Highlights
“Ivan done a fantastic job painting our new house, offering lots of help and extremely flexible. He was supposed to only paint the house, but we ended up giving him more painting projects, varnishing our stairs and painting all our woodwork, due to his professionalism and quality. He was very fair and takes pride in making his customers very happy. He's extremely helpful and he will not finish a job until we are 100% happy with everything, including coming back to do touch ups. What helps is that he's a really nice and easy going guy as well. If only all tradesmen were as professional, flexible and helpful as Ivan! I would not hesitate to recommend Ivan and his team to anyone looking for a painter & decorator, we would deffo use again in future 👌🏼”

Fantastic Job at Short Notice
Ivan recently completed the full painting and decorating of my property and I couldn’t be happier with the result. I contacted him at very short notice. Despite the tight timeframe, he managed to complete the entire job within five days, which was incredibly impressive. The quality of his work is excellent and the finish throughout the property is very professional. Ivan was reliable, hardworking and clearly takes pride in what he does. He was also a pleasure to deal with – friendly, respectful and easy to communicate with throughout the project. I’m extremely pleased with the outcome and would happily recommend Ivan to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy painter and decorator.

Outstanding interior decorating service, highly recommended!
Ivan and his colleague redecorated the entire interior of our three-bedroom semi, and we are very happy with the results. Their service was outstanding from start to finish. They provided clear timelines and worked non-stop from Tuesday through to Sunday to complete the work efficiently and on time. They were tidy, ensuring all areas were cleaned and organised before leaving each day. We were working from home the whole time with no disruption, and coordinating which rooms would be painted daily worked seamlessly. The quality of their work was superb. The work included stripping wallpaper and treating the walls thorough surface preparation (making good and filling holes), and painting with special paint for the bathroom and washable paint for the kitchen, alongside refreshing all wood surfaces such as bannisters, skirting boards, and doorframes throughout the house. They were happy to accommodate small additional requests and touch-ups. Finally, great value for money with no unexpected surprises. Their attention to detail, honesty, and pleasant nature made the entire experience positive. We are very satisfied and would strongly recommend Ivan and his colleague, and would certainly use their services again.
A thorough job
Thorough, professional painting of the outside of the house over 4 continuous days at a fair price. It now looks great! Ivan was helpful and responsive on site.

Great painter, better guy!
Ivan painted our entire new flat at a completely reasonable price. He was professional, offered his opinions on various paint options without being pushy about using a specific paint. We knew nothing going in, and we found his advice very helpful. When it came time to paint, Ivan showed up on time and completed the job on time and with great accuracy. We had high ceilings, built-in closets, bathroom ceilings, a front door, and various other difficult jobs, and Ivan painted them with great precision. When it came to touch-ups, Ivan took great pride in his work and came back immediately to fix a few slight issues. No questions asked. I would highly recommend Ivan in the future.
Excellent painting of outside windows
Ivan painted my front and back ground floor windows. I am very impressed with his work. He kept me up to date, arrived when he said he will, and uses high-quality materials, the workmanship is excellent.
Endorsement Reference
Ivan as a person is a genuine trustworthy trader, very honest and when he comes to have a look at the work he will tell you how it is and is pretty much spot on and will give you a truthful answer on what can or can't be done.
Endorsement Reference
Ivan has redecorated my apartment for the second time in 9 years. He's repainted the walls in reception room, two bedrooms, kitchen, hallway and the bathroom. He's also restored and repainted the windows and sills. It's been 4 days of work in total and 2 people working. I'm very pleased with the result. Would highly recommend Ivan to anyone looking to decorate their properties.
Endorsement Reference
Ivan has recently completed the decoration of my two bedroom flat. Including putting up my pictures on the walls and helping me to choose the perfect colours,his work is perfect, my flat wasn't decorated for 9 years now it looks like new. Ivan is very polite and professional. Takes great pride in his work. I would highly recommend him.
Endorsement Reference
3 exterior peeling windows in a bad state at the back of a raised ground floor were scraped off, sanded and filled where necessary. 2 coats of oil based primer undercoat and 2 coats of oil based gloss top coat were then applied. The work involved ladder work and the need to be clean and tidy both in the flat and the patio of the flat below. The work started on the agreed date and was done each day, weather permitting, till finished. An interior ceiling was also given a clean up coat of white emulsion due to access panels having been installed. The guys were very pleasant with good humour and a joy to have around. A good job was done, equipment removed each night and cleanup was good with no mess left. Were very happy with the result.
