Highlights

"Dave decorated my whole house: 2 bedroom, lounge and living room, hall, staircase, kitchen & bathroom. He was quick to respond to my request for a quote and came round to give me a quote which was very transparent. I was very happy with his work. He was very friendly, punctual, tidy and good in communicating with me re. how work was progressing. I have no hesitation in recommending him for impeccable painting & decorating work. Thank you Dave! 🙏🏼"

"Very professional. Listened and understood my requirements. Site prepared with care and left very clean and tidy. Great job completed well on time. Very happy customer. I have no hesitation in recommending David."

"Arrived on time everyday and completed the work to a high standard in good time as we are preparing to sell the property. Would highly recommend!"

Smart checks

Before you hire a builder

Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.

Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.

Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.

Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.

Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
