Job: December 2023 - painting living room including ceiling, coving, skirting boards, 3 doors and a window.
Look no further! From initial contact right through to completion Richard was always professional, courteous, considerate and respectful. He was totally unfazed by having to accommodate my unique personal circumstances. Richard is knowledgeable about his trade, has excellent communication skills, and is able to explain what needs to be done.
He arrives on time and is a tidy worker. The quality of his work is outstanding - he even decided to give my walls an extra coat of paint because the finish (due to how the walls had been decorated previously) wasn’t as good as he wanted it to be.
I have already recommended Richard to friends, and I intend to ask him to come back to do my kitchen and bathroom.

Richard painted my sash and case windows, inside and out. Also repainted my kitchen and hall. I'm delighted with the finish. Genuinely nice guy who pays attention to the details and does a thorough job.

Richard came and decorated 4 rooms in our house including woodwork and radiators.
He was polite, courteous, reliable and thorough. He was most accommodating when it came to changing the colour palette at last minute and was very helpful in making suggestions about what colours would work in the rooms.
I would definitely recommend him and we will be asking him to do some more work for us next year. He’s a very decent chap and very reasonably priced work, 5 stars!

Richard recently painted the hall in our new house which needed painted from head to toe - ceilings, woodwork, stairs, walls. He was meticulous in his preparation, sanding the wood and filling cracks in the walls and the finished article looks fantastic - he has completely transformed the hall. I would highly recommend Richard. He is a hard worker and great painter.

Richard redecorated a large part of our flat, covering a wide range of work from external windows, to ceiling and cornices, wood work, and problem areas on walls showing cracks. His preparation work is diligent, he is astute, has the right equipment for the task (eg spray for cornice s), delivers high professional standards. Above all, I really valued his level of engagement with the job at hand. In our case, we were getting our flat ready for sale and Richard’s advice, ideas and support with problem solving was invaluable. He run the extra mile to help me, which demonstrates that Richard does not just enjoy the motion of redecoration but is also genuinely keen to understand and meet the needs of his clients. We feel very grateful for his professional work and his extremely friendly and considerate ways!

Richard painted the entire buy-to-let flat. He did a really great job within the agreed time frame. He was so helpful with any unforeseen repairs and can turn his hand to most repair jobs over and above his excellent decorating skills. He was a delight to work with and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to family and friends.

Richard does brilliant work - he's got a great eye for detail, cares about getting it right, takes the time needed, and does a really good job of cleaning up after himself. He's also a nice guy, and having him in your space isn't at all an awkward experience. He painted my whole flat and did a brilliant job. Have already recommended him to friends who have been similarly pleased.

Richard quoted a fair price for the work to be completed which included priming walls, wallpapering, painting as well as prepping and painting a lot of woodwork. He completed two large rooms, a hall, boxroom as well as all the internal woodwork.

Richard has great attention to detail and is extremely reliable. He's very knowledgable about the products he uses and is a great sounding board. He's also just a really nice guy. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Review Comments
My hall was required to be redecorated by having the walls papered and some repair work needed for part of the ceiling. Richard gave me an estimate and quotation for the job, explaining in detail what he would do. He began the job by painting the woodwork and preparing the walls for redecoration. During the next few days he papered the walls meticulously with great care, and freshly painting the ceiling. The finished job was even better than I could have imagined. So it's fair to say that due to his skill and expertise, Richard did a superb job, improving the overall look of the hall. I would whole heartedly recommend Richard to anyone looking for a thoroughly professional decorating job. He is personable and friendly, keeping you well informed as to what he is doing and the reasons for it. He is also impeccably tidy, cleaning up after him once the days work has been completed.

Richard carried out the wallpapering at our city centre bar.

It wasn’t the easiest job as the wallpaper was a jungle pattern.

The finish was perfect everything was aligned with no creased areas. Work was carried out in the agreed timescales.

Would highly recommend and use again.

Richard did a great job in decorating my flat. He is very attentive to detail and took the time to apply solutions to the issues I had with uneven ceilings, with the end result being to a high standard. He did an extra piece of work externally without any question, which was brilliant. Would definitely recommend and would hire again if required.

Great value for what he delivers. Closer to an artist than a decorator. Knows everything about each finish that is needed and applies ample experience in delivering a top quality job.

Richard decorated whole house prior to selling.
High standard of workmanship carefully carried out with minimum disruption and mess. He has already carried out further work at my home and work for a neighbour . Would definitely use his services again.
Highly recommended.

Richard did a brilliant job painting our house. He was always very friendly and polite and really helpful, he even fixed my back gate for me when he noticed it was hanging squint (with permission of course!). The work was completed to an extremely high standard and with the timeframe agreed.

Strip, line & paint livingroom & hall & paint woodwork:
Absolutely fantastic job carried out by Richard - cannot recommend highly enough. Richard is very professional, thorough and hardworking, and his painting skills and workmanship are excellent. He has totally transformed my tired looking tenement flat, all within his initial time estimation and kept me informed of progress with regular updates by phone and text. I am really delighted with his completed work and have no hesitation in recommending Richard to others.

Richard done a brilliant job and I would happily recommend him to friends, family and anyone else.

He was understanding of the time constraints I had, was very punctual, courteous, communicated well and did the job to a very high standard.

We got two rooms stripped of wallpaper, prepared, lined, painted and some feature walls. Very happy with the finish and much better than other decorators I have used in the past.
