"Work carried out as requested. John was very tidy and cleared up as he went along. Job was completed in good time. Would use again."

AnonymousCheckatrade5.0 rating

"John was friendly, reliable, and competitively priced. John decorated the majority of our 3 bedroom house to an excellent standard and within the timeframe and budget originally quoted. John left our home looking lovely and fresh. Nothing was too much trouble, including a couple of colours changes on our behalf. We would not hesitate to recommend John’s services to friends and family."

"I was very pleased with John's work from the initial quote to the end of the job. I chose John because he came to my house to view the job before he quoted. Other tradesmen asked for photos and priced the job from them. John's quote was very reasonable. He arrived for work at the appointed time every day. He worked hard and cleared up after himself daily. He gave good advice as to the choice of materials. The job was finished to a high standard. I would be very happy to employ John again and would thoroughly recommend him."
