Splash of Colour Painters & Decorators Ltd

We really don't call anyone else now - we're one room away from having Splash of Colour decorate our whole house. Their work is simply second to none - it's all in the preparation, and the guys put so much into that to give a perfect finish. They take on transforming the whole room, not just the painting/papering bits - sanding and varnishing floors, doors, and restoring cornicing. No hesitation in recommending.

I have no hesitation in recommending Shaun and Splash of Colour. They were very professional right from the beginning with detailed and accurate estimates and then invoicing. All of the work was carried out to a very high standard and we are very pleased.

Splash of Colour did a fantastic job (as usual) preparing and painting our Victorian storm doors, panelled vestibule, internal door and exterior window frames. They also refinished all the tarnished antique brass handles and letter box etc which meant we could keep the character of the doors rather than replacing with modern equivalents. Our main door entrance now looks stunning and it is the envy of our street. The storm door frame was badly peeling due to the property being south facing and the previous paint job not being well prepared. They did an excellent job of removing the paint and filling in the frame before painting so it looks like new. I cannot recommend Splash of Colour and the father and son Shauns highly enough.

Have utilised the services of Splash of Colour multiple times and they always operate to the highest standard. It’s in their DNA.

We had Splash of Colour sand down and repaint our front close door and the cast iron Victorian railings that line each side of our entrance (10 steps). They did an expert job, thoroughly preparing the railings which were very rusty with many layers of paint obscuring the detail. It took two days to fully sand the railings before they were given several coats of semi-gloss. They look amazing now, and the delicate floral details in the castings are beautifully defined. The front door is also looking brilliant, so we are very satisfied with the results!

We have been Splash of Colour clients for over 20 years and rely on this family business for consistently excellent results. They juggled Covid short-staffing and a record-breaking heatwave to repaint three rooms in our Victorian flat, and the results are of the highest standard. They have always insisted on thorough preparation to ensure a lasting and flawless finish. No sooner was this job completed than we were getting quotes for further work. Looking forward to having Splash of Colour back very soon.

Young Shaun and his team have transformed what was a dark hall, stairs and landing into the bright and welcoming space I always wanted. Thank you so much for taking all that time and care to restore the best possible standard of finish in a hall which was definitely showing its age before. Splash of Colour are great at problem-solving for you and advising about the right materials to use to get high quality and lasting finish. Shaun is a total perfectionist in his work and is experienced in dealing with the kinds of issues that might arise with older houses. It's now like walking into the wrong house - in a good way - and I am absolutely delighted by the transformation.

‘Splash of Colour’ is led by the dynamic Shaun McKay. He decorated two large rooms, a shower room and two hallways in our Victorian townhouse flat. His preparation was outstanding which enabled the end product to have an excellent finish. We chose dark period colours so this was vital. The job was to budget but overran due to unforeseen circumstances with the property. These were not insubstantial but were ably sorted by Shaun who enlisted another contractor so that the work could be completed to his exacting standards. Attention to detail and finish are the bywords for Shaun and his team. Communication was excellent throughout the project. Having major decorating done is disruptive and at times not easy but it has been made easier by the good humour and courtesy of these guys. Shaun’s dad has an in-depth knowledge of period properties and clearly enjoys restoring even the smallest detail to its former beauty. It will be quiet without them around but they will be back late summer to paint my kitchen.

Splash of Colour were introduced to me through a charity called Dreams Come True to do a bedroom make over for my son with Autism and I honestly can’t thank them enough. From start to finish they went above and beyond for my son and I, making sure every little detail was perfect, they were so easy to talk to, laid back and helpful, made the effort to visit and meet me and my son before starting the room, sending ideas and doing all they can to get everything my son needed to make his room perfect. I can’t recommend them enough, my son loves his new room and everything about it all catered to his needs, and hope they carry on working along side Dreams Come True to give more children like my son the room they deserve and love. Thanks again.
