Business Information
I have been self employed now for over 35 years and strive to provide a professional, friendly, bespoke decorating service to customers old and new.
The family buisness was established in 1935 by grandfather George and my father Findlay then joined, so I am now the third generation painter and decorator to continue the buisness.
I can carry out all aspects of your decorating needs and I am happy to provide you with any advice and help with your decorating requirements.
I have invested in the latest technology to provide a dust free environment which eradicates mess to your premises but more importantly protects your health.
95% of the materials I use are now all water based, which provides a solvent free, environmentally friendly alternative to the outdated solvent based products.

Painting of outside of ground floor flat - windowsills, frames, doors and down pipes
Very tidy work by 2 painters who explained reasons for all work undertaken. Some shrubs required to be cut back to gain access. This was done after permission was obtained and refuse tidied away. Very satisfactory result and we would have no hesitation in recommending them - not the cheapest but worth the extra.
