Painter & Decorator

I established my Painting & Decorating business in 1984, when I was 19. I provide an efficient and tidy service to all my clients. I am trustworthy and a non-smoker.

I place great importance on professionalism, be this in arranging appointments, removing shoes to view potential work, undertaking the decorating in a competent and polite manner or prompt final invoicing.

Although the vast majority of my work is interior, I also enjoy exterior painting. Whilst I predominately decorate private homes, I also relish working on empty buy-to-lets, and holiday cottages. I welcome the opportunity to work on properties when clients are on holiday. I generally cover the Stamford Bridge and York areas, but do consider work further afield.

Our Home

I redecorate our home regularly on a maximum four year rotating basis. Our walls are painted in Farrow and Ball Modern Emulsion and the woodwork is painted with Johnstone’s Aqua Guard Durable Satin Finish.

I strongly recommend Farrow and Ball Modern Emulsion for walls as it has a lovely depth of colour and durable finish that all clients have been delighted with.

Farrow & Ball

As my paint of choice is Farrow & Ball, I often get asked “Can you colour match Farrow & Ball paint?”

To a certain extent yes.

But I recommend that consideration is always given to the official statement from Farrow & Ball:

Can You Colour Match Farrow & Ball?

2026/27 Bookings

I appreciate advance bookings, especially when specific dates are required.

Priority is always given to established clients, their families and friends, whilst welcoming new clients whenever possible.
