Recommended Painter/Decorator - Thomas Lawless


left-e

Recommended Posts

Hi There,


Just wanted to post here to say that if anyone is looking for a painter/decorator then I thoroughly recommend Thomas Lawless. I actually found him on the Southwark Councils recommended traders list a couple of years ago and he's since done a couple of jobs on our house (inside and out) in Nunhead. I've never had any issues and always really happy with his work (plus his rates are very reasonable).


His sites below if you wanted more details:

Another recommendation for Thomas Lawless. We decided we needed a specialist painter and decorator when we hit a decorating problem in the small back bedroom ? large areas of new paint on the ceiling kept peeling away despite attempts to scrape/sand it off and applying a number of coats of dilute pva before repainting; also, after stripping off layers of old wallpaper, the walls looked terrible, even after quite a lot of attempts at filling and sanding! Thomas knew exactly what the problem was with the ceiling (a very persistent case of old distemper paint), and how to sort it out. The ceiling now looks great, pristine, and he also made the walls look better than we could have hoped for without actually replastering ? very happy with the results, and very grateful for his expertise.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
