Earlier this year we moved into a house that had been left in a very poor state of repair by the previous owners both in terms of maintainance and decor. At first I had thought I could tackle the work myself but then the scale of it became too much, there was nothing that didn't need attention.
Looking around for someone to do much of the work, I found A&B Decorators and Raf.
Now, several months later, Raf has redecorated the whole house, there is nothing he hasn't done and along the way he has taken on quite a number of maintenance jobs too.
All this work has been done to the highest standards and to my complete satisfaction. Raf is also easy to have in the house, he gets on quietly with work and stays focussed achieving a lot in a day and he's very pleasant and friendly.
Absolutely recommended without any reservation.
Rafal came out to quote us for various rooms to be decorated and freshened up, as we have just moved into the area. He came to do the lounge over the last 2 days, and we are over the moon with the results. …
Rafal came out to quote us for various rooms to be decorated and freshened up, as we have just moved into the area. He came to do the lounge over the last 2 days, and we are over the moon with the results. Reliable, professional and competitive prices. He left the room extremely clean and tidy too. We are so pleased, that we are getting him back soon to do a further 3 rooms. I would highly recommend A&B Decorators 😀
Rafal did a great job decorating two rooms and our hallway. They all look fantastic and we are looking forward to now getting the upstairs rooms done as he did such a great job. …

We used A&B decorators after being let down twice by other companies. But we wish we had contacted A&B first! Raf has been with us for 2 weeks painting the whole interior of the house, all walls, ceilings and also including all woodwork (skirting boards and doors). The house looks brand new now! We are really impressed with the quality and attention to detail. He was happy to move our furniture out of the way and put it back when he was done. We can't recommend him enough! We will definitely be using him again in the future if we need anything else doing! Thanks so much Raf!
