    Paint conservatory, front door and surround

    Posted 01 July

    Norbert was an exceptionally good contractor. He can only be described as a perfectionist and his work reflected this. He found a solution when he came across some problems with my job that we hadn’t expected. I would have no hesitation recommending him.

    prep and paint kitchen diner plus a few extra bits around the house

    Posted 07 May

    Norbert is a very knowledgeable man with excellent attention to detail. He listened to the brief and broke down the quote so that I was able to include other bits into the project easily. He arrived on time and worked hard every day trying to achieve the best finish possible on a very 'quirky' house. Our rooms have been tranformed! Highly recommend!!

    Conservatory internal redecoration

    Posted 15 December 2025

    Norbert was able to transform our previously unused conservatory into a stylish dining area/entertaining space within an extremely short space of time, leaving us a space we're extremely happy with. He was diligent, polite and always referred back to check best next steps to ensure we remained happy with the work and finish. He was able to handle all aspects of the decorating to a high standard and his communication throughout remained immediate and precise. I would highly recommend HCS to anyone looking for attentive, careful and quality work in transforming your home and spaces.

    Amazing job

    Posted 14 September 2025

    We would highly recommend using Handy Craft Surrey. Norbert was extremely knowledgeable and was able to give some great recommendations for what we wanted to achieve with our new dining room set up. Both Norbert and Thomas worked extremely hard, even after finding some extra difficulties from previous trades person work. Norbert is a true professional and strives to achieve the perfect finish with his decorating. We are so happy with the final result. Thank you.

    Professional, clean and tidy and delivered a high standard of finish.

    Posted 04 August 2025

    Norbert spent a week with us. I can confidently recommend him and I believe I have found my trusted decorator moving forward for future jobs. Nortbert was timely, meticulous, proud of his work, goes the extra mile, considerate with protection and tidiness. He has a good understanding of wider issues and was able to offer guidance in respect of our old and complex period property. Thank you Norbert.

    Prep, painting and decorating of new loft conversion

    Posted 17 June 2025

    I can't recommend Handy Craft enough. Norbert was incredibly professional and came with a questionnaire regarding the work on his quote visit. There were many inconsistencies in the plastering and a few really bad areas - especially on a sloped ceiling in the bathroom - but Norbert and Thomas did an amazing job and I'm so incredibly pleased with the results. I'm already working with them on our next project. 10/10 would recommend.
