From start to finish, Steve exceeded my expectations in every way. First and foremost, Steve is incredibly skilled and meticulous. Every seam and pattern match is flawless, creating a seamless wall. Steve's attention to detail and craftsmanship are truly impressive. Not only is Steve talented, but he was punctual, professional, and respectful of my home making the process enjoyable and stress-free.

Great speedy quote and work. Will use on a regular basis. Have recommended to friends and neighbours.
Excellent all the way from the quote to the finish! I cannot recommend highly enough. We were absolutley delighted with the very high standard of finish and were grateful for his advice on colours etc. We have already booked to do more work for us.
We have known Steve Kneale from Wokingham Decorators for many years. He has decorated the outside of the house twice and we have lost track of how much work he has done inside over these years. He quietly gets on with his work and finishes to a very high standard. On a number of occasions we have left him with the house keys while we are away and come home to find all is complete on schedule and to the quoted price. We can absolutely recommend Steve without hesitation or reservation.
Steve was very professional. Very happy with the quality of his work and we will definitely use him again.
Excellent work painting the exterior of our 7 bedroom house , annex and summerhouse in Wokingham . A complete transformation , clean , tidy and reliable . I will use Steve again for sure . Very reasonable as well .

Wokimgham Decorators have done lots of work for us over the past 5 years and we have been very happy with the service provided. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Wokingham Decorators were very easy to work with. Steve understood what we needed and quoted very promptly. The work was completed to a high standard and within the timescales and budget agreed.
Several sections of the walls had been damaged by flooding and Steve repainted two downstairs rooms. The repairs were done quickly and efficiently, helping me to move furniture back and forth from one room to the other, he also hoovered up afterwards. Very impressed with his work.
Steve completed the painting of our roof facia boards in the spring of 2024. He was very professional, detailed and delivered a high quality finish. Highly recommended and book early.
Steve is an outstanding decorator. His diligence and dedication to his profession is evident in the quality of the finish. His knowledge is impressive as is his range of skills. I would thoroughly recommend him. He is our favourite decorator.
Steve is a skilled, reliable and conscientious decorator who delivers high quality work both internal and external. I was particularly impressed with repainting of our wooden conservatory.
Steve was always on time and responded straight away if I had any questions. Did a great job and also a couple of handyman jobs for me!
I would thoroughly recommend Steve Kneale (Wokingham Decorators) to do decorating work.He came on the date arranged, finished on schedule, and the work was of the highest quality.
Over a couple of years , Steve has decorated my whole house room by room. He’s professional, tidy and excellent at his craft. I highly recommend him.
Wokingham Decorators redecorated the external woodwork in very hot summer of '22 and a year later my kitchen. Both times very polite, efficient and obliging with a high standard of finish. I would have no hesitation in recommending Wokingham Decorators for any domestic decorating work
