Testimonials For Painting and Decorating


Highest standard ...

Mark has carried out work on our house (c 1915) on two occasions (2023 and 2024) and we are extremely happy with his work and will be using him again for any future painting. He is very knowledgeable, very prompt to respond to any enquiries, always punctual and reliable. His work is of a very high standard and he looks after surrounding areas and leaves everything clean and tidy after he finishes. Very happy! Many thanks Mark! See you next time.

Maree, Gosport


Thanks again for a great job ...

Mark Williams has recently completed decorating two rooms in my house and I would highly recommend him. He was available quickly to give a quote and gave realistic timelines on when he would be able to carry out the work. His work was to the highest standard and he left the house immaculate after completing the work. The price I paid was more than reasonable and in fact lower than quoted. I found Mark to be very trustworthy and I would definitely use him again for further decorating work.

Maree, Gosport


Delighted with the standard of work ...

I was delighted to find that Mark Williams, who had done extensive work for us when we first moved into our house over 30 years ago, was still working in our area. He is a friendly, trustworthy and hardworking man very punctual and his estimates are fair. We found him to be very understanding and accommodating when due to unforeseen circumstances we had had to delay work booked in. We are delighted with the standard of his work and will definitely use his services again.

Mrs J Cousins, Gosport


Mark is totally trustworthy ...

Mark has done work for us over a period of 40 years. I have no hesitation in recommending him as his work is always of a high standard with the resultant high quality finish. He is well organised and at the end of a working day materials are put away tidily. Mark is good to his word and will turn up for work at the time agreed, unlike many trades people! He has an eye for detail and takes care to ensure that the preparation work is completed diligently. Estimates are delivered promptly and subsequent queries responded to quickly. Mark is totally trustworthy and many times we have left him a key so he can work while we are out or are away.

A and P, Gosport


Quality and Trust ...

Mark is not only a quality painter and restorer, he provides a great service. We bought a holiday flat which needed a total make-over. On contacting Mark, he made it clear that he was booked up for some time, which is a good sign. Mark turned up for the site visit and clearly saw what needed doing. Not only did walls, ceilings, doors, door frames, cupboards and radiators need painting, there was considerable filling required, not to mention a ceiling to be plastered. As we do not live nearby, we left a key for Mark to gain access and carry out the work. We are very pleased with outcome.

Peter Howard, Customer, Gosport


1st class job done very well ...

I saw Mark's van at a neighbour's flat and got in contact, as I wanted a bedroom and kitchen decorated. When Mark came round to estimate, he advised that it would be 8/10 weeks to wait as he was booked up fully and only does one job at a time this was great to hear and gave me confidence in booking. The estimate was very fair and a 1st class job done very well and on time with no extras, also knows other general building maintenance services if needed. I will have no hesitation in booking again for other rooms to be done.

Chris Woods, Gosport


Thank you for all your hard work ...

I found Mark to be a very reliable tradesman. His clean and tidy standards of work were excellent, taking great pride in his work as if it was his own. He decorated the outside of my property last year; since then I've gone on to have three rooms decorated by him.

Mrs Adams, Gosport


Very happy ...

Mark decorated our stairs and landing which required both painting and wallpaper hanging. He was hard working, trustworthy with excellent timekeeping. The finish looks good and we are happy with the end result.

Doug and Helen, Gosport


Bill LOVES his room ...

Mark provides a professional and reliable service. The work was extremely neat, with no mess left behind at all. The end result is fantastic, with excellent attention to detail. The join of the feature wall is faultless and looks amazing.

Jo, Gosport


Stairs, Landing, Doors ...

Mark Williams recently painted my hall, stairs and landing including 6 normal doors and 2 bifold. He has done an excellent job and l am very happy with his work. He was prompt each day and left the place tidier than when he arrived. Not only did he do a fantastic job but he had a 10 week old puppy to contend with at times. I would recommend Mark in a heartbeat and l enjoyed his humour too. A professional through and through.

