This is the fourth time, Martin at A1 Decorating Services has done some painting and decorating work for me, and as always it has been exceptional. He is very diligent and prepared and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a painter/decorator.

Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for A1 Decorating Services, including the highlights above. The 135 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Carried out work to very good standard. Kept area very clean and tidy. I would highly recommend Martin for any painting work.
My bathroom was in desperate need of painting. The paint was pressing away from the ceiling and the walls were in desperate need of an update. Martin did an incredible job and took the time to properly seal the ceiling, something I wouldn’t have done if I did it myself. He did a great job, he was polite, on time and knew what he was doing. Would use again.
