Highlights
“Frank was recommended by a friend who has used Frank's Services a few times. We needed our through lounge, hall, second bedroom and shower room painted. That included ceilings, walls and woodwork. Frank came and asked what we wanted and suggested the suitable paints. We received and estimate and he fitted us into his schedule. Frank is friendly and quickly you feel he's not a stranger. He's adaptable, tidy, reliable and his workmanship is excellent. We are extremely happy with the finished work. We are so pleased to recommend him, you won't be disappointed.”
“We first got in touch with Frank when we moved into our new house in July 2023 as we needed some plastering and decorating doing and we’re so pleased we did. So far Frank has plastered and painted our three bedrooms, the kitchen and has just completed our lounge. He will be back soon to do our hall, stairs and landing so clearly we are very happy with his standard of work. It’s good to find someone reliable and trustworthy who you can leave to work in your home. Highly recommend Frank.”
