Another great job from Splash of Colour
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.

Exterior woodwork - Excellent job as usual
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.

Expert work on Victorian railings
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!

Excellent work duplicated
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.

Delighted.
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 Excellence
‘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.

Dreams Come True partnership review
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.

Victorian apartment renovations.
Splash of Colour is an exceptional painting and decorating company who in my opinion is second to none. Not only is their preparation and painting to an extremely high standard but their professionalism, communication and customer care are top class. It has been a pleasure having Shaun and his team in our Victorian flat carrying out the renovation of the living room, large hall, basement stairs and basement area. We just love the new look of our rooms and have already booked them to paint the exterior woodwork and a further public room.

Dreams Come True partnership review
Shaun created a bedroom makeover for one of our children whose dream was a Disney themed room. He consulted with the family throughout and was able to bring their dream room to life. The result showed that he listened to the family and thought about what they wanted, suggesting finishing touches to create exactly the right space. He was keen to make sure everything was perfect on completion, and the family are thrilled with the room. Shaun worked hard to make sure his work was finished to a high standard for the family and Dreams Come True.

Painstaking preparation for weeks before the paint went on. I didn't think you could pay people to take this much care. The final result is exceptionally good, and I have an eye for detail. And the guys were a pleasure to have round the house. Really a cut above conventional decorators.

Lovely job by a great team
The Splash of Colour team have done a lovely job on painting my bathroom. They were quick to come and quote and gave good advice on what was involved. They spent two days or more in preparation, sanding down the walls and making good - something I've never experienced before. Normally painters grab a paintbrush in the first hour so they can get the job done as fast as possible. They were flexible, friendly and helpful - even fixing my broken kitchen door handle while they were here. Very trustworthy and responsive. Would definitely use again.

Great team to work with
Splash of Colour have been a pleasure to work with - reliable, with good communication and lots of useful advice. With a complicated timetable for the renovation of my flat, they've been flexible and helpful, keeping me up to date with the work as it progresses. They've gone out of their way to help me in this project - after the walls and ceilings were stripped, it was clear they'd need to be replastered before decorating could begin. They not only found plasterers but organised them to come and quote for the work. I'm looking forward to working with Splash of Colour to the completion of this project.

Going above and beyond for our charity
Shaun created a bedroom makeover for one of our music loving children and made his Dream Come True. He consulted with the family and was able to add personal touches that took this dream to the next level. His work shows that he is listened to the family and thought about what they wanted. The family are ecstatic and the young boy has called me up to thank me for everything that Splash of Colour have provided. Shaun is a great person, works so hard to make sure his work is finished to a high standard, attentive to his clients and goes out of his way to do things. We are so happy to have Shaun as part of the Dreams Come True team; he adds so much value to our dreams and has gifted hours, days and weeks of his time to the charity. One in a million. Thank you Shaun.

Splash of Colour by the sea
Splash of Colour have recently taken on and completed a full redecoration of our 3 bed flat. The end product is incredible and the difference remarkable, especially as it’s a relatively new build with that standard, not so great. finish. The big thing we noticed (and hadn’t appreciated was involved) with Splash of Colour was the amount of effort and work involved in the preparation of all the walls & surfaces. This is the difference between others used previously. Top things about them; - Knowledge of the industry - Attention to detail - Their own very high standards - Quality of finish Without hesitation, we’d recommend Splash of Colour for anyone looking for a high-quality, professional painting & decorating service.

Another excellent job
I have used Splash of Colour many times and have always been extremely happy with the standard of their work. Shaun has recently been working on my house decorating our hall which has involved a huge amount of preparation which I firmly believe many would not do. Our walls were in a terrible state and Shaun has sanded, skim coated, primed and painted every wall over three floors. The result is a hall and staircase that looks brand new. Shaun is always looking to see if he can improve his service and as a result is always investing in equipment and is up to speed on the latest and best paints that will give you the best finish. At very short notice I added in our bin store and garage door and they have been returned to an excellent standard. Currently, my doors in the house are away being sprayed to once again give us the best finish possible and I have every faith they will be amazing once finished.

