Regency Professional Decorating Services

I am quite happy to send this feedback about our experience with Regency Professional Decorating Services during the period 2nd to 20th December 2010. Our home had suffered extensive damage to the ceiling and walls on the first floor from a leak in the loft, and more extensive damage to the hallway and living rooms from rising damp on the ground floor. We therefore needed a complete restoration in these areas in the short period before Xmas. We sought the help of Which? Local, who had helped us before, and got the details of several contractors, from whom we chose Regency. Paul Bennett, the main contractor was assisted by David Riley and they carried out the re-decoration with some additional part-time help. They attended punctually, worked diligently, cleanly and professionally during the period. The preparation was flawless, as was the finish and they offered constructive advice which we readily took. When they finished they went around and checked the work to ensure it was to our and also their satisfaction (such was the pride in their work!). We did not have to do any additional cleaning just replacement of furniture and fillings. The work was cost-effective and artistic. Pure value for money! There was the added bonus of their friendliness, willingness to please, and their humour all of which helped to minimise the effects of the disruption. We recommend Regency wholeheartedly to anyone who needs to do any decoration small or large. Choose them and you canÍt go wrong. Our thanks to Which? Local for providing the valuable resource of contractor listings that are much better than the Yellow Pages.

Highly recommended. Operates in Tufnell Park N19, as well as other areas of London. I have no connection with Paul Bennett, who runs Regency Decorating, other than as a satisfied customer. my wife and I engaged Mr Bennett to paint the outside of our three storey, five bedroom terraced house in Tufnell park N19. The exterior of the house had not been decorated for at least 25 years, so the wood and masonry surfaces needed a great deal of preparation. Regency have done an excellent and highly professional job - not stinting on careful and time consuming preparation and then applying several layers of high quality undercoat and paint. Paul and his colleagues have been a joy to have in the house during the three weeks the job took - cleaning up conscientiosly at the end of each day, and being a discreet and unobtrusive, but congenial presence. They gave us a quote and stuck to it (£6440 including VAT to decorate the whole exterior, back and front)- a very reasonable figure which compared well with other quotes we received. Although based in E17, they have done a number of jobs in and around our area of Tufnell Park, wich was how we found them (throgh a neighbour's recommendation).
