Review by Mark Butterworth
on 25th March 2026
Mark Butterworth - Image 1 "Steve is an excellent decorator, very particular in doing full preparation, skilled in getting the detail absolutely right. And a pleasure to engage for my decorating. Always on time, worked a long day, cleaned as he went. Excellent end product, my hall, stairs and landing look great."
Trader reply: "What a fantastic review Mark and thank you very much for taking the time to leave one too - much obliged! The Little Greene ‘Tracery II’ is a gorgeous colour and looks fantastic with the pure brilliant white and high-gloss-finish of the Johnstones Aqua Guard. Looking forward to coming back and taking some pictures for my portfolio once your carpet has been fitted. Special thanks to Peter and Deidre for the recommendation - thank you. A superb customer to work for and hope to do so again. Kind regards, Steve."

Review by Louise H Hindmarsh
on 4th March 2026
Louise H Hindmarsh - Image 1 "Difficult to get a photo of all the amazing decorating Steve has done to give justice to his work. Mum’s Hall, Stairs and Landing had not been done in 30+ years. It was all shades of dark brown including the woodwork which made the house so very depressing. We discussed colour schemes and went for much brighter colour including all the woodwork. The difference is amazing. Steve took tremendous care with preparation work and as a result we did not need lining paper on the walls. Steve painted all the dark panelling plus spindles on the stairs in our chosen colour. You can see this in the photo. His attention to detail was excellent. Left the work areas clean and tidy at the end of the day. Would highly recommend and well definitely be using again."
Trader reply: "Thank you very much for such a fantastic review Louise and for taking the time to leave one - much obliged indeed! Have to say the space looks completely transformed as to what it looked like previously - so much more light! Was an absolute pleasure to help design the hall/stairs and landing; colour-drenching a space looks superb where appropriate. Thank you again and perhaps I’ll see you again soon in the future? Kind regards, Steve."
