    3 bed semi-det. interior paint after re-wire in Bromley
    Terry and Lee's efforts in getting the job done, despite seemingly never ending challenges presented by other trades whom were present throughout their time on site, was much appreciated and the overall finish and quality of work is spot on. Cheers

    Bedroom Painting November
    Terry was efficient and fast from the get go. Good communication with him made things easy. He was also tidy and punctual. Terry did a great job and we will certainly ask him to do some other work in future. Thank you Terry!

    Terry and his team was great. Not only did he do a highly professional and thorough job, he also gave me great advice about what would look good. He’s straight talking, trustworthy, good value for money and I really trust his opinion. In short he’s great at what he does and a lovely man!

    Paint walls
    Terry and Fred did an amazing job painting our whole interior. It’s completely transformed our new house. They were friendly, efficient and professional and Terry was more than happy to give us advice on some painting jobs we planned to do ourself. Will certainly use Trydec again and definitely recommend for an approachable and transparent service.

    Paint all walls , ceilings and woodwork
    Excellent communication with Terry. The job has been done brillantly with excellent feature wall. Terry and Fred even managed to get round the difficult curves and make it look fabulous. They even threw in a couple of extras which really finished the job. To top it off they found a ring I had lost while fixing my skirting so will definitely be hiring again for their work and their honesty. Thank you.

    Paint a 3 bedroom Edwardian house
    I hired Terry to paint our house because he had 99% positive reviews on MyBuilder. He first quoted £1.8k after seeing a video of the house. We then fixed an appointment to see the place. At that time the past owners were living there & I took him around the house to get a firm quote. I pointed out the study which had wallpaper that he needed to strip & re-decorate. At the end, we were all chatting & laughing, Terry made a joke to the past owners saying 'she won't be laughing when she sees my bill'. This put me off but I ignored it which was a big mistake. Terry called me 10 mins after the visit to say he can do everything for £3k & I won't get it cheaper anywhere else. I went with him because of his 99% positive reviews - I wish read the 1% negative feedback because my experience working with him was VERY negative. Terry was rude, unprofessional & disrespectful. He kept asking for more money once he started work, & said it was for stripping the wallpaper when we specifically included it in the quote. I asked him to use Dulux colour matched to Farrow & Ball's Wimborne White & gave him the serial no. of the paint, but he used Johnstone's & Armstead. It was only a few weeks later that I realised that the walls & ceiling are painted in entirely different colours, even after I specified ONE colour on my emails to him. When I asked him to fix it, he threatened me saying he knows all the builders in my area. Avoid Terry & read the 1% negative review before you hire him.

    Paper and paint downstairs, stairs and bedroom
    Terry and his team did an excellent job when redecorating my house. The work was to a very high standard. The wallpaper (Sanderson) has been hung beautifully with the pattern skilfully matched throughout. It was a pleasure having such pleasant, tidy and considerate workmen in the house. I would recommend Terry very highly.
