Painting & Decorating- 17 Mar 2019
Alvis painted the front of our house, windows frames, front wall and path. The walls and window frames needed a lot of preparation, cracks filling and wood replaced and this was done to a high standard. The window frames look like new. Alvis is hardworking and did an excellent job and even painted the drain pipes and filled in a small hole in the soffit board. Happy to recommend Alvis and thank you for a good job.

Hi I’m Frank. I'm a professional painter and decorator with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality finishes and a reliable, friendly service. I take genuine pride in my work and believe that great decorating is about much more than just applying paint it's about careful preparation, attention to detail, and respecting my clients' homes. I have experience working on a wide range of projects, from single rooms to full property redecorations, and I'm confident working in occupied homes. I always aim to work cleanly and efficiently, protecting floors and furniture and leaving every space tidy at the end of each day. I'm happy to offer advice on colour choices, finishes, and products, and only use materials that I trust to give a durable, professional result. Good communication is important to me, so I make sure clients know what to expect from the start, including realistic timeframes and clear pricing. I turn up when I say I will, work to a high standard, and treat every job as if it were my own home. If you're looking for a decorator who is skilled, approachable, and takes pride in doing the job properly, I'd be glad to help. Thank you

Latest review:
My partner and I invited Ionas Property Developers to quote on a fairly extensive renovation and redecoration project on our home in August, 2016. Our budget was limited, as was our time schedule, but above all, we were looking for a candidate with whom we could have a collaborative working relationship, this being a project we had a huge personal investment in. We were impressed and struck with Greg’s professional and punctual presentation on our first meeting. Unlike a number of other contractors interviewed, what set Greg apart was his ability to listen and take on board our brief, which was highly design - driven. He was also open to discussing our budget limitations and from the outset inspired complete trust that he would be able to balance our expectations and our budget without compromising on the quality and finish we required. Based on this strong first impression, we hired him. Working around hugely disruptive delays from some other suppliers, Greg and his team delivered the work to a standard that far exceeded our expectations and managed to complete within a tight schedule, with only minor and justifiable adjustments to the initial budget. We were 100% thrilled with the results. I can without a shadow of doubt recommend Ionas. Behind the true craftsman with an obsessive eye for detail and finish, there is also a thoughtful, insightful and considerate family man. This will make him our first and only choice for any future projects. A true find.
