A brilliant job

Having been let down in the past by a number of tradespeople, Steve has been such a breath of fresh air. He was quick to give a quote - which was thorough, well considered and realistic. He also gave a clear indication of when he could start and stuck to it - so we could plan accordingly. Both Steve and Vic are professional, a pleasure to have around and real perfectionists. They have done a wonderful job redecorating our entire house and both my husband and I are delighted with the results. Have now asked Steve to come back and paint the outside! Thoroughly recommended.

Steve did a wonderful job decorating our hall and lounge. Over a period of nearly 3 weeks, 20 years of neglected paintwork was transformed with care and attention to detail. It was a pleasure to have Steve and Vic in our home - by the end it was like having family around. Looking forward to having them back in Spring to do the outside work.

Steve and his team did a great job decorating our hall stairs and landing, which is a big job as we live in a townhouse. It was completed to a high standard, on time and was reasonably priced. We found him on this site and all our communications with him were professional and friendly. We felt comfortable to ask him to do the work whilst we were on holiday, so we trusted him with our home and our cat ! Because of this we wouldn't hesitate to ask him back again or recommend him to our friends.

They are willing to give help and advice when asked. They are extremely reliable and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

I contacted Steve after seeing the reviews here, he came out to see me within a few days to do a quote and I received it quickly. Steve told me from the beginning that he was fully booked and it would be a few months before he could start, for me that was fine and I was happy for him to fit me in as and when he could do a room. He came to do my bedroom, which required some papering, coving, picture rail and decorating. To say I'm delighted with the result is an understatement, the whole thing was completed in 2.5 days and looks beautiful, definitely worth the wait. The gloss work is so smooth and the paintwork exceptional and Steve made sure everything was done to your satisfaction. I would definitely recommend Steve, you will get a job well done! I can't wait until he does the other rooms.

Steve Campbell did a very satisfactory job redecorating a kitchen. His work was thorough and came in a little below estimate. He was easy to talk to about minor problems where they occurred (as they usually do) and fully cooperative. He was pleasant and worked continuously. He helped me in a minor job which was not included in the quotation. I would certainly ask him to come again when the need arises a 5 star rating is well deserved.

Its always difficult to find a tradesman to do a particular job for you if you don't have a recommendation to fall back on. I needed somebody to do the woodwork and the paintwork on the outside of the house before the winter weather really set in. In the past I have tried using the trust a trader site and been let down by people either not turning up or turning up and then not following up their visit by sending me the quotation for the work discussed. Then I tried Which? Trusted Trader site for the first time leaving a message for Steve to call me back which he did very quickly and then followed up fast by a visit to my home. Right from our initial meeting I could tell that Steve was a very honest genuine person and very easy to talk to. He sent me a quotation as promised which I accepted and he started the work on schedule as promised and even managed to finish the job earlier than expected as the weather kindly co-operated and he had one of his colleagues with him for the final couple of days. A very professional job which I am really very happy with. Steve proved me right on my first impressions. He is genuine, honest and trustworthy and very reliable turning up when he says he will. He and his team work really hard and to a very high professional standard. It was a pleasure to deal with Steve and I would have no hesitation in using him again or recommending him to anyone! Thanks Steve, A good job well done!

Steve has just painted the exterior of my house. He was recommended by family and neighbours, so I was already confident that the job would be excellent. From the initial meeting to the final brush of paint, everything went well and, as good quality materials were used, and all surfaces were prepared patiently and properly, it will be many years before the paintwork will need re-doing. Steve is punctual, tidy, trustworthy and a pleasure to have around. Needless to say he is 100% recommended.
