  • Nick redecorated our flat throughout. He did a great job, with attention to detail. Nick is reliable and we would recommend him to anyone who wants their decorating done properly, on time and on budget.

  • Ealing
    Nick painted three rooms for us - our kitchen and two bedrooms - and did an excellent job. He's a real perfectionist, which is a joy to see, and the end result was wonderful. In addition, his prices are extremely reasonable and I would happily recommend him to anyone. Nigel Duncan

  • Delighted with our bedroom - great finish. Offered solutions to a problem with a wall. Can't quite believe it's our bedroom.

  • Nick undertook a number of painting projects over a period of about 8 weeks. He painted some ornate wardrobes, the cupboards in my utility room and kitchen and some bookcases. Nick was careful in his preparation and the paint finish was to a very high standard. He went to the trouble to take the doors off the cupboards to avoid painting over the hinges and the like, reflecting his desire to ensure the finish was neat. He left the working areas claen and tidy.

  • A very satisfied customer
    This is the second time that I have asked Nick to come and do some work for us. I always choose him because I know that his work is of very high standard and quality because Nick is thorough, has an eye for detail and he is meticulous resulting in an excellent outcome. Nick is also very trust-worth and reliable.

  • A Fantastic job done
    This is the 3rd time that Nick has carried out some decorating work for us and as on all occasions we have been delighted with the work that he has carried out. This time Nick decorated our lounge and dining room and we are so pleased with them. For the lounge Nick helped us to decide on colours and persuaded us to step out of our comfort zone in terms of colours and go for a colour that isn't cream and we are so pleased that we did. Nick is very polite and friendly and completely trustworthy and always cleans up at the end of every day. Nick always gives a clear written quote which we have always felt to be very reasonable. I would highly recommend Nick and have already recommended him to several friends.

  • An excellent job done
    This is the second time Nick has done work for us and again he has done an excellent job! He is very tidy worker, he cleans up at the end of each day and is always polite and friendly. His work is of the highest standard and he always has some useful advice to offer us. I have already recommended him to friends and will definitely be asking him to do any future jobs we may have.

  • Delighted with Nick's high standards and an eye for colour.
    I have used Nick three times and gradually my house is being delightfully decorated under Nick's professional guidance. His attention to detail, careful preparation and his willingness to help has achieved a great finish. He is friendly, trustworthy, punctual and the jobs have always been finished on time. I will be using Nick again later this year and have no hesitation in recommending his work.

  • I have used Nick three times over the past five years and wouldn't dream of using anyone else! You can give Nick your keys knowing you can trust him with your property. He cleans up thoroughly so minimal disruption. Nick always takes time to explain various options of finish/materials with their pro's and con's to allow you to make an informed choice. His work is the best I've seen with impeccable attention to detail. Superb value for money too.

  • I was very lucky. I have used Nick Farmer twice, to decorate my kitchen in June 2009 and my bathroom in November 2009. I recommended him to my daughter. Extremely happy with the quality of his work. Neat, clean, pleasant and very tidy. Thanks Nick. I will ring you soon when I need the other rooms to be done.

  • Nicks' attention to detail and standard of work was 100%!
    I was recommended to Nick Farmer through a friend when my builders let me down. I had bought a flat to rent out and needed a variety of jobs done from simple decorating to tiling and boxing in pipes and putting up shelves etc. I was unable to take time off work but Nick just took the keys and got the job done to an excellent standard! He also kept an eye when the gas and electricity men came and was there to receive deliveries for me. Nicks' attention to detail and standard of work was 100% and I have since recommended him to other friends. A pleasure to meet a tradesman so reliable!

  • Advertised in local paper, rang him up, will recommend to others, very good at advising, very personable, clean and tidy, very punctual, turns up, owing to the nature of the job he worked on over the hours said, very clear about the invoice. Stuck to his estimate.
