    High Quality TLC External Paint Job

    After I'd accepted Ian's reasonable quote he happened to have a suitable time slot to do the work, and he and his team spent 5 days doing up all the external doors and windows paintwork - which needed some real TLC and that's what I got. I found Ian's expertise excellent, and he and team worked in a tidy, professional and reliable manner, and they were flexible to accommodate my needs. After thinking about it I also decide to trust Ian, leaving the house open and unlocked whilst going on an errand - and that trust was clearly justified. I am very pleased with the result.

    Highly recommended due to high standard of work

    Ian was very nice man. He came over and took into account all the work that needed doing. The work was carried out to a high standard and I believe him and his team went above and beyond to get the work completed and in time for when I needed it done. Communication was very clear and easy. He very much listened to what I wanted done and made a way to execute it. The work shows he cares about the job he does and could only recommend him.

    Touch up and refresh, big thumbs up!

    We hired Ian a year or so ago to completely redecorate our cottage and hired him again just recently for some touch up work and a refresh. As before his work is impeccable, he is friendly, attentive to detail, involved us at all stages and genuinely a delight to deal with. I have no hesitation in recommending him and Decorate It for any work you might require.

    Excellent work by Decorate It

    Ian and Luke stepped into the chaos of a house which needed more than a lick of paint. They were professional and delightful to work with. Nothing phased them out, and where the colours seemed outlandish they simply stepped up to the plate, I would undoubtedly use them again.
