Rained off for the start of this week ☔️🌧️🌦️🌂

So I made my way over to one of my inside jobs in Newick. Some wallpaper stripped in this conservatory room, and the usual pre and repaint.

Back to the exterior tomorrow fingers crossed 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼☀️

🏡✏️🗄️💻 Office room completed over in Wivelsfield Green this week…

Who would have thought such a small area could need so much work 😅! Iv spent all week in this room tackling so many years of diy and cover ups. All sanded back within an inch of its life 😄, walls and ceilings and woodwork finished in acrylic durable Matt colour matched from Farrow & Ball.

The ceiling was originally artex which I skimmed over, the old ceiling boards were white bouncy so all screws back to the timbers, prepped sealed and skimmed twice.

Then a broken van thrown into the mix for the middle of the week. Finally finish up just in time today.

Colours are slipper satin on ceiling and woodwork and duck green on walls.

Morning everyone 👨🏻‍🎨🎨

Just an update to say I am not taking on any more work at this current time.

I have been working hard to keep up with the work coming in lately which has me booked until August. I still have around 25 rooms plus more, to sit down and write up which could take me towards Christmas time if they materialise.

I do have a couple of regulars that I am waiting to get round to seeing so if you are one of those don’t panic I will still be pricing the work we’ve spoken about recently.

But I cannot take on anymore new work at this time.

Thanks for understanding 🙏🏼

Thank you very much to for the donation of a lot of paint for the children. Absolutely amazing.

The vast majority of the construction industry is full of hardworking, honest and genuine tradespeople who will always go that extra mile for something positive and/or to help others which is hardly ever spoken about but I feel it needs to be said and it goes strongly against the small minority who give the industry a bad name and you so often get told off.

Thank you Si again for offering this shed load of paint and bits and pieces just wanting to see it go to helping children!! Brilliant.

🏡 Small kitchen ~ major repairs 🔨

🚰 🍽️ This week so far … was rectifying a nice newly fitted kitchen that was left quite unfinished with old sockets, chasing in to new sockets, boxing in unfinished and a lot of old tile adhesive all over the place..

All that sorted and now freshly finished in a durable finish and looking lovely and complete.
