“At very short notice Spencer and Sam took on a difficult Roof Guttering job, outside, in very rainy weather. Undeterred by the rain they sorted and repaired a problem with Guttering that other tradesmen had supposedly fixed. The attention to detail and customer service was so refreshing to see and we would not hesitate to employ them again, or to recommend them to other potential users.”

Highlights
“We had Sir Decorator over a second time to finish the upstairs after they did such a great job on the stairs and landing area. A great amount of knowledge in their trade around paints and types of paints to use. The job was finished to time, with their arrival always when they advised they would be with us. Overall finish was excellent. Really happy with the work done and the timescales. Would absolutely recommend and already have done with them booked in at my parents shortly.”
“Thoroughly impressed with Spencer and Sam. Lovely people and they did a really cracking job. I’m more than happy. I would highly recommend them. Very clean and tidy and great with my little dog too :-).”

Spencer and team were absolutely amazing from start to finish from coming into see the project and assisting with making decisions about door- his experience helped the whole process when it came to the work- they were friendly and swift in their work. Fantastic job, couldn't recommend them enough.
What a lovely team- very happy with the work carried out. Quick, professional and tidy. Will definitely recommend to friends and family- we will be using their service again soon. Thank you Spencer and Sam.
Absolutely brilliant job, couldn't be more pleased with results. Spencer and his team were friendly, quick, orgnaised and gave us back an immaculate room. The wall paper was tricky to hang and the fireplace needed lots of help but they came through with excellent recommendations and beautiful results. Would recommend without hesitation.
Spencer and his partner are genuinely nice people. They care about what they do and carry out the work to the same standard as they would if they were doing it for themselves. After a particularly bad experience with a tradesperson whilst this work was being completed we have been made extremely wary. However, Spencer came round within a few hours of me making contact and he scheduled us in as soon as he could, squeezing us in aorund other work and finished the work on time. The price was less than we expected as well. Would use again, no question.
Really pleased with the finished job. Spencer and Sam were friendly and helpful throughout. I have booked my next job with them too.

Can’t recommend Spencer and his team highly enough. They did a substantial job for us - five bedrooms, stairs and landing. The thoroughness and eye for detail was truly exceptional and consistent - there was no sign of them getting bored by the end of week two, which really impressed us as it was a slog of a job! Delightful people who are dedicated and hardworking. They go above and beyond. On budget and on time. We’ll be using them for all of our decorating from now on.
Spencer and his team did a lovely job decorating external and interior door, window frames and guttering of my cottage and with great sensitivity to the character of the place. Quick efficient - and even cleaned my windows for me! I recommend them and would definitely use them again.
very good work clean and tidy
This is the third time we have used SIR Decorator as we have been extremely satisfied in every way with previous works carried out inside our property. This recent job involved the decorating of the outside of the property, where required, and this was carried out with the usual professionalism we have come to expect from SIR Decorator. In addition, the work was carried out in an extremely pleasant and friendly but professional way and we would never hesitate to recommend this contractor to anyone and we will always use SIR Decorator for any future requirements we may have.

We could not have asked for a more professional service. Spencer was prompt on quoting and communicating via email and calls. The house was left clean and clear at the end of each day and the work completed to a high standard. We wouldn't hesitate (and already have) recommending Spencer to friends and family. Friendly, swift and professional service - spot on! We have already asked him for quotes for more!
Very polite, punctual and Knowledgable, work done to a great standard and in a really good time. Very satisfied. Nice people to deal with. Would definitely recommend.
Job was to paint new extension. From the start, Spencer was professional and courteous. Job pricing was accurate and costings explained. Excellent job done, looks amazing. No paint splashes, existing decor well protected and cleaned up very well after job completed. Very happy with the service provided and we would be more than happy to recommend. So nice to know we have found a decorator we can trust. Thank you
Another 5 star review and justly deserved. Great communication and excellent customer liaison. He' in my phone book!
Excellent level of work, any small snags were dealt with promptly before leaving site. Would highly recommend and use Spencer again.
We were in the fortunate position of knowing Spencer's work from a previous job so were confident in choosing him to paint our barn, outbuildings and weathervane! As always, great attention to detail, professional in all things and we are very pleased with the end result.
