I would completely agree with the other reviews on this site which call out how reliable, professional, trustworthy, hard working, and excellent at communicating malcolm and his guys are.

Malcolm was recommended to me by the main contractor who carried out structural work to a large first floor georgian conversion that I own. The final finish achieved - the flat was completely repainted including walls/ceilings, large sash/case windows and woodwork, original plaster cornices resprayed, cloakroom toilet wallpapered, communal areas of the building freshened up - is outstanding.

Malcolm provided great advice on paint finishes and was always approachable and contactable.

Easily the best painter/decorating service I have ever used.

Review Comments
Absolutely fantastic service from quote right through to the completion of the job. We are an independent gift shop called Bonkers, located on Hanover Street. The job required all the interior of the shop to be repainted. We were thrilled that all the paints used were eco friendly in keeping with our business ethos and also had the additional benefits of being hard wearing,able to be washed and left no smell which for a gift shop was very important. Malcolm sourced these products for us and his knowledge and experience is exceptional. Malcolm is the consummate professional keeping me completely informed of how the job was progressing on a daily basis which was very useful as I am based in St Andrews not Edinburgh. The attention to detail was meticulous and the finish is of a very high standard. Malcolm worked round our opening hours so we did not have to close - even for an hour- coming in when we were closed for the day. I can recommend Malcolm 100% and will definitely will have him back for any decorating jobs in the future.

I found Malcolm via Trusted Trader and would like to say that his team did a fantastic job on my new home. As my wife is expecting soon, Malcolm did his utmost to get a detailed competitive quote to us asap and then start the job quickly. The guys were first class throughout what was a 3 week job and were always easy to communicate on any unforeseen work that came up (such as additional tiling and plastering required) and the progress of the job. The final finish on my walls was excellent and has completely transformed what was a pretty well worn home. I will recommend Malcolm to friends and family and certainly use his service again in the future.

Malcom Bell interiors painted our entire house interior. Walls, ceilings and all woodwork have been painted to a very high standard. All the painters were extremely professional, hard working and took great care to keep the house tidy and clean. They all arrived everyday early and on time, ready to work and put in full days. We are thrilled with the results. We would gladly recommend Malcom Bell Interiors to anyone. Thank you so much for a job well done guys.

Malcolm and his team did a fantastic job painting and decorating my living room and study. They were flexible in working around other jobs being carried out at the same time. The finished job is of a very high standard and I have already provisionally booked the team for further decorating in the near future.

I'm sorry that it's taken me a few months to write this review but we had a very poor experience with the company. To be completely fair, Malcolm is a very nice, efficient, thorough and reliable man. But he put a young guy on our job who just didn't seem especially interested or skilled enough. We had our exterior woodwork done and, at the price quoted, I expected a good quality job. Instead we had paint rings left on our floor tiles, have paint flicked all over the sills, bits were left undone and the guy had to come back after he was finished, several of the windows are painted shut and we have rough edges and a bit of peeling on a number of the frames. Clearly, lots of other people are really happy with the level of service Malcolm's company provide so I'm guessing this was a one-off but disappointing nonetheless.

Malcolm and team recently painted our kitchen, utility, hall, stairs, and landing including all ceilings, skirting etc. The finish is excellent. The guys were really professional, arriving early each day and leaving the work area neat and tidy before they left. They also kept in touch and checked in on any specifics before they progressed.
I would absolutely recommend their services.

Thanks guys!

Emma and Andrew

We were very pleased with the service we received from Malcolm and his team. Malcolm gave us an honest, straightforward quote at the start, and answered all of the questions that we had promptly, even when he was away on holiday. The team were friendly, tidy and helpful throughout the job, and always made sure that the house was left tidy at the end of each day. We are very happy with the finished decoration throughout the house and would recommend the team to family and friends.

Delighted to add another positive review. Malcolm responded promptly to my request for an estimate, and e-mailed details of the work that would be necessary. I was happy with the very reasonable fee quoted, and Malcolm and his colleague did a great job and were friendly and helpful throughout. Would definitely recommend.
