“I contacted Reagan to renovate a two bed flat that was to be rented out. Reagan swift in his communication and very generous with advice and guidance. He was extremely honest in his approach, particular as I am a novice. He delivered an exceptionally high standard of work within a very reasonable timeframe. I would strongly recommend his services and will definitely use RP painters again.”

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 3 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.
