Wallpaper hanger and painter needed


Recommended Posts

Is there anybody that can give me a quote to decorate a medium sized bedroom, need lining paper put and on all four walls, ceiling, door, skirting and one wall painted white. Another two walls painted a different colour and a feature wall with patterned paper. We have all the products so it is just the labour required. Please call me on 07547333593. Need this done as soon as possible. Thank you

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT USE DANNY - HE IS INCOMPETENT AND DISHONEST. Unfortunately I did use him and the experience cost me ?550 plus permanent damage to an expensive floor.


I asked him to regrout around the edge of a bathroom - a very simple job. Without being asked to touch the floor, he covered it in grout, including filling expensive pewter inset tiles with grout. The tiles have been permanently badly scratched when getting the grout out even though done by a professional. Furthermore, he filled in parts of the floor in a different coloured grout (again, I stress, he was never asked to touch the floor which before he started on it was in perfect condition) - I have had to have the floor completely redone. Where he grounted around the edge of the bathroom, it was a total mess - big chunks of grout smeared everywhere. The professional who came to sort it out said "it was the worst job he had seen" and "it looked like a drunk had done it."


I asked Danny for money back - unfortunately I had paid him ?250 before realising the mess he had made because he left the entire floor covered in white grout dust wheich he said needed to be left there for 24 hours and which I would have to clean - he admitted it was his fault, he had done a bad job, and he would give me money back. That was around 2 months ago. Despite repested text exchanges and various excuses ("I've been away etc") and promises to pay, he has failed to get in touch or refund anything. I have had to pay ?300 to have the mess he made sorted out, and even then it will never look as nice as it did before because the floor has been so badly scratched removing the grout.


Danny also replaced door handles, leaving huge holes which he said he would come back to wood fill (he hasn't) and which don't open and close properly. VERY much regret having him do work at my house.

I would like to add my recommendation for Andy of Andyman. It was from the Forum that we originally got his contact details.


Andy and Richard worked in our house recently, redecorating our daughter?s bedroom. Excellent work, and all done with great care and attention.


It was a pleasure having them here and they?ll be back very soon to do other work.

    • Kwik Fit buggered up an A/C leak diagnosis for me (saying there wasn't one, when there was) and sold a regas. The vehicle had to be taken to an A/C specialist for condensor replacement and a further regas. Not impressed.
    • Yes, these are all good points. I agree with you, that division has led us down dangerous paths in the past. And I deplore any kind of racism (as I think you probably know).  But I feel that a lot of the current wave of xenophobia we're witnessing is actually more about a general malaise and discontent. I know non-white people around here who are surprisingly vocal about immigrants - legal or otherwise. I think this feeling transcends skin colour for a lot of people and isn't as simple as, say, the Jew hatred of the 1930s or the Irish and Black racism that we saw laterally. I think people feel ignored and looked down upon.  What you don't realise, Sephiroth, is that I actually agree with a lot of what you're saying. I just think that looking down on people because of their voting history and opinions is self-defeating. And that's where Labour's getting it wrong and Reform is reaping the rewards.   
    • @Sephiroth you made some interesting points on the economy, on the Lammy thread. Thought it worth broadening the discussion. Reeves (irrespective of her financial competence) clearly was too downbeat on things when Labour came into power. But could there have been more honesty on the liklihood of taxes going up (which they have done, and will do in any case due to the freezing of personal allowances).  It may have been a silly commitment not to do this, but were you damned if you do and damned if you don't?
    • I'd quit this thread, let those who just want to slag Labour off have their own thread.  Your views on the economy are worth debating.  I'm just stunned how there wasn't this level of noise with the last government.  I could try to get some dirt on Badenoch but she is pointless  Whilst I am not a fan of the Daily Mirror at least there is some respite from Labour bashing. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/grenfell-hillsborough-families-make-powerful-36175862 https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/nigel-farage-facing-parliamentary-investigation-36188612
