Mark repaired our Artex ceiling. Even before painting and after drying, the repair is almost indistinguishable from the surrounding Artex (visitors have commented on this). He came and did what he said he would do and charged a very reasonable price. He was quick too, done in less than 3 hours. Would recommend him to others.
