Reliable, quality decorating
Greg and Matt Barden have just completed an excellent job decorating the outside of our house. The were very reliable in arriving when they said they would, the quality of the work was first rate and they tidied up very well. Overall it was great work at a reasonable price. Matt had also done an excellent job earlier in decorating our hall, stairs and landing. We would definitely use them again.Verified reviewerJob location: TN4RSimon C10 Painting / Decorating

Excellent plastering and painting duo - the best - highly recommended!
Matt and Greg have worked on a number of different renovation projects in the house and each time have provided excellent and thorough plastering and painting. Very polite, timely and masters in their trades - we always trust that they will leave the project looking absolutely incredible. We will ofcourse be booking Matt & Greg again when the next project surfaces. Highly recommended!Verified reviewerJob location: RH810 Painter / Decorator
