Luckily, I have recently started to remember to take before and after pictures of my work!

Feel free to take a look and if you need anything similar achieved in your home (or if you need a 2nd hand coffee cup) please reach out and I’ll get back to you as soon as I find my phone!

It's friday, there's an amber health alert in Sussex and Sainsburys have run out of ice cream.....

Which is not so amazing however on a positive note, I have been busier than ever helping my clients getting their houses & gardens into tip top shape for the balmy summer weeks ahead.

If that sounds like something you'd be interesting in pursuing please feel free to reach out so we can discuss and work on a plan.

Naturally, it's not quite hot enough for me here at the moment so I'm off to Spain for a week. I'll be back around the 25th August with space in the diary.....and no doubt, a very red neck.

When your customer trusts you with their William Morris wallpaper..........
..............it's so much easier when you don't know how much each roll costs

Luckily, I found out afterwards and my customer's overwhelmingly positive reaction to the job meant, I could suddenly feel my fingers and toes again. Happy days.

Just in time for the England game tonight...

My customer had a freshly plastered entertainment wall that after priming & painting as well as mitring / fitting & painting the new skirting boards (even if I do say so myself) is looking resplendent !

C'mon England.

For those of you who have been waiting on tenterhooks since last weeks cliffhanger post……

……I have to confess, at the time I secretly felt I may of over embellished a tad however, the last week has been equally as amazing and immensely stressful at the same time.

The decorating project I referred to was a brilliant experience, working on communal flats decorating the entrance, hallways, interior woodwork as well some tricky floorboard repairs. The guys in all the flats were unbelievably gracious and generous whilst I was toiling away……I even came away with a chicken chow mein one day, I mean - how good is that??

The downturn came when my wife called to tell me my little girl had catapulted off our trampoline and now looks like very similar to Mr Bump and has an upcoming operation to fix her broken arm !!

Thank you to everyone I’ve spoken to and who I’ve had to rearrange appointments / jobs with, it is incredibly generous and I really do appreciate it.

Question. What happens when you inadvertently book a week of gardening work, during the hottest May week ever?��

My advice? Get hold of some factor 100 sunscreen (who knew?), frequently find a shady corner and most importantly, book jobs with clients that will keep you topped up with water, keep checking in on you and were happy for me reduce my work day slightly when the sun got too bonkers 🔥🔥🔥

I installed new flowerbed edging boards for my first amazing customer of the week and today finished up spray painting fencing and a gate for another one.��

Both were absolutely overjoyed with the results, I miraculously didn’t get burnt and for now at least, the sun's still out !

If you're thinking of doing similar or wish to discuss any project you might have in mind, give me a call and we can work on a plan.

Have a great weekend all.

No you're right, I'm not an antiques expert but....
...the door I got to work on today was certainly pretty old, felt a little historic and was just a privilege to paint. I also managed to squeeze in both window reveals, sills and frames before it rained for 2 minutes and nearly giving me a nervous breakdown.

Luckily, all was well and happily, my wonderful customer was absolutely over the moon. And I can't really ask for more than that.

Have a great week all.
