If your in any doubt please just simply ask and I can let you know. I don't carry out painting.. sorry.

*The most convenient way to make an enquiry is by filling out the contact form at the foot of the page, please give as much detail as you are able to. *Please note to check your spam/trash folder as well as your inbox for any reply.* ** I cover Cardiff excluding the city centre. Penarth and Dinas Powys to the west. Taffs Well, Tongwynlais, and Caerphilly (town, not county) to the north. I do not work in Cardiff city centre under any circumstances. Please be mindful that I cannot give prices or timescales for the length of possible works over the phone or via email without viewing the job in question.
Landlords: I am extremely selective when considering whether to work in a rental property or not, I do not work for slum landlords (I report them).. neither do I work for career landlords with 'portfolio's' of properties whom are a major negative contributor to the disgraceful UK housing market. Please only contact me if the rental property is in a good condition where you would happily house your own loved ones, and also if you can demonstrate some degree of humility and gratitude towards 'good' tenants, whom after all are funding 'your' passive income, whilst being denied the opportunity to save themselves due to the ludicrous daylight robbery rents being charged. If making an enquiry, please be clear and state that you are a landlord and that the property in question is a rental. Sadly, experience with many (most) landlords has forced me to include this on the website.
