My daughter recently purchased a flat which had to be decorated throughout and needed to be done with some urgency. I have always done my own decorating but I am now of the age where it takes me longer to do and I find some jobs difficult. In all honesty I was dreading getting somebody in I did not know. So I turned to trusted traders and selected a few, Steve amongst them. Steve was the only one that provided me with a complete breakdown regarding labour and cost of materials. I contacted Steve and informed him of the situation I was in and to say he went out of his way to help would be an understatement. Steve arrived at my daughters flat and we went through everything in detail. Steve even worked weekends to help finish the job for us. Steve was punctual and did everything we asked. His work was excellent. We trusted him with the keys to the property and he left it clean and tidy when he had finished. Steve was a gem find and we will most certainly be using him again. I have no hesitation what so ever in recommending him. His estimate for the work carried out I felt was extremely reasonable. Thank you Steve.

Steve has recently decorated our hall, stairs and landing. He also did some external painting work for us. Steve consulted us throughout the work, and it was carried out to a high standard. He is a very friendly person, and we were happy to leave him in our home. We would certainly use him again, and have no hesitation in recommending him.

Steve stripped the wallpaper from our master bedroom and study; papered the walls; painted the walls; and painted/varnished the woodwork. He also repainted our downstairs bathroom ceiling to cover some water damage. The work took place over three weekends, which suited both our schedule and his; he was very accommodating to our needs and other commitments. We're very happy with the quality of the work; he was thorough and consultative, and we would be very happy to use him again.

Steve has just repapered our kitchen ceiling after water damage. He was willing to take on just the papering, which was the bit my arthritic shoulders put me off doing myself. I had to delay him a couple of times because of other problems, but he remained willing and amiable. He's now just finished quite an awkward job, in less than five hours start to finish, and to a very high standard. He is proffessional, a clean worker and very much the kind of person I am comfortable to have in my home. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Steve did some interior repair work for me to some water-damaged ceilings - quite awkward jobs but he made a fantastic job of it. Highly professional, friendly and leaves the place very clean at the end of the day. Can't recommend him enough!

Any concerns about using an unknown contractor were soon dispelled by SteveÔøΩs professional and reliable estimating ÔøΩ pointing out areas that I had missed and making sensible suggestions. There was some delay in starting the outside decorating but I was kept fully informed of when the work would start. It was completed in good time and to a high standard. Later he was back to do most of the interior again as scheduled and to a high standard. Everything you want in a contractor: reliable, professional, competent.

Booked Steve for outside decorating in early June and, because he is busy, we had to wait for mid September for him to start. He only needed a week for front and back, which I thought was pretty efficient, and he planned the work such that he could continue working in the dodgy weather. As everybody notes his work is tidy and clean. We have now booked him for a full two story hall decoration. (Note: Steve like's his tea very milky - almost latte! - no sugar, and like radio 4 so there is no tinny popular music from his radio!)
