  Exterior house painting with remedial work and repairs to woodwork and windows.

  Décor Developments did an excellent exterior painting job on a listed period property for us. A well as preparation and painting, this also involved a significant amount of remedial work and joinery repairs to window sills, sash window frames and a Georgian portico. This was all done to a high standard and with sensitivity to the style and age of the property. The team was efficient and professional and a pleasure to have around. I would have no hesitation in recommending their work.

  Painting all rooms downstairs and the hallway up and down

  We were very impressed with everything. The team of lads were always on time, very polite, tidy. I would not hesitate to use or recommend Rick and his team again, very professional. Thank you Rick for a excellent job, and for fitting us in your busy schedule.

  Paint external house, barn and conservatory

  Really good job, had a team of up to 4 guys here over 6 days, all very pleasant and more than happy to address any minor snagging issues. Even arranged a cherry picker given height of building. Looking forward to having them back to carry out inside decoration later this summer. Did a great job.

  Full interior 4 bed house painting

  Terrible work, bad communication and left a very bad taste in the mouth. After 2 days, and a quoted 2 coats, he advised that a further day's work was required for a 3rd coat costing over GBP500. Upon inspection, found some litter around the house. Specifically asked for a particular paint (2 coats should be enough to cover even a different coloured layer). We found a watery finish, wall paint that had spilled over on to the ceiling and some hidden areas totally untouched. Decided to finish the job ourselves. No paint left behind. This tells me that he watered it down to make it last. Avoid!

  Response from Decor Developments Ltd

  We quoted the work before the customer had chosen the colour and it is standard practice to quote for 2 coats. When we started to apply the second coat to the walls, it was clear that the paint wasn’t covering the original colours and would require a 3rd coat. We asked the customer to come and see that the second coat wasn’t covering. The customer chose almond white which is very light and we had some strong colour to go over. Everything was filled, sanded down properly and there was no paint splashes on anything, the workmanship was up to standard. It is just a case of light paint not covering dark colours. The accusation that we watered down the paint is ridiculous, we do not want to paint walls 3 times! The customer was very abusive, X rated and unreasonable. We do not like to leave a job unfinished so we offered to buy more paint and apply a 3rd coat but there would be a charge for that. The customer didn’t want us to do that. Our other reviews show that we take our job seriously and are not in the habit of leaving bad quality work

  External painting

  Rick contacted me almost immediately after initial enquiry and called round at time agreed. Thankfully he managed to fit us in earlier than expected and he and Ryan did an excellent job. One little issue (due to poor weather) was corrected straight away with no problems at all. All in all an excellent service from start to finish at a very reasonable price.
