About
In Aoife’s words
Most of a good paint job is the preparation, and that is where we spend our time: filling, sanding, caulking and masking. We cover everything, we clean up every evening and we are happy to help you choose colours.

Helped us choose a colour for the living room and it is exactly what we pictured. Lovely to deal with. Aoife took real pride in the work.

Wallpapered the feature wall in the dining room and matched the pattern perfectly at the corners. Aoife was careful around our toddler and the cat.

Sanded and painted the sash windows at the front of the house. They open properly again too. Arrived a little later than planned, but Aoife let me know in advance.

Painted a rental flat between tenants in a single weekend. Aoife turned up on the minute and kept me posted the whole way.

Painted all the skirting and doors downstairs in a satin finish. Crisp lines everywhere. Great value, and Aoife finished earlier than expected.

Covered a nasty water stain on the ceiling so well you would never know it was there. Aoife gave honest advice and did not try to sell us anything extra.

Repainted our hallway, stairs and landing. The preparation was meticulous and the finish is flawless. Worth every cent. Aoife is the first person I will call next time.

Two bedrooms and a ceiling done over three days, with every bit of furniture covered. Aoife spotted another small problem and fixed it for free.
