## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Paul is a very conscientious workman who pays a lot of attention to detail and preparation, which shows in the finished job. He has worked for me on 4 occasions between February and June 2019. He has always appeared on time and on the day promised. The work duration on each job was between 1 and 2 days and was always to my complete satisfaction. Paul is a fast but careful decorator with a nice presentation, who blends in with the household to keep disruption to a minimum. He was always very helpful with colour choices and even had paint specially mixed to get what we wanted. I do recommend him."

> "Paul is very easy to work with. He always tries to resolve any additional issues that come up as part of the job and is able to turn his hand to most things. He works quickly and the end results are always good. He will do a very thorough perfect job where required, or a quick tidy up for the likes of rental properties. I have used him for at least 10 years and I would highly recommend him."
