After searching for a painter for my workplace on Checkatrade, I was fortunate to find Chris from Rae of Colour. From start to finish, he was professional,dependable and delivered work to a high standard. I am extremely pleased with the results and would not hesitate to recommend his services. Not only did Chris do an excellent job he also went above and beyond my expectations by carrying out some handy repairs for me, which I was very grateful for. The work was completed within the week and the results were amazing. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a reliable decorator.Verified reviewerJob location: NE2310 Exterior Painting
