S C Campbell's Decorating Services

Asked Mr Campbell to quote for two jobs because of Trusted Trader status and excellent reviews. He rang back promptly and arranged to come round. Steve took the time to discuss the options with us and sent prices quickly. We felt these were very reasonable, and within a fortnight he was able to give us a starting date for the kitchen/lobby. Strip wallpaper from small lobby, repaint woodwork there, make good surfaces in kitchen and repaint walls and ceilings throughout. Steve was courteous and easy to have around, important as we were at home all the time. We were very pleased with the work he did and have asked him to schedule our second job (redecorate landing and bathroom).

Steve and Vick were extremely professional and also helped us make good decisions, such as wall paper and matching colour. We had three rooms decorated and all work was undertaken to a very high standard. On time and punctual, very tidy. Highly recommend.

Steve was punctual, easy to work with and did a good job for a fair price. The work involved preparation and painting of woodwork, render and gutter.

Steve and his co-worker painted the exterior wood work, masonry, and garage doors of my 2 storey house. The original quote detailed all the work, specified how surfaces would be prepared, and named the products to be used. I found this very useful in choosing Steve to do the job, and was very pleased with the finished work. Steve and Vic were both very easy to work with, being friendly and helpful, offering suggestions and advice. They even painted a few extras that I hadn't specified as they 'had some paint left'! Communication was good, and they arrived promptly each day. I am delighted to have found Steve, and have no hesitation in recommending him, he did a brilliant job.

Steve has recently painted the outside of my house and garage. He helpfully organised the scaffolding and used this to ensure the best finish in his work. In addition to the agreed project Steve identified issues with my garage doors and has addressed these. On request he also mended some guttering. Steve was always punctual and polite and he tidied up at the end of each day. I am very happy with the work which has been completed and with Steve's willingness to look at other issues and seek solutions. I would not hesitate to use Steve for future projects.

The job was to paint the refresh the exterior of a two storey house (soffits, fascias and masonry) which had been neglected for some time. Lots of fiddly woodwork and parts challenging to access due to height and various obstructions. Work was done very efficiently and to a very high standard, with the soffits and fascias looking like they were new when done. Punctual, communicative, considerate and friendly throughout. Went the extra mile in removing guttering when roofers did not turn up. From getting the quote to tidying up afterward, the good price, a great experience all round. Highly recommended!

Stephen had previously worked for me a couple of months earlier and I was pleased with the work he carried out. He paid two more visits to me again, first towards the end of March, to prime and seal my landing ceiling and to strip the wallpaper off on a section of the wall that had got damp and discoloured, due to the continued rain we have been having. He came again on 22nd April, to paint over the sealed landing ceiling, and to put new wallpaper down. He did an excellent job and at the end, negotiated a very reasonable price. He is extremely pleasant and put me at my ease when I expressed concerns about the work, and very easy to contact on the phone. He will ring back more or less straight away if he isn't available at the time of my phone call to him.

Steve and his colleague Vick recently painted our ceiling after it had been replaced. They also repaired some of the wallpaper that had been damaged during the ceiling removal. Vick did a fantastic job of cleaning up the line between the existing wallpaper and the new coving which had was now slightly higher than the old ceiling. He also repainted two of the walls and the wood around the window seat. Steve was unfazed with our request for them to use a completely VOC free paint. They even came back to rectify a problem the builder had made with the coving. Overall we were very pleased and will definitely use them again for any future decorating work.

Steve painted my landing ceiling, removed wallpaper, and re-wallpapered a couple of walls on my landing. While he was in the process of removing the wallpaper from one of the walls, some plaster came loose. Steve was completely unfazed by this, and calmly applied fresh plaster, allowing it to dry, before applying the fresh wallpaper. He was extremely pleasant and easy to talk to about the job I needed done and put me at ease. He was fast and just took one day to complete a really lovely job. I will have no hesitation in asking him back for other decorating jobs I may have in the future.

This was the first time we used Steve and we would definitely use him again. He was always on time and the work was done to a very high standard. We would highly recommend using his services.
