finished painting the exterior of our Victorian home. There was great communication from the beginning and the work carried out was to an excellent standard. The guys were all hardworking, friendly and very professional, we have been extremely pleased with the finished result and will definitely use them again. I would highly recommend them.

Rob responded promptly to my initial enquiry to paint and decorate 3 bedrooms. Rob and his team produced work of an extremely high standard and we are delighted with the results. The team arrived on time each day and cleared up efficiently before they left. We found them to be friendly, reliable and trustworthy and have no hesitation in recommending them.

Rob and his team redecorated our entire house while we were away, they did a top quality job and we are really happy with the work. The attention to detail is excellent and the quality of the paintwork is outstanding (e.g not a single drip / run to be seen on wooden bannisters). They left our house in perfect condition in terms of tidiness and were pleasant to deal with throughout. Many thanks to Rob and the team!

Can't recommend Rob and his team highly enough. This is the second time I've used his services and the attention to detail is excellent, the preparation is first class and the finish second to none. His team is made up of very talented people who are a pleasure to have around. I'd recommend you give him a try.

Rob and his crew completely repainted our flat. He was helpful and responded quickly to questions and we felt confident leaving him during the day to get on with the job. Helpful with moving furniture and did a good professional job

Rob and his team painted our new conservatory and tiled the floor. We are very pleased with how the work has turned out. This is the second time we have asked Rob to do some painting and decorating but our first experience of his tiling. He is now our go to tiler as well as painter. I thought the cost of the job was very reasonable and the work was carried out as per schedule. All involved were very friendly throughout.

I found Rob's firm through Which? Trusted Traders and was delighted with my choice. The hallway, bathroom and kitchen of my flat were damaged by a water leak from above, so a comprehensive redecoration job was needed. Two members of Rob's team took care of the painting work, which was completed to a high standard, and Rob himself did the hallway wallpaper hanging, with excellent results. I'm extremely pleased with the work and it was a pleasure to have Rob and his colleagues around. Their work is terrific, they left everything in good order, and the service was friendly and professional. Highly recommended.

We have used these decorators for many years as they always do a great job! Friendly, reliable, tidy and work to a very high standard. We are always pleased with what they do.

Work that was done many years ago still looks good today and recent work included great attention to detail to resolve a problem of mould to find a solution for the long term. Gets work done efficiently with minimum disruption. Highly recommended.

Used Rob yet again, as good as ever, this time occupied by Jamie who was a pleasure to have in the house, they were very helpful, tidy and trustworthy doing a excellent job with a fair price. What more do you want from tradespeople.
