About

I have over 30 years of experience across a wide range of projects. I am based in Loughton, Essex, and much of my work is from regular clients, word of mouth and Which Local recommendations. Over the years, many projects have taken me further afield, including London, Suffolk, and Berkshire.

My key areas of expertise are painting and decorating, including wallpapering.

I enjoy the process of discussing and agreeing the best products and finishes to use, in order to achieve results that my clients will be delighted with.

Steve (and Vick) did a great job. Steve is very friendly and professional. He advised me on what types of paint he thought it best to use which was very useful. Furniture and carpet all protected well. The work was completed to a very high standard. I would not hesitate to use Steve again or recommend him. Thanks Steve!

Steve and Vick were brilliant, able to fit in the work (decorating internally 3 rooms in our flat) at relatively short notice. They spent a lot of time at the beginning ensuring all belongings and the rooms not being decorated were protected and covered in plastic. Then they regularly checked in to ensure they were doing it as we wanted. Hugely personable and really care about the quality of the job they are doing, and the flat and our wooden sash windows look like new! Wouldn't hesitate to ask them to do work in the future.

Steve did a great job painting our hallway. He is very professional and did a great job. He arrived on time, protected our carpets perfectly and left everywhere clean and tidy too.

Steve and Vic are reliable, honest and above all expert decorators. They did such a brilliant job with our bedrooms a few years ago that we called them back to do the rest of the house. Amazing, timely communication, very knowledgeable, gave us spot on quote and delivered an outstanding work. Even better results than we imagined. Would highly recommend for any decorating jobs.

Steve and his colleague undertook painting and decorating to our lounge and hallway. They arrived at the agreed time and worked hard but were always polite and easy to have around. They prepared well, taping and protecting all undecorated surfaces and their work was well executed and we are very pleased with the finished result. They finished ahead of schedule, left everywhere tidy and as the drying permitted returned most furniture back in place. The final invoice was exactly in line with the estimate.

We’ve just had our downstairs lounge finished and painted by Steve and the team and we are very happy, highly recommended. Steve popped around to give us a quote and then was able to book the job in quickly which was great. Vic did the finishing of the walls and painting and we are very happy with it. Really good finish even on some parts of the walls that had previously been a bit rough. Would definitely work with them again for future jobs.

We were looking for someone to paint the front of our Victorian terraced house and Steve came highly recommended. His quote was very reasonable, and we were delighted with the job he did for us - high quality and superb value. Steve and his colleague worked hard in very hot conditions and got the work done very quickly. They were friendly, punctual and tidied up very thoroughly at the end of each day. We are so pleased with the results - we've had so many compliments from neighbours. We'd absolutely recommend Steve to anyone looking for a high quality paint job and friendly service at an affordable price.

S. C. Campbell have just done the external redecoration of our Victorian house. It was a big job, and a lot of work. Steve was patient and helpful when I needed to change the start date, and when we had to have builders in to do some unexpected repairs that were discovered half way through. Vick worked dependably and solidly throughout and the work was done more thoroughly than it’s ever been done before. I’m thrilled with the result. The house looks absolutely beautiful and I know from the quality of the work that it will last a long time. The cost was very reasonable, too, so I’m delighted with all aspects of the job. I hope they’ll come back and do some interior decorations for us next year. Thank you so much Steve and Vick!

Our house was a sad peeling mess. External decoration was many years overdue. Steve and Vik have completely transformed the outside and have given our old wooden windows a new lease of life. We have received many admiring glances from passers by. Their preparation was thorough. They arrived punctually every morning concentrating only on our job. The job was completed within the time originally estimated and for the original estimate. There were some extra works recommended but these were reasonably costed and left entirely for us to decide whether or not to have them (we did and pleased we did). There were a couple of minor issues spotted after Steve had left but Steve came back the following day and they were sorted to our satisfaction without any quibble. Steve and Vik were very quiet and no trouble to have around. A piece of homemade cake and a cup of peppermint tea will keep Steve very happy. Overall we would have no hesitation in recommending Steve and we have booked him to do more decoration inside our house later in the year.
