Brilliant job of wallpapering around a stone fireplace! Would highly recommend & have back again. Nice & polite chap!
Very impressed. Good clean job, highly recommended.
Excellent high standard finish.
Ray Borg has recently completed two jobs for us. One was external, re-painting a porch together with its decorative arch. The latter was peeling badly and looked very shabby. Ray and his colleague prepared the job with the utmost thoroughness and the finished work is excellent. The other task was re-painting the interior walls of a recently-refurbished conservatory. New plasterwork had to be prepared and door and window frames re-painted. We are completely delighted with the result. Ray insists on working to the highest standard. No short cuts here! He and his colleague worked tirelessly to finish the work on time, with the minimum of disruption to us. They left everything neat and tidy. We strongly recommend their work.
Ray Borg and Ryan care about what they do. I had the whole intenal part of the house painted and the external part too and now the house looks amazing. The workmanship, reliability and timekeeping, tidiness and courtesy was perfect. The whole job was completed to a very high standard and would recommend them to anyone. You cannot go wrong employing these decorators.
Ray returned my enquiry quickly. He and Ryan visited to provide a price and gave me some very good advice about some decorating issues I've had. They visited before Christmas to do part of the job and returned in January to complete it (this suited us, and is how we planned it). The problem areas are no longer a problem because Ray knew what the cause was (a different decorator years ago hadn't managed this). Ray then gave us a price for another job and he completed this on Feb 2nd, as arranged. Ray is happy to advise about colours, and the best products for the required finish. He is always prompt and his communication was very much appreciated as it is something that is really important to me. Would I use Ray and Ryan again? Yes. They are coming back in the next few months to paint our kitchen once it has been completed.
Fantastic service from start to finish, fantastic price. The finish on the decorating is the best I've ever seen. Fast and reliable, will definitely be using Ray again for the rest of my house. Thank you so much.
Needed a specialist to be able to hang a mural in the living room we had chosen, from his reviews it looked like Ray had experience of doing them. From first contact Ray was very professional, friendly and quoted for the job. All work was undertaken, preparing the wall and when a problem arose with the mural explained what was needed as he wanted it to be perfect, and what the paper company had provided was not right. Second mural ordered and Ray came back and work was completed. Excellent workmanship, clean, tidy and good attention to detail. Very friendly and hard working. Excellent time keeping and easily to contact. Perfect job done, highly recommend.
Arrived as agreed, discussed what was to be done and commenced without delay. Freely discussed the shade of one of the colours that was not exactly as I had asked for, but it was agreed to use it. Turned out to be O.K. Kept me informed as to what he was doing and going to do. Tidied up before he left. Ray was a very pleasant person to deal with and I would not hesitate to use him again and also recommend him to friends.
Ray and Ryan came to decorate our lounge/dining room. Ray’s recommendation of Wallrock paper to cover the hairline cracks was a good idea. The guys were polite and tidy. They willingly came back to sort some snags. They take a real pride in their work and wanted us to be 100% happy. We are very pleased with the end result.
I brought in Ray to decorate the hallway and stairs in my house. He and Ryan have done a really good job. Everything was on time, all the finishes are really well done, and they've done a good job cleaning up. They've also provided advice and contacts for the other work I've got going on at the moment. Excellent work.
Ray stripped, lined and painted our lounge and dining room. The work was completed to a high standard and on time. He re-lined one wall that we and he were disappointed with and we are very pleased with the results. He replied very quickly to our initial contact and provided a lot of useful advice.
Very experienced knowledgeable decorator, gave solid advice. The painting was immaculate and professionally carried out. A very thorough job. Ray is friendly and a very clean tidy worker. I can’t recommend him highly enough. So pleased with the beautiful results.
Ray was very accommodating and worked around my holiday an some appointments. His partnership the painting. Great job on a very old property. Cleaned up when they finished.
Ray was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. He responded quickly and turned up when he said he would. He gave me a fair quotation and then did absolutely everything he said he’d do. Great quality job, and Ray and Ryan were lovely to have around and kept the noise down without being asked while we were working. Couldn’t have asked for more.
We are extremely pleased with the work Ray and Ryan did in our conservatory and sitting room. They are friendly and knowledgeable and they do a professional job. Ray and Ryan take great pride in and care about their work and that shows in the high standards that they achieve. It was a pleasure to have them in our home and we will be using them again in the future.
Great service from Ray and Ryan. Right from the initial contact did a thorough job and knew we were in safe hands. Communication was great and turned up on time. Made a fabulous job of the hallway even though it was a double-height drop and had some tricky bits. The mural in the sitting room looks absolutely amazing. So happy with the jobs, would definitely recommend and use again.
We had Ray and Ryan come to do a full house worth of decorating, multiple bedrooms, minor handyman work, and other parts. They were polite and professional, and kept us up to date about any changes or challenges that were offered. The standard of work is incredible, and we're both very pleased with what they've done for us. I cannot recommend them enough. Thanks guys.
Raymond and Ryan were very professional and helped us to make the right choices on what colours to choose. I can honestly say the finished product is outstanding. The great thing is the work has a guarantee for 12Months which gives me piece of mind. We will be using Raymond and Ryan again next year that’s how pleased I am with the finished product. You would be mad to use anyone else. I just want to say a great big thank you I absolutely love it . DEFINITELY RECOMMEND.
