Painting & Decorating- 31 May 2017
We hired Natalie, ( A Womans Eye) initially to paint the ceiling beams in our lounge and dining room, and as the results were really good, we then had her do some more work. She painted the ceiling beams in the stairwell, and landing, our big bedroom, one of the smaller bedrooms, the kitchen ( she painted the ceiling as well), plus the walls in the stairwell too... she also papered a feature wall in the lounge.. not as easy as it sounds..as the ceiling and wall edges were not straight .... part of the charm of the building. The walls in the stairwell were pitted and some previous paint had peeled, so Natalie filled and sanded all these areas, then applied the finish coat. All our beams are reclaimed wood, so some many are rather rough and irregular... so she caulked all gaps, (and there were a lot), sanded smooth where required, and then applied the finish coat of satin white, and it all looks first class now. She was a pleasure to have around while she was working, and charged very reasonable rates too. She will be our decorator from now on.

Plastering- 2 Jan 2022
Rob did a great job here and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. He fitted the job in at a convenient time, and as I was away when he did the work he gave me a video call to show me progress. In what must be a fiddly job, he left me with a lovely smooth ceiling that met the walls without any mess, and ensured that the room was left tidy. Thank you so much Rob, I really appreciate your help here, and hope you might come back next year to do upstairs!