Mrs C Colthart, Gosport


Flat Re–furb

Mark completely redecorated my two bedroomed maisonette in a month. The property was in dire need of an update, with wood chip walls and artex ceilings, he removed the numerous layers of wallpaper, skimmed all the walls and ceilings and then painted all the walls, ceilings, skirting boards, doors and door frames. The result was impressive, much better than I had imagined, the flat looks modern with clean lines throughout. Mark kept in regular contact making suggestions and updates. I would definitely recommend Mark to friends and family. Thank you Geraldine.

Geraldine Torrens, Gosport


Would Highly Recommend

Mark wallpapered one wall in my lounge, painted the rest and painted kitchen and bathroom. His work was to a high standard, quick and professional. He left everything tidy at the end of the day. He was very accomodating, running round picking up my keys and dropping them off wherever I wanted him to. I will definitely get him back to decorate my hall and bedroom and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone wanting a professional clean job carried out.

Lisa Reed, Gosport


A Decorator In Demand!

On recommendation from a neighbour we used Mark's services to give a facelift to our hall, stairs and landing. This work was undertaken two or three weeks ago and we would have no hesitation in recommending Mark to others. The prep work was thoroughly undertaken and the finished job was excellent, nothing was too much trouble. Mark worked quickly and quietly and turned up promptly at the agreed time each morning. Will definitely use his services again. However don't expect the work to be undertaken at short notice because as you would expect from a popular decorator you do have to wait a while for him to fit you in.

Len & Margaret, Hardway, Gosport


Highest recommendation

Mark was recommended to me by the company we buy all our carpets from when told them I was looking for a good decorator to do a full redecoration of our main bedroom. I'd recently had another company in to do the sitting room who failed to meet my high standards expectations. Mark has just completed the work today and I have to say he is easily the best decorator we have come across in years. Exemplary standard of work from preparation through to the finished product. Up until about 10 years ago I used to do all my own painting and decorating. I might have taken much longer to do the work but the standard of workmanship was pretty high. Mark is the first person bar one other a few years ago who was stupidly expensive, who meets or beats that level of quality expectation. He's neat and tidy at all times and offered to move heavy items back into the room before leaving. He did a small extra task in the kitchen and didn't ask for any extra money, which I would have happily paid out. A quiet worker around the house, you'd hardly know he was there. The odd cup of tea to keep him fortified and a chance for a quick social chat, just so I got to know him a bit better – l like that. His price for the job was very reasonable and certainly represented excellent value for money given the quality of his work. I won't be looking any further than Mark for future jobs and at the end of the day, that the highest recommendation one can offer.

Graham Avison, Gosport


Hard–working, trustworthy – reliable

Mark has decorated our conservatory, lounge, dining room, stairs, landing and down stairs cloak room – much of this work was undertaken whilst we were away on holiday for two weeks with Mark keeping us updated via text. We were absolutely delighted with the end product – the standard of Mark's work is superb, everywhere was left clean and spotless too. We highly recommend Mark as a skilled trustworthy and reliable person to employ and will be using his services again in the near future. P.S. he works even harder if you supply him with "pickup" chocolate biscuits which he enjoys with his coffee.

Customer, Gosport


Entire redecoration of flat in February 2019

When we moved into this area we were at a loss to find a reliable decorator. However it was recommended to us that we should contact Mark Williams because he has an outstanding reputation for reliability and high class workmanship. Bearing in mind we were complete strangers to this area and over the years we have lived in various parts of the UK, we have to admit Mark was like a saviour to us. He was prompt in returning our phone calls and when he visited our property, nothing was too much trouble to ensure the works were carried out within our tight timescale. His level of workmanship surpasses anything we have seen in other locations combined with his promptness and tidy ness on site. Mark has a very friendly and professional attitude when dealing with his customers. Overall we think Mark is an outstanding tradesman and would not hesitate in recommending him for his work skills and we are certain that when you use Mark for your next decorating project, you will not be disappointed, only IMPRESSED.

Mike and Sims


We respect and trust Mark

Following our fairly disastrous DIY attempt at painting our bathroom and airing cupboard doors, Mark stepped in at our request to rectify the situation. We are really delighted with the results of Mark's hard work and were impressed by the fact that he carried out the work cleanly and efficiently. Mark treated our home with respect and we were able to have complete trust in him. We would definitely use Mark's services again and would have no hesitation recommending him to anyone else.

