Ian & Bryan were very thorough , and explained everything in minute detail, the work that they undertook on my property in Cramond. The attention to detail was first class and the walls , fixings and skirtings were beautifully finished . I was really delighted with the finished article . And anyone needing a top end job would use the services of this talented Duo. Many thanks..

I would highly recommend IE Decor. We had the pleasure of having Brian as our tradesman; he was professional, tidy, friendly. We have a Georgian house and the painting required extensive expertise. Resulting in an immaculate finish to our home. The hall especially has been completely overhauled as well as repairs to the ceiling of the spare bedroom.

Worked in property since I was a teenager and Iain's work is the best we've ever seen.

We just completed a massive renovation on a gorgeous flat in Stockbridge, the wood work was left in a complete state by the joiner, and the plasterer left a terrible finish (sorry guys) but Iain has literally transformed the place. Very strong attention to detail and fantastic customer service, he really cares about the end product and he was very respecting of our property. He managed the job around us coming and going with a baby and the job went off without a hitch.

I'd always recommend Iain, however you'll be lucky to get him, he's very busy and for good reason.

I had my front room redecorated by IE Decor. Iain visited to give me a quote and to talk through the job; he had a really clear idea of what to do to get the best result. Like lots of Edinburgh properties, it's an old house and the walls and ceiling needed a lot of preparation work. Iain and Brian carried out the work; they obviously have a lot of pride in their work and set themselves very high standards. They both worked really hard and were always professional, friendly and polite. The quality of their work from preparation through to finish is excellent and the room looks a hundred times better.

Our business contracted IE Decor to re-varnish & weather-proof our building's external wooden doors' panelling. The owner Iain Elphinstone was prompt and professional in his dealing with our quotation and works request, and we appreciated his finding time in his schedule to get this external work done before Autumn. His team did a great job on the woodwork. They were on-time, professional and thorough in their approach, and pleasant to deal with. They even took care to lay down protective coverings onto the road/pavement outside the office. Happy to recommend.

I E Decor carried out decorating work to the exterior of our house and this
was all done to a very high standard. In particular, the window frames
needed a lot of prep before they could be painted as they were in such
a bad way. However, Brian was more than equal to the task and they are
now looking great again. Iain also assisted with the work and both guys
really take a pride in what they do. I would certainly recommend them for the high quality of their work and also because they were tidy and reliable at
all times.

Ian is a meticulous worker and takes a real pride in his work, therefore the quality of his work is amazing.

Brian and Ian worked on our period property over a number of months and painted most rooms and the hallway. They ended up stripping back wallpaper in the hallway that we suspect had been there since the 1890s. No small task! They were careful with the period features, making the most of them and recapturing features which had been lost by previous work.

I would have no hesitation in recommending IE Decor to anyone else and no hesitation in using them again.

We had Brian and Iain in to strip wallpaper, plaster and paint our dining room. We also had them wallpaper a cupboard which we hadn’t asked for before the job started but they were happy to squeeze it in.

The walls, skirting and cornices were in poor condition. We also have an alcove in the room which is a really awkward space to get into. Brian done an excellent job of all aspects of the work and the attention to detail was exceptional.

Brian and Iain worked quietly and efficiently, keeping our home as clean as possible at all times.

Both of them were a pleasure to have around and we’ll definitely be returning to them for any future painting/decorating jobs we need done going forward.

We had a new kitchen fitted and old tiles removed etc and Brian did a superb job of repainting all the walls and skirtings and ceiling including a feature wall. I have no hesitation recommending Iain and Brian and they did a superb and professional job including getting the paint supplier to rectify an error in the paint colour for the feature wall having already applied the first coat - this was done at no extra cost to ourselves.

I had three rooms painted, including ceilings and woodwork. Brian and Iain were very efficient and have done a highly professional job.
Iain responded quickly to all my enquiries.
Brian arrived at an agreed time and worked quietly, neatly and considerately.
I am delighted with the completed work.

We had attempted to tackle removing layers of wallpaper from our hallway. After getting down to the varnished paper layer it was time to call in help!
Brian worked swiftly to prep and line the hallway, which is now ready for us to paint at our own leisure. I'm really pleased with the finishes, particularly around the doorways and woodwork. This was my first experience of having any work done in Edinburgh and I have been very pleased with the quality and attention to detail.
Brian was friendly and chatty but kept to work with minimal disruption (which was very welcomed with both myself and partner working from home) and cleared up after each day. This was great to allow us to go about our small 1 bed flat without worry of dragging dirt/dust about. I would definitely recommend IE Decor if you're looking for an honest quote, fair price and good quality professional finish.

Iain decorated the living room, bedroom, kitchen, hall and two bathrooms in my early Victorian flat. There were multiple, very visible cracks in the walls and ceiling, particularly in the living room. Iain skim coated the ceiling and fixed all the cracks as well as relining the living room walls. He put a lot of time and effort into meticulous preparation so that he could achieve a perfect finish. I felt he was taking as much care as he would of his own property. I am very happy with the work and would definitely recommend him.

IE Decor helped me completely remodel a tired, outdated 80s apartment into something worth shouting about. They installed new wooden flooring, doors, coving, wood panels, painted the walls & plastered the ceilings in five rooms.

They were prompt, hard-working, great at problem solving, attentive to the small details and really got the vision of what I was trying to do. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for decorating in the area, and a number of my friends have seen the work and are already hoping to book them also.

I'll definitely be seeing them again next time I need work done.

IE Decor skim coated my ceiling. Despite the fact this took more work than initially projected, they kept to the original (very reasonable) quote. They were consistently courteous.

IE Decor was asked to carry out a relatively small piece of insurance work.
Iain and Brian are professional, and reliable, they arrived when promised, did the work and left the office clean and tidy. Indeed, the only evidence of them having been there were freshly painted walls.

Iain has been fantastic from start to finish. His level of communication was fantastic throughout the job and provided me comfort while I was away from my property and helped managed my expectations of completion. The quality of the job too was great and Iain had completed the job in a timely manner and exceeded expectations. Iain has continued to provide me with tips on how to complete the room with recommendations on tools and application methods too - all greatly appreciated! I have a few more rooms that I will certainly be seeking Iain's help to complete in the future. I've already recommended to my neighbors and would highly recommend Iain to you too!

Iain and his team did a great job redecorating our dining area, kitchen and spare room. It's not a big house and we were working from home but the guys were very flexible and worked around us when needed.
Walls and ceilings were stripped, repaired, lined and painted. Skirting boards were fixed and doors were repainted and given a fresh look. The preparation and work was done to a high standard with good attention to detail. They are busy guys but didn't rush the quality of the finish.
We were kept up to date on the progress on a daily basis which was really professional and allowed us to make a couple of changes at the last minute. They always left the house tidy at the end of each day. We also enjoyed having Iain's dog around on a couple of occasions! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend IE Decor and will definitely use them again in the future.
