Finishing Touch Painting and Decorating

We chose Harry for his prep work for wall and ceiling cracks particularly. He put an enormous amount of effort into fixing our terrible walls and ceiling so the painted finish was of excellent standard. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone wanting interior or exterior painted done, particularly if you have any problem areas.

Harry didn’t an amazing job - despite a number of setbacks along the way due to old walls! I chose Harry for his detailed prep work and attention to finished detail and he certainly delivered. He also left the area clean every day - including taking steps to minimise mess while at work - and especially at the end of the job, which you can see from the photos. I’ll certainly be using Finishing Touches again!

Harry from Finishing Touch transformed our kitchen and bedroom into stunning spaces. His high-end workmanship, reliability, and honesty set him apart. The attention to detail and amazing quality he delivered exceeded our expectations. If you want a top-tier painter and decorator, Harry is the go-to expert for a flawless finish.

Harry was excellent throughout. From quoting to the finished room. He was polite and very friendly. A pleasure to have. He also recommended so other “trades” and they were excellent. A great find. He took such care in making sure the job was as agreed and to a high standard. Already booked for more work later this year and spring next year.

Harry renovated and re-painted two sash windows in our home. One window had been moved from one wall to another by our builders so needed a lot of TLC. They both look as good as new. Harry was tidy, polite and incredibly enthusiastic about the work he does, which results in an extremely well finished job!

We employed Finishing Touch to have the outside of our house painted. Harry’s quote was extremely detailed very explanatory and his communication was excellent as we had to change the date due to weather delays. Our house has pebble dash which needed a lot of tlc. Harry’s preparation work was second to none and the ‘finishing touch’ is in the photos. He was very thorough and kept us informed at all stages and was very generous at giving advice. So, if you are looking for someone who takes great pride in his work, is diligent, enthusiastic , gives attention to detail and likes to listen to Magic Soul, then Harry is your man. Thanks also to his colleague Sam who helped during the first week.

To start, Harry’s communication is excellent. Harry painted the apex and the front of our house. His work is exemplary! Harry takes a pride in his work and focuses on a good quality end result. He is always punctual and is very neat and tidy while working. We are very pleased with Harry’s work and absolutely recommend him!

Thinking that my original 1930s door was beyond repair, I approached a local business who made bespoke doors. They put me onto Harry, advising that a restoration job would be a much cheaper option. I am so glad that I took their advice. From the start, Harry was clearly very experienced, highly knowledgeable and confident that he could fully restore my door. Like all good tradesmen, Harry was booked up quite far in advance. But he committed to a date, remained in contact and true to his word, commenced the job on the agreed date. From there on Harry impressed us greatly with his practical skills, immense knowledge and passion for doing the best possible job. He clearly cares about his work and aims for the finished result to stay good for the long term, thus giving excellent value for money. Our now fully restored door, that was previously fragile, had dry rot and gaping holes is now a solid work of beauty. Thank you so much Harry and we look forward to you returning to do more work in the near future.

I recently hired Harry to refurbish and renovate my front door, and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the results. Harry was not only tidy and punctual, but he was also incredibly meticulous in his work. What really stood out to me about Harry was his attention to detail. He clearly takes pride in his work, and it shows in the finished product. My front door looks amazing, and I've received many compliments on it since Harry completed the job. I first discovered Harry's work on Instagram, and I was initially a bit hesitant to hire someone based solely on social media. However, after seeing the quality of his work and reading positive reviews from other customers, I decided to give him a chance. I'm so glad that I did. Overall, I highly recommend Harry to anyone who is looking for high-quality craftsmanship he is a true professional who takes his work seriously, and it shows in the results. Thank you, Harry, for the fantastic job on my front door!

I was very impressed with Harry's knowledge when he came to quote. On purchasing the property there were numerous issues with hairline cracks on plaster and old damp issues. I went ahead with him and am very pleased I did. He's done a fantastic job decorating a double bedroom and I will definitely use him again. I cannot fault his work. Definitely recommended.

Earlier this year, Harry responded swiftly and positively to our request to visit and quote to refurbish our very tired and dated solid wood kitchen doors/drawers/cabinets. Harry talked us carefully through all the options and explained the benefits of each method. With his guidance we opted for the 'hand painted' finish which turned out to be exactly the right decision. Harry provided us with a detailed quote and timeline which matched our expectations and we commissioned Harry to undertake the project. Harry advised that the project would take 4 weeks to complete and that the most important and time consuming element was the preparation. Harry spent ages carefully removing the doors and drawers and set about degreasing and sanding each and everyone to a very fine finish. He set up a workshop in our garage and made sure that we could continue to use our kitchen throughout the project. Having thoroughly prepared the surfaces he set about sealing and priming and then applying the final coats of our chosen shade of Benjamin Moore paint. Harry advised us that this was the best option for this environment and he was spot on. Once all the doors and drawers and interiors had dried Harry reassembled our kitchen and the outcome was stunning!! We couldn't believe the transformation and the quality of the finish. Our friends and neighbours have also commented that they can't believe that the doors and drawers etc are all the original 22 year old items. Throughout the whole project it was a joy to have Harry on site, he made no mess, kept us fully informed of progress and next steps and kept to the plan. Whilst of course this quality of workmanship comes at a cost, we feel that it is worth every penny. In effect we have a new kitchen for a fraction of the cost and the quality and finish is as good as you would find anywhere. We are having no hesitation in recommending Harry to our friends and are sure he will be in demand in 2023 and beyond.

I’ve used Harry / Finishing Touch several times in the past and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. This time Harry repaired and repainted my front door, as over the summer some of the joints had cracked. As always, Harry did a first class job, his craftsmanship is second to none (and he really takes the time to prep thoroughly), plus he always keeps you informed throughout! Best painter and decorator around in my view!
