Definitely would recommend. Cheers.
From start to finish, we were delighted with the service we received. Rocco was extremely communicative and flexible, given the constraints of Covid.
Costs were competitive - there were cheaper quotes but we went based on the reviews and weren't disappointed. Work was carried out to a very high standard.
Would highly recommend and would use again if we ever needed painting done.
On site we had three contractors, all very friendly. Rocco’s communication via email was great, always polite and responding within the day. We also strongly appreciated the flexibility with the time.
However, the quality of the finish, the care and attention to details were well below our expectations. The sanding and filling were quickly done, especially for the woodwork. The final result in the wall is alright but the woodwork is below average. Moreover, the contractors were not careful enough, despite our constant warnings, and the cleaning was not up to a good standard. To illustrate, we often had to intervene ourselves by putting masking tape in areas that should not have been painted. One day, an additional contractor came in and started to paint the bathroom without using any protective sheets at all. At the same time, we had to do lots of cleaning ourselves in the evenings (e.g. removing paint from the ceiling lighting). After completion, it took us the entire weekend to clean tiny drops of paints from the wood flooring in the living room. This was not the case in the two bedrooms, where we had carefully put our own dust sheets beforehand to protect the new floor.
Unfortunately, given the previous reviews, we were expecting much higher standards. Our experience wasn’t in line with those and unfortunately, we cannot recommend it.
I am extremely satisfied with the work of the Direct Painting Group, and especially by their professionalism and attention to detail, which were fundamental in a project involving a Grade II listed building.
Rocco Falzon provided advice on installing some Victorian-inspired cornices on the ceilings throughout the flat, and in further decorating the living room with a ceiling centre. He also provided suggestions on the most appropriate color shades for each room, creating a color palette throughout the apartment that was perfectly in line with my aim to achieve a Modern-Victorian style.
The Direct Painting Group team worked tirelessly and was in a constant communication with me, providing daily updates on the progress made and inviting me several times to point out any snag/issue so that they could promptly fix it. Each member of the team was extremely friendly and happy to help every time needed help with minor chores such as changing some light bulbs, as well as taking down curtains/curtain tracks and putting them back up.
I would highly recommend the Direct Painting Group to anyone who would need to paint and/or decorate their home, especially should the home be in a historical building like in my case. Be sure that Rocco and his team will do a fantastic job at preserving/reinstating any historical feature or achieving the finish and look that you are aiming for, with outstanding professionalism and attention to detail!
