I would also like to add my recommendation for Richard :) I found his details on here via all the recommendations on the forum. He was great, punctual, tidy, helpful, reasonably priced, excellent work and I was able to leave my keys with him :) So pleased with what he did, and would whole heartedly recommend him.

I would also like to recommend Richard who recently painted all the rooms in my house and put up some wallpaper after a loft conversion. He did a very thorough job and the house looks beautiful as a result. He was also very easy to engage with and provided useful suggestions/solutions as to how to get the job done most efficiently while other works were still going on. It was a pleasure to work with him!

I would also highly recommend Richard - he has just painted a bay window and done some other decorating for me. He took a lot of care to do the job well and for a very reasonable price. He is very polite and came exactly when he said he would.

I'm heartily recommending Richard again. Nothing is any trouble and does a perfect job. He sees things to be done too, there were a few things I noticed this time that he completed, which I hadn't even thought about doing. I'm very pleased with all he did and will be having him back again for sure. His number is 07984 146615.

I would also like to add my recommendation of Richard's work, we used him for some internal paintwork after finding him through recommendations on the ED forum, he completed the work to a very high standard, and kept to the time scale he had told me when he quoted for the job also there were no extra cost. He is friendly tidy and is reasonably priced. Extremely happy with his work and would use him again, his number is 07984146615

Yet another recommendation for Richard. He recently painted the ground floor of our house and did a great job. He's reasonable priced, a tidy worker and very considerate. Overall, a nice guy who's pleasant to have around. He also loves a cuppa so don't hold back offering!

Hi I would highly recommend Richard, he came recommended by my wife friend. We had him decorate our hallway wallpapering and glossing(his wallpapering is spot on).Very punctual clean and tidy his price was very reasonable compared to some cowboys who priced it before him. My wife has already booked him in to do the front room next.

We used Richard to paint our lounge. He was very competitive, tidy, prompt and listened to what we wanted. We were very pleased with the finished result.


He made good ceilings, and woodwork, painted alcove cupboards and a makeshift wine rack, as well as painting all the walls and wall papering one wall.


He's very affable and totally trustworthy too. Highly recommended and would use again.

Hey - another recommendation for Richard. He pretty much painted our entire house whilst we were away on holiday. We trusted him with our key, the job was done perfectly and the house was immaculate when we returned. He also lets you know when he thinks something is a bad idea which is really helpful when you're an interior decorating novice! Would highly recommend him - his prices are competitive and he is a really lovely man.


As an aside, we got in touch with Richard because friends in West Dulwich used him for decorating their period property. He also did a wonderful job for them, which I see every time I pop round for a cup of tea in their beautifully decorated kitchen!

Richard has just finished painting our hall and would like to recommend his services. He was very flexible in the way he quoted so we understood the breakdown and very prompt. While working in our house he was clean, tidy, respectful and communicated progress well. We're really pleased and he's been a lovely guy to work with.

Unfortunately Richard has had what seems like quite a nasty accident. We had booked Richard for a very big job (whole house) and after very good communication in the run up to starting, he came round on the morning he was planned to start as promised and then went to pick up his tools. In the process he was hit by a bike and is now in a cast for at least 3 weeks. Very bad luck for him and I hope he gets better soon. Obviously this caused us problems too but we were able to find someone at short notice and a bit of delay is nothing compared to a broken leg!

Another glowing recommendation for Richard, he totally saved the day for us! He has been brilliant, incredibly helpful, nothing is too much trouble. He is super reliable and well priced for a good job.

We will definitely be using him again.

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
    • I cook at home - almost 95% of what we eat at home is cooked from scratch.  But eating out is more than just having dinner, it is socialising and doing something different. Also,sometimes it is nice to pay someone else to cook and clear up.
    • Yup Juan is amazing (and his partner can't remember her name!). Highly recommend the wine tastings.  Won't be going to the new chain.
