I first met Olli when he started in business and have nothing but praise for him and all of his crew. I would have no hesitation recommending him for any job to anyone. He is 100% honest, hard working and all of my jobs have been carried out to an extremely high standard and always within agreed time. What more can I say... He does 'exactly what it says on the can' (couldn't resist!) seriously 10/10

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews
Struggled to get anyone to take on my job but Ollie did and did a fantastic job! Looks amazing. I was so pleased I have asked Ollie to decorate my hall, stairs and landing.
Ollie and his team (Paint Etc.) did a great job of redecorating my house, at the start of the year (2023). They were punctual, polite and the quality of the work is excellent. I would thoroughly recommend them for both internal and external work (they repainted the outside of my house a few years ago and it’s still in great condition).

Official checkOn the public register
Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 8 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.
