Having been let down by another company, he saved the day, not only was his price more competitive, he couldn’t do enough for us! He was able to slot his team in around us and our project.

Exterior decorating Looking after the outside of your property protects your biggest investment - it also makes the house your home. Proper care of woodwork and, where needed, masonry is a small job if it is done in time, but sometimes maintenance has to give way to repair. Our experienced workmen will take care to fully prepare your walls and external surfaces before painting to make sure that your property is well protected. Whether you are considering exterior decorating for aesthetic reasons or practical reasons - or both - we recommend careful choice of decorator and of materials. Rotten wood, for example, should be dealt with as quickly as possible. But UPVC replacements will never have the same feel of quality.  INTERIOR DECORATING Making your home look beautiful depends on your choice of colours and finishes, but it is surprising how much difference the details make. Really well done decorating gives an immediate impression of quality. The difference between good decorating and poor decorating really depends on the preparation - putting in the work before the pain goes on. Good tradesmen know that, and it's something we look at closely when we're taking on a new decorator. You can rely on our tradesmen to do a proper job. We're always happy to give advice - when asked - about colour combinations and how to create the effect you want. We can probably offer you some ideas you might not have considered.  ROOFING Need your guttering replaced or repaired? Give us a call. We can provide guttering to fit any type of property and we have a wide range of types and shapes in stock. We also offer a gutter cleaning and maintenance service – let us clean and seal all your existing guttering for you. Just speak to a member of the team today for a quick quote.