Maggie & Wayne Jones


Highly recommended painting and decorating

Mark has done work for us for over 35 years and he has always been conscientious. He gives prompt estimates and keeps us informed regarding when work will be carried out. He is totally trustworthy. We have regularly left him to work while we have been away or just out. He cleans and tidies up at the end of each day, leaving his equipment in places convenient to us. Mark sets himself high standards and consequently his services are always in demand.

Anne and Pete, Gosport, January 2018


Immaculate - I did not find one fault/mistake

Having hired Mark to paint my living room, stairs and bedroom I would highly recommend his work – and I am fussy! There were many holes in the walls following shelves and sockets which he removed and filled perfectly. The end result was immaculate, I can honestly say I did not find one fault/mistake, and I checked everywhere! I did not know Mark before he started the work but from day one I was confident to leave him in my house whilst I was at work and for him to lock up again. He kept everywhere as clean and tidy as he could and listened to any points I made and helped with suggestions for the finished look. I would highly recommend his work if you want a professional job done at a fair price.

Katy M, December 2018 (Gosport)


Pleased With Painting and Decorating Work

Mark, Thank you very much for a great job on our lounge/diner in House Farm Road. We are very pleased with it and would have no hesitation in recommending you.

Roy & Pat Adams, July 2018 (Gosport)


No Hesitation In Recommending

Mark has recently re-decorated our hall, stairs and landing, his work is of a very high standard and we are really pleased. He was very neat, tidy and reliable. We were also grateful that Mark was flexible and able to come back a few weeks later to finish off once some other home improvements had been completed. Can highly recommend. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Mark to do more decorating for us.

Neil and Sarah, September 2017


High Standards

If you are looking for a top class local decorator, look no further than Mark Williams. Mark has recently completely decorated two rooms in our home and we cannot fault him. He turns up exactly when he says he will, prepares, carries out, and finishes each element of the work to the highest of standards. He then cleans up thoroughly after himself and all in all provides a first class service. Shortly Mark will be returning to decorate the rest of our home and once done, we cannot wait to have friends and relatives around to show them what a difference Mark has made. We should also add he is honest and totally trustworthy. We both work and had no qualms when leaving our keys with him.
Thoroughly recommended.

Mr. and Mrs. Hayward (Lee-on-the-Solent)


Complete Trust.

We went away for 3 days and left Mark to paint and wallpaper our Kitchen/Family room. What an amazing job he did! Would recommend him. Totally trustworthy, lovely to come back to a finished job and always clean and tidy.

Alun & Toni (Gosport)


Professional and tidy.

I would highly recommend Mark for any decorating job. He has just completed several rooms in my house, very tidy and clean. He is reliable and trustworthy. Honest with time and cost. Provided helpful professional advice and was very friendly.

Gosport Customer


Weather beaten wrought iron railings .

Come and admire Mark's painstaking work for yourself. Our house on Stoke's Bay, exposed to extremes of weather, now looks like new after he has decorated the outside, including 40 metres of wrought iron railings. Mark is honest and trustworthy, working unobtrusively and discretely in our home.

T and D Coombes, Alverstoke


Competitive rates.

Mark has worked for us for over 15 years. His rates are competitive, he is entirely reliable and the quality of his work meets the exacting standards required of a listed building. I can thoroughly recommend him."

T and J Barton, Alverstoke


Working alongside other professionals.

I own a company that installs bathrooms and kitchens and when required Mark has undertaken the decorating on our behalf. He has always been a reliable and trustworthy person who gets on well with the clients. His work is excellent and he is always tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending Mark.

M Pone, Homestyle Property Services


Whole house redecorated.

Mark decorated my entire interior earlier this year. I was very pleased with the standard of his work which had been recommended by my sister.

J Stowe, Gosport


Completely trusted with keys.

Mark is a very competent painter. I have had a couple of rooms decorated by him now. Each time more than welcome with the result. Have no worries leaving keys with him. Even the dogs were happy with him coming and going. Very clean and tidy. Always on time. Would recommend to anyone.
