What our customers think
Below are just some of the kind words and comments that our
customers have said about the work we have completed for them
“Ian provided a first class service, very reliable, professional
and of a high standard. He always cleaned up after every day.
I Would definitely recommend him.”
“Ian is a true craftsman, who always produces a perfect finish
to his work, whether that is painting or wallpapering. I have
always been perfectly happy with his work in my home. He is
able to give expert advice on all aspects of home decoration.
I have no hesitation in recommending Ian for any painting and
decorating work you have in mind.”
“We were contemplating having a new kitchen plus utility room
but on closer inspection realised that although the kitchen units
looked tired and faded were actually in first class order.
That’s when we decided to search on the internet for a local
company that specialised in kitchen cabinet painting and came
across IAR.
We contacted IAR and Mr Ian Richards came out and carried out
a full assessment and a few days later came back with a quote
which we were very happy with. We agreed a start date and
also agreed to clear all work surfaces. Ian turned up and
started to tape up the units etc and remove the doors ready
for treatment at his work shop. The carcasses were sanded
down and prepared ready for painting, all work was carried out
in a very clean and methodical manner.
Within a couple of weeks we have ended up with a brilliant
new kitchen at a fraction of the cost of replacement with a lot
less mess and little disruption, thank you IAR.”
Richard Sullivan
“I cannot recommend Ian Richards highly enough as a highly
skilled and conscientious workman. The standard of both prep
and application are second to none - I would even say rare these
days. Skill and many years experience show in each job Ian has
executed for me as an interior decorator and at my own home
used for prestigious photo shoots, clients also speak highly of
him and mention often, his magical skill of matching and making
joins on wallpaper disappear.
Double width wallpapering (from the likes of illustrious designers
lewisandwood), vintage fragile wallpaper requiring special
treatment, through paint effects and general painting of the
most meticulous level are all specialities of his that I know I
can rely on every time.
From first meet and accurate measuring through to finish and
careful protection of elite clients wonderful homes Ian offers a
full service giving myself and customers every confidence and
ease, especially when using such high quality products.
A true craftsman.”
