Nigel is an incredible painter and decorator. His level of detail to communication, his level of detail to his work and the level of deatil to the after care is, in our opinion levels ahead of others in this field. We are incredibly happy and with our decoration, the room is another level and his ability to offer unique elements to give your property a personal touch is remarkable.

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for SwanDecor, including the highlights above. The 4 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Nigel is one of a kind and a real specialist of his trade. Having just painted, decorated and tiled two properties for me (both listed and particularly challenging) I cannot fault his knowledge, attention to detail, work ethic, flexibility and commitment. In addition, he is a lovely person to have around; trustworthy, friendly, conscientious, tidy and honest. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
Having used Nigel's services previously to redecorate an area on the staircase landing, I was more than happy to contact him again to assess an area in an alcove in the entrance hall that had suffered from water penetration. As a result the lining paper had lifted and the surface of the plaster beneath had lost its key and was loose and crumbling. Having removed the loose plaster, the wall surface was repaired/re-plastered and once it had dried it was re-papered and painted. The result was a super job with the repaired area matching the original.
