Wee were recommended to use Artur by a friend who had previously used him and we are so happy that we did!???.he and his assistant Hristo did a brilliant job or painting our garden office/cabin. They prepared the cabin thoroughly before the final paint coats were applied, exactly to the scheme we chose. I was really impressed with how hard they worked - they were very diligent and considerate to our requirements. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough!

I am so happy with the painting job completed by APpartners on my house. Artur and Hristo were efficient, hard working, polite and friendly and did an excellent job which has transformed the exterior. I would definitely recommend to anyone and I will definitely use again for any future jobs.

Arthur did a fantastic job painting our hallway, stairs and landing. He was highly professional. His preparation was meticulous and his painting finish was superb. We will definitely use him again and can highly recommend his work.

Artur was recommended by a local carpenter. He did a brilliant job stripping off wallpaper paper in two rooms and making them good before painting to a high quality finish, including woodwork. He also helped make good a wall behind a fireplace. We have now booked Artur for many other rooms and projects in the coming weeks. Would highly recommend!

Arthur been absolutely a life saver, completing this never ending project for us, the 3x bedrooms in our house, his work is actually impeccable, his very professional, he cares for what he does, now days you can???t find many trades men???s who are genuinely appreciate of what they do, except all they care about to over charge you, and you be luck if they get a decent job out of them. but Arthur definitely knows his stuff, his very meticulous about his work, and he did go that extra mile, to make sure we have a nice and quality finish, which makes a massive difference when it comes to internal painting, Unfortunately we had the most horror stories, that we in counter with few cowboy trade man???s sadly in the Wivenhoe area, have no doubt that there are plenty decent good trades men in the area, sadly was just our luck that we had to deal with the incompetence not a decent ones during this projects, between September to November 2025, the first trade men, who pretended to be a professional decorator, and his does everything there???s to it, and his been doing this for over 40 years, So we thought that???s great, which we established at later stage from other locals and residents, who knew him for a while, that his actually not a decorator. we established that he used external filler on the internal bedroom walls, and he didn???t use any dust sheets, when or he did any perp, even though I was asking him repeatedly, that when would you start sanding and preparing the walls for paint, he said they gone paint the celling first, then the walls, when they painted the bathroom ceiling, they ruined with bath and the bathroom floor with paint drips everywhere, he did not had any work attics, after few Signs of Red Flag, so we had to get rid of him, The second painter, who has his own website, said his got all the high tech tool, and use uses dustless sanding machine, and he pretty give us all the spiels that his a professional painter, and he blaming the previous trade men, who use the wrong filler ex. long story short, the first three days he called sick, then on fourth day, he start to sand part of a wall, then starting painting everything, he even painted the door hinges, and he ruined the PVC window frame by using a wood paint on PVC, which I specifically ask him, if he has a special spray paint for PVC, and he said yes I do don???t worry I???ll take care of it, unfortunately I paid him because he promised that he will come back to complete the jab, a week later while we get the flooring done, which he never did, he literally waisted all the paints, painted all the wall without any sanding, he left one of of the room half finished. and everything looked like horrible job done by a cowboy not real painters, when I ask him when is he planning to come back and complete the job, he simply said, that he can???t fix those walls, due the previous painter using wrong filler and his very busy, its unbelievable that this men think that his gone get away with, and probably his done this to many others, I will however name and shame him on the Facebook, the photos shown marks / indentation and wall papers bits still on the wall, are the photos of previous scam artist not a painter. Arthur whoever did a fantastic job, his a real painter, very professional and knows exactly how to fix wall indentations, he literally all the walls, painted all the rooms beautifully, that???s what you expect from a painter, but Arthur is definitely did his magic and fix all the wall and put those cowboys previous painters to shame, we have no hesitation to recommend Arthur, all photos showing sanded and white filling and Final walls looks smooth are Arthur???s job,
