Requires micro managing as not professional
Posted 26 October 2025
Friendly but not a professional painter. Charged 2.25k for a simple paint job of a 10m hallway. Dropped paint on tiled floor and carpet (didn’t clean) only did one coat, sloppy, used cheap paint materials (not as indicated in the contract, which meant more coats for opacity). Had to make them come back and redo the work (which they did, as we withheld payment) but he sent his nephew who is not a professional painter either. Frustrating time to manage as it was such a simple job and I ended up having to finish the work myself. Polite team but regret employing them as it’s too much hassle.
Job location: SW1V
