> "Greg and his team were brilliant. They completed the job on schedule and on budget. Greg is professional, efficient and honest. His quotes are very thorough minimising the risk of unexpected costs and any extras are always quoted for in advance. His team were on site at 0800 every weekday and some Saturdays and worked through until 6pm most days We are so pleased with the build quality on our new extension and garage conversion and the whole job took only 5 months. More than happy to recommend!"

## Before you hire a painter / decorator
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
- Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time — not only the quality of the work.
- Agree the call-out fee up front, and be wary of large upfront deposits for an emergency job.
- Run the Cowboy Checker to confirm the business is real before you let anyone in.
