CITY & GUILDS

Mr Charlie Smith

A bit about me. Hi, my name is Charlie. I started my career in Painting &amp; 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 &amp; 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.

With the best kit you get the best results! This top of the line sanding equipment allows me to achieve perfectly smooth finishes with next to no dust.

Before and after on these original vintage lift doors during redecoration of communal hallways in large block of flats.

Before and After

These windows needed some work but we got them back to looking brand new

Repaired and repainted windows

Redecoration of Lounge.

This wallpaper feature wall works really well in this bathroom I painted in a deep green. It is all tied in with gold bathroom furniture. I also treated the wallpaper afterwards to protect it from steam and any water.

Bathroom feature wall

Repaired and repainted the damaged render on this property.

Exterior Works

This render was failing in multiple areas and most of the existing paint was peeling away. After much scraping and repairing I got it back to safe, sealed and looking great!

Exterior works

Repainted these exterior walls and refinished the woodwork over head.

Pictures of my work

Charles Smith Painting & Decorating

Charlie painted the exterior of my house. He did a brilliant job and I love my new green house.

Great job.

Meticulous work. Knowledgeable and courteous. Punctual and reliable.

Immaculate work

I was very pleased with the kitchen decoration. Charlie carried out very thorough preparation and painting work.  I would definitely recommend him and will use him again.

Kitchen decoration

Charlie was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and the quality of his workmanship great. Would definitley use again. 

Great experience

Could not be happier with the work Charlie had carried out for us. He replied within minutes to our initial enquiry, provided a quote very promptly and booked in the work within the timeframe we were hoping for.
His work and work ethic is extremely professional (and he is also a nice guy to have around!) 
Charlie uses a dust free sanding machine that leaves surfaces looking like new prior to painting and leaves no mess whatsoever so when he leaves the job each evening you would not know he has been there! 
Would not hesitate to recommend and will hopefully be using again.

Painting Hall, Stairs &Landing

Charlie did an excellent job, he was tidy,  friendly, on time both days.  He took pride in his work and I would recommend him.
