The quick way to find a local Traditional Craftsperson in Dumfries

From the first visit from John to give us our quote and discuss design and layout we received great service. They obtained permission for dropped kerb and completed the two car driveway with little bit of landscaping in two days. David, Lewis & Anthony worked hard and left everything tidy and all rubbish was collected the next day. Would definitely recommend. No payment was required until job completed to our satisfaction. We’ve since had two neighbours ask for their contact details. ??????????

Adam and Dan have been better than expected with respect to time, flexibility and the quality of the work they are carrying out for us. We have been lucky to find a business that deliver exactly what we want. Thanks guys. We would highly recommend their services.

Tarek did a fantastic job redecorating two rooms of mine in a rental flat that looked quite bad. He repaired seriously damaged wallpaper where a boiler had been removed and cracks in the ceiling before doing the painting. I was really surprised at how good looking the finished results were. All signs of damage and cracks were gone. Very impressed and I'll be using Tarek again when the need arises.

Very easy to deal with. Came to assess the job, advised on different options and provided a competitive quotation very quickly. Robert and his team started and finished the job within agreed timescales and left the site tidy at the end of each day. We are delighted with the quality of the workmanship and the finished job. Definitely recommended.

My job was the exterior painting of my house. Between quoting for the job and completion was over a month due entirely to some of the wettest, windiest weather we have had in a long time. I had regular updates from Vince apologising for the weather and as soon as the weather improved Vince was on the job and it was completed promptly to a high standard. A neat and tidy job with all waste taken care of. I would definitely use Vince for any future painting jobs. In short a top quality job at a fair price.

your quote was £1800... And that was for materials and labour... If there was any materials left over then they were mine as I had paid for them hence in your quote so any extras u did for me would have been labour costs only I asked you the cost to get hut painted you said no more than £70 but you only painted the roof so no more than £30 hose on to wall no more than £30 a strip of wood round the fence a slab at the hut and some sand round the hut... That's all I can think of that comes nowhere near £500

Sadly this company made a firm arrangement to come out to see the job and cancelled me on the day.

I am an elderly person with a disability and have limited funds. My fence was needing repaired due to the recent storm in January 2025. The tradesperson, Lewis, came to give me a quote, we got chatting and he offered to repair the damaged 6 meter fence FREE OF CHARGE! Not only that, the professionalism and attention to detail was second to none. If you are looking for a very talented, honest and professional joiner, look no further!

We ended up not using this company but was very thankful for the quick replies we received. I have posted jobs before that did not go so well. This company has great communication.
