“Gary was excellent. We wanted our bedroom painted and some additional decor and detail added. Gary was so professional and provided a very competitive and reasonable quote. Communication was brilliant and he checked in to ensure the job was going as we expected. I was actually away whilst the work was being carried out, leaving my wife and 2-year old son at home - Gary was so considerate and always left the work space clean and tidy each day, even ensuring our toddler was not exposed to tools etc job done was also excellent. brilliant finish and we were very happy”
