What Barnsley Homeowners Say About Our Painting & Decorating Specialists
Stairwell and ceiling repaint after damp remediation in our Barnsley 1980s estate house. Windows draught-proofed at the same time to prevent future paint cracking. Came in at £5800 across a working week. Used Farrow & Ball trade-rated for the matt walls - looks superb.
Compared two PDA painters in Barnsley through BestBuilders. Final pick was the only firm that brought a paint sample to the survey. Wallpaper paste residue removed with sugar-soap before any new paint. Final invoice £2035. Cornice picked out in matching satinwood for proper definition.
Past 18 months and the external masonry paint still beads water perfectly. Painter we found via BestBuilders in Barnsley persuaded us into a slightly warmer white than we originally chose - room is much more inviting. Total £2444. Genuinely no part of it I would change.
