    Interior and exterior painting

    It was an excellent service from start to finish. The quote was reasonable and Mark answered all my questions quickly. I'm very happy with the finish. Mark and Luke were friendly and professional and I will definitely be getting them back for future work.

    Painting Windows

    Posted 27 June

    M & L Painters and Decorators painted my window frames inside and out and I would recommend them without hesitation. They arrived promptly to quote for the work and did an excellent job of painting my windows. They were polite, worked extremely hard, with an attention to detail and tidied up at the end of each day. A pleasure to have them working Iin my house.

    Painting interior of 3 room flat, including doors.

    Posted 16 June

    Painted all walls in bedroom and kitchen/living room and internal doors. Cleaned internal window frames and put radiator back on. Managed to cover the yellow staining on the doors which the previous decorators had not. Was invited to inspect and work appeared of a high standard.
