Exterior painter needed ASAP - I've been let down


Recommended Posts

Please help, I'm looking for a for a good painter/decorator to sort out my window frames.


Last year I contacted Chris E Smith (07951251295) as he had done quite a lot of work in the area and seemed like a nice chap. Anyway he only did a third of the work and has been delaying coming back for over 9 months! I seriously would not recommend him - it's been so frustrating - I don't have much time to follow up and chase with two small kids and working full time, his communication has been so poor. I just want to get the job done now!


Please please please let me know if you have some good local recommendations.


Many thanks.

Hi DGreenhalgh,


I am a Painter & Decorator and I'm deeply sorry to hear what has happened. As a sole trader, my registered address is on my website, quotes and invoice, and on my facebook page. Every quote has Terms & Conditions which protects us both from any form of misbehaviour from the decorator (myself) and the customer.


Feel free to check out my facebook on www.facebook.com/idecorate to see what previous customers have said about my work, before and after pics with videos to peruse and choose. I have never disappointed a customer and I plan to never disappoint one. I encourage you to contact myself directly on 07872576883 to have a conversation about how your window frames will be taken care of and a time frame of when to have them finished


Kind regards,




Michael Barsoum

Hi Diane


Just seen this message on the eastdulwichforum, after someone informed me that this was on here.


I would just like to mentioned that I work all over Dulwich and have worked for Dulwich College for sixteen years, and I have never received anything like this before. The reason why I didn't return to do the next stage of your decorating was because I was worried that I would not get paid as you asked me to wait for payment and, as your remember, your mother eventually had to pay me because you never had the money! As a working father with three children to support I cant not wait for payment once I have finished my work. You shouldn't have work done if you haven't got the money.


I am currently working for a barrister in Dulwich who says that this definition of character and you have no right to put my name and private telephone number on this forum for everyone to see. As mentioned, I am a father of three and this could have effected me getting work around the Dulwich area and loss of earnings. I am able to get references from all of my clients who are more than happy with my work.


Could you please remove this immediately otherwise I will be seeking legal advice.

    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded
