Alex was hired to decorate 2 bedrooms at our property. Work involved stripping, preparation, papering and painting. We found him to be extremely polite and punctual. The work was carried out to a very high standard. His charges were very good value and not only was his work excellent but he left the rooms in a very tidy state afterwards. In short we would highly recommend his services and plan to use him again in future.

Alex recently completed a job painting our hall, landing and stairs. Alex works diligently and in a very professional manner arriving every day at the same time. At the end of each working day he cleaned and tidied up before he left and he kept us informed daily what he would be doing workwise the following day. We would recommend Alex to anyone who is looking for an honest, professional tradesman and one who offers his services at a very competitive price.

Alex did an amazing job stripping our old existing wallpaper, re-papering and also painting a number of walls, ceilings and doors. It gave our new home the uplift it needed to make it feel special. Alex worked hard throughout turning up every day first thing and didn't stop until he left. The quality of the work was amazing and his customer service couldn't have been faulted. He was in constant contact with us and made the process so easy. I couldn't recomend him enough and certainly will be using his services again in the future.

My husband has a health condition which meant Alex could only do the work in the afternoons. No other decorator would touch the job, but Alex did. Work completed professionally and within timescale.
