    We had an excellent experience working with Carl and would highly recommend him. We are thrilled with the final result and Carl was so easy friendly and all round lovely to work with. In particular, he came in for an extra day (on a bank holiday Sunday!) just to make sure the job was done right. Tidy, reliable and lovely to chat to - will be hiring again if we have more decorating needs.

    Carl was very friendly and professional. The work done was of a high standard and my bathroom looks so much better. He was also really good with communication when booking him in and in the run up to the job. Would recommend Carl to anyone.

    Carl is a very courteous, pleasant man. His work is of the highest standard and very professionally carried out, we are delighted with the result. We will not hesitate to have him back again when we need more decorating done. We would recommend him to anyone wanting to have quality decorating work in their home.

Company info

Forbes Decor has generally been a local business, specialising in pudsey and surrounding areas, although i have worked nationwide on various projects.

Friendly local business and no job too small, all aspects undertaken including paper hanging. High standard work, FREE quotations.

I have been a decorator by trade for the last 22 years.


I went into self employment pretty much from the start and have had a reasonably successful career in that time. I started mainly on domestic projects locally and expanded from there.


I have also worked with various other decorating firms on a sub-contract basis. This has involved projects with Tesco, Barclays, one-stop convenience stores, Texaco, Councils, police stations, prisons, student accommodation and local authority housing.


I like to think I am a perfectionist and I always like a job to be done to the best of my ability.
