Kitchen/utility, hallway, stairs and upstairs landing
From the start, Tom’s communication was excellent. He gave me my initial quote on Friday morning and and, somehow, even managed to get started on our painting on the other side of the weekend! Shane could not do enough for us! He worked early and late every day so what was initially quoted to be an 8 day job, only took 5. He was fantastic. I will recommend Tom and Shane to everyone who asks me for a painter/decorator as they were brilliant from start to finish. Thanks so much!!Verified reviewerJob location: DN9RSophie U10 Painter / Decorator

Prepped, made repairs as required and repainted all soffits, external doors and window frames.
Absolutely first class job from start to finish, the price was right, the quality of workmanship was spot on, turned up when he said he would and turned the job around in the time stated. Friendly and courteous, I cant recommend Tom highly enough and I will definitely be using him again for future works.Verified reviewerJob location: LS1210 Painter / Decorator

Exterior painting
Tom gave me a quote very quickly for some exterior painting, we were happy with the price and agreed a start date. Shane carried out the work over 2 days very professionally with thorough preparation and a very neat and tidy finish. The job was completed ten days after I received the quote from Tom, very happy with the price, time scale and quality of the work. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: DN210 Painter / Decorator
