“I phoned Mark after being let down by other Checkatrade painters who said they would give me a quote then failed to turn up. Mark was positive from the word go, gave a detailed quote and timeline and was true to his word. He did a fabulous job of painting the front and back of the house. The finish was brilliant, with all the cracks filled and now invisible, he also cleaned out the gutters whilst the scaffolding was up and checked that all the windows were sealed. Apart from being a really nice guy he is true to his word. We got him back to do some interior painting which was done perfectly.”
