    Decorating two bedrooms

    These guys are super-excellent: reliable, easy to have around and they did a great job. They did a job for me before (hall stairs and landing) and on the strength of that, I repeat-booked them. Can’t say enough good things about them!

    Highly recommended

    Managed to fit us in between another couple of jobs and completed the work exactly in the time quoted. Price for our exterior paint job was very reasonable and Ian and team were super-reliable and left everything nice and tidy. Looks great.

    Brilliant Job Done by Elite Decorating!

    October 2026: The guys from Elite Decorating completed a fantastic decorating project for us. The job brief encompassed wallpaper stripping; pre-decorating preparation works; painting walls, ceilings and woodwork. The work area was the hall, landing and stairwell of an old Victorian property - so a large area. The quality of all the undertaken works was of a very high calibre which we are very happy with. We were both present in our home whilst the works were taking place. The guys were very courteous and respectful at all times. They also tidied-up regularly. We would highly recommend them.

    Excellent job - will use again!

    Ian and co painted the exterior of my house and it looks great. Took them exactly the time quoted and the rates were very reasonable. They were fast but thorough. Did a wonderful job and were always polite and on time. They were very tidy and went above and beyond. Definitely have them down for some more jobs in the new year. They seem to have lots on - which is no wonder given the service they offer. Definitely recommend.

    Job done but not the best quality

    They did a good enough work, but not to my expectations. The skirting board still looked a bit rough afterwards, and they left quite a few white paint drops on my then recently lacquered stairs, which I then had to carefully remove afterwards.

    Response from Elite Decorating & Maintenance

    Thank you for the honest feedback. I am pleased you felt the job was completed to a good standard overall, although I am sorry some aspects fell short of your expectations. I take great pride in my workmanship and apologise for the paint drops on your newly lacquered stairs and the areas of skirting you felt needed more attention. I completed this job well over a year ago now and this is the first I have heard of any issue with the job and if I was told of any issues I would have definitely come and rectify any issues. We will use your feedback to improve our protection and final checks.

    Great job!

    The guys were great - they came over and priced the job, got me booked in and have done a fantastic job. We have soffit and fascia’s painted, external wooden window frames, external wooden French doors and an over stairs ceiling done. The guys stripped back where needed and re-painted. Really happy and would strongly recommend.
