Mr. Peter Ellson is a professional decorator, who has clearly demonstrated his ability to deliver a fantastic job, which was on time, on budget and quality that far exceeded our expectations. His work ethic was witnessed by our neighbours who have taken his business cards to pass on through the neighbourhood forum and one neighbour has instructed Mr. Elllson to carry out a decorating job. We would strongly recommend this very proud decorator who applies his trade with passion, displays the right attitude and is prepared to do the extra without charging you anymore. Although I would have happily paid more, given the quality. We will be using Mr. Ellson hereon has our only chosen decorator. We do not believe there is any other decorator out there that would deliver to the same standards shown by Mr. Ellson. Thank you Checkatrade and Mr. Ellson. Ps. We have not endorsed a trades person before, this is the first time we have been absolutely convinced of the quality delivered and the results that are self-evident.
