Company Profile

M P Rapson Decorating was founded in 1990 following several years experience within a large Company where I worked my way up to supervisor before starting my own business.

My reputation has been built on a solid foundation of providing top quality workmanship and good communication at every stage of any works undertaken. I have 27 years experience in all aspects of Decorating and specialise in Wallcoverings and Exterior works having clients such as Interior Designers,Charity Organisations, Private Residential and Builder/Developers. Whether a job is large or small I can tailor a scheme/schedule to suit any client requirements. I can also organise other and associated trades if required in order to complete more complex projects and will always be respectful.

Painting.
Martin and his team are a professional group of painters who work to a very high standard. Their work is fantastic and they can work to very tight deadlines. They are happy to make any changes at the client's request and nothing is too much trouble. I would be happy to recommend this company.

Preparation and re-painting of kitchen

We had a problem with cracking paint, so Martin came in, sanded all the walls back and primed them before painting. He painted the ceiling and all the woodwork including the window frames. He even re-secured a radiator cover to the wall for me. He was very pleasant, arrived on time, worked hard, and was extremely tidy which is always a great quality to have in a trades person. I would recommend him totally. He was also very reasonably priced and didn't charge me a penny more than he had quoted.
