Flat consists of: Lounge: 4.11 x 3.52m Bedroom one: 3.27 x 3.05m Bedroom two: 4.05 x 2.24m Kitchen: 2.95 x 1.80m Bathroom: 1.90 x 1.90m Plus small hallway Natural hessian or magnolia matt paint required throughout. Some touching up of walls may be required as flat has been rented out. Skirting boards to be repainted with white wood paint. Many thanks
We were in a different city to the job, so we had to rely on Eric to manage the work; including liaising with letting agents to pick up keys etc. He did this very well, always did what he said he would, and was always trustworthy. We went up to meet Eric at the end of the job and he's clearly a very professional and likeable person. He finished on time and to a very high standard and we have no reservations in recommending him to friends and family in the future.

Repaint of living room in terraced apartment in Central Edinburgh. Room is approx 17'x12'. One wall is currently wallpapered and may either require stripping or may be painted over. Also require cornices to be repainted as part of a general refresh. All surfaces are in good condition.
Really pleased with the work undertaken by Kenny. A great guy who provides genuine quality and value for money. Will definitely get my vote for any future work.

The large living room in our Old Town flat needs completely re-decorating. It needs lined (including ceiling) and painted. It has a cornice, dado and shutters (3 large sash windows) and we want someone who is experienced in detailed work, preferably in old properties. I have no idea what the cost might be so have picked a budget almost at random.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Walter, John and the lads. They had a big task - the room hadn't been touched for more than 20 years. There was a lot of preparatory work to be done - the woodwork especially needed attention, inside and out. They were prompt, reliable and pleasant to be around and they took a lot of trouble with our detailed requirements. Occasional bacon rolls were much welcomed!

This is an property currently for sale and needs a freshen up - lounge, dining room, hallways and 2 bedrooms
What a mess they have left behind - carpets will need replacing - did not use adequate dust sheets to protect the carpets or furniture - got a valuable table covered in paint and then scratched the surface removing it - asked for same colour to freshen up - used a different colour which would have been ok if they had not left a recess undone - so now very obvious the miss match in colours - Did not bring own ladders etc - DO NOT USE for any painting work

Paint external windows and make good areas where timber sills have rotted.
Raymond did a fantastic job at repairing and painting the windows in my flat. He was able to salvage them when others said they couldn't be! He took great pride in what he did and it showed in the end result. My home was left very tidy each day, and Raymond was always on time and very friendly. I would use him again and recommend him to family and friends.
