Painting and Decorating
10Verified ReviewWe would highly recommend Gerard and his team. We have been using him for at least 20 years and he has never let us down and every time he has done an excellent job. Prices are very reasonable, he and his team take pride in their work, they are always punctual and very polite and nothing is too much trouble. Last year he decorated our hall/stairs/landing and hand sanded all the doors and the bannister posts taking off the old paint and varnish before repainting. This year he has just finished decorating a large bedroom. All work completed with great care and excellent workmanship.

10Verified ReviewGerard and his team have worked on the loft insulation of our house as well as some decoration work (repainting front wall, window bedding and window frames). The work they have carried is to the highest standard. We were so pleased with the work itself and also with the relationship with the team, they were prompt, great communication, really easy to be around. Gerard and his team will definitely be doing some more work for us ! Can’t recommend highly enough !

10Verified ReviewAbsolutely amazing job. I cannot praise him enough. Clean dust sheets were used to protect the carpet inside the door. Our door is an original from 1928 which we love but was extremely tatty. Mr Skilling gave great advice, a true craftsman. All the sanding was done by hand with the old varnish removed. When that part was done the door looked like new before he had even started the varnishing ! Craftsmen like this are almost nonexistent. Would not hesitate to recommend. Wonderful.
