“Damian has worked for me twice, 5 years apart. Both times he was helpful, polite and unobtrusive. He is also a perfectionist which is an advantage. I would also like to praise his concern about my dog and his clean up skills once the work was finished.”

Highlights
“Damian & team decorated my entire 4 bed property. The attention detail, organisation and whole job was second to none. Over the moon with the end result. Thanks again team, you were a pleasure.”
“DS Painting & Decorating were appointed to carry out external preparation and painting to an existing large brickwork wall, which had been previously painted, and to existing woodwork rafter ends and soffits on an 1830's house in Dorset. The scope of the work had been priced and agreed in writing prior to commencement. They commenced the work on the agreed date and progressed the work in a professional and competent manner. Their telephone communication was prompt and they were friendly, polite and reliable. The work was completed to a very good standard and the site was properly cleared.”
