Company info
A bit about me.
Hi, my name is Charlie. I started my career in Painting & Decorating in 2009 as a painter’s apprentice at age 17. As an apprentice I was lucky enough to spend time working with painters who were at the top of the industry and I gained invaluable knowledge and skills learning from them. I quickly picked up a passion for the trade and have worked hard since perfecting the skills required to work at the top level of the trade. In that time, I worked with various painters specializing from Domestic work, Commercial work, Hand painted kitchens, timber repair specialists, I even ran a team of painters for a building company for 3 years in Sydney Australia.
Over my career I have gained knowledge and experience in all aspects of Painting & Decorating and have been working for myself as a sole trader since January 2019.
I have a great relationship with my customer base and really enjoy the personal aspect of working as a sole trader as much as I enjoy putting the finishing touches to a job well done.
I genuinely love my job and have a real passion for the trade. I take personal pride in every job I do and I’m happy to put my name to all the work I’ve done.
DUSTLESS SANDING
Having started over a decade ago working with a traditional painter who would paint whole ceilings with a six-inch brush, I’ve seen the industry change a lot with new techniques and technologies. One of the biggest break throughs in decorating in the last ten years is the introduction of dustless sanding systems. Eager to stay at the cutting edge of the trade I invested in a full dustless sanding system and it really has changed the game.
It offers perfect preparation with 95% less dust than traditional hand sanding.
Services
I cover all aspects of decorating, from small rooms to full house renovations. Sash window painting and timber repairs to fine paper hanging. Colour and design advice and more.
I’d love to be a part of your next project and I hope to hear from you soon.
