    I would not recommend this trader after the quality of work completed in my dining room.

    I was so dissapointed and shocked when I saw the state of our dining room. Countless imperfections over the walls, terrible woodwork and a lot of mess for me to tidy. After raising my concerns Mark did return twice for a couple of hours however there are still plenty of imperfections, sloppy woodwork and terrible cutting in, particularly around our built in cupboard and bifolds. Mark stated the imperfections were due to the plasterer, however he had commented on how well the plasterer had done previously. I've spent hours cleaning paint off our brand new floor. Pictures are after 3rd visit.

    Response from CDS Decorators

    Having received an review of this nature im shocked. Its taken 4 weeks for customer the write. I asked customer to get plasterer back as it was awful .. she refused. Normally i would fill 5/10 holes/dinges i filled way over 100. I even asked customer to look for issues on day 2 with me. She was happy to and with result of finding so many. I went back a 3rd day and completely repainted room. Lady paid in full 8/9 hrs later so had time to inspect work. Time keeping i was exactly on time each day. Room was immaculately clean when i left

    Transformation of Hall and Landing

    We are just delighted with the work Mark has done on our Hall and Landing - it has completely overhauled a tired space over a few short days. The work was completed exactly as requested and Mark was professional, prompt, friendly and kind. Brilliant!