Splash of Colour began the work in my apartment in October 2020, and managed to complete the work despite the complexities of Lockdown. All rooms were painted, and they returned to complete work on the porch, bathroom and utility area, which had to be postponed due to the discovery of dry plaster, which needed to be repaired. Great attention to detail, aware of the need for preparation for work, flexible, able to help with aspects not directly related to the job at hand. Friendly and committed to high-quality work.

Thorough and meticulous
Second time using Splash of Colour, this time to paint a very large bedroom with very high ceilings, plus a couple doors throughout the property. What sets Splash of Colour apart from the rest is their attention to detail. They want the best finish and therefore spent a good deal of time prepping, i.e. filling and sanding. They don’t just come and put paint on the wall, but touch up the walls and woodwork first. They spray painted a very high intricate ceiling which looks great, ensuring to cover and protect what was under it. They did their best to colour match when painting a door to the rest of the woodwork in the room too. Polite as always and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

We have used Splash of Colour several times so were pleased to get them to complete further work. It was a big project and the work was done Dec/Jan.The Dining room and living room were wallpapered and painted. The wallpaper job was excellent and I love my dining room. Stairway and hall this involved sanding and they took all our doors off and spray painted them to perfection. Shaun is never happy until the job is 100% perfect. They are very tidy and happy to move more furniture even stuff that was not in their way but we wanted it put in the attic. When they leave the job the rooms are hoovered, cleaned and all rubbish taken away. Having Tradesmen in the house can be a nightmare as we have experienced before, But Splash of Colour is the exception. We will continue to use and recommend them.

Splash of Colour saved the day
After a terrible experience with our builder’s plasterer and decorator in our new kitchen/diner, I contacted Shaun at Splash of Colour as I have used them in the past due to their excellent standard of workmanship and I 100% value their opinion. Shaun came to see us that day and immediately put our minds at rest. Since that day Shaun has project managed and carried out the complete re-plastering and decorating of the room. Splash of Colour could easily have taken one look at what we were left with by our builder and run a mile, but they didn’t, and I am hugely grateful to them for the work they have put in to help us get our dream kitchen/diner. They have worked tirelessly to ensure the standard of finish is outstanding. Shaun aims for perfection and doesn’t stop until he achieves it, a trait that is becoming increasingly rare these days. Splash of Colour are a real credit to the Which Trusted Trader scheme and they are very passionate about their involvement with Which. Splash Of Colour have literally saved the day for us with regard to our kitchen/diner extension and I cannot thank them enough. They are masters at what they do and as a result of their Which?

Tenement flat West End
From the intial quote consultation we felt Shaun was passionate of his work from the detail explained and the great variety of options, just the correct scope we needed and depth. From our start date the work was planned and structured for us living in our home. We had our whole flat painted including the wood work treated, sanded and painted. Walls treated and painted. As works started we encountered wood defects which did not phase the team at all... this did add additional time due to the treatment and sand work required for the finishings. Throughout the 3 weeks Shaun's team were tidy and hours of work were consistent and suitable for us. Discussion of our colour choices was helpful with Shaun's insight and knowledge of palettes. In addition, any works or obstacles we faced outwith the quoting the company could not help us anymore and apply themselves fully to all that we needed. We gratefully appreciated each detail. Overall, final finish and lines we could not be any happier. Great team and extremely happy with Shaun and his company's professionalism. Will be recommending on first instance. We have nominated Shaun McKay of Splash of Colour Painters & Decorators Limited for the Scottish Business Awards. We wish you every success.

Shaun and his team did a great job painting every wall in our flat. They were great to work with, delivered what they said they would, kept us informed at every stage and were really professional. We couldn't be more happy with the result.

First class service
The Splash of Colour team did a fantastic job in updating our old kitchen units. From the word go Shaun was approachable and easy to deal with and he kept us regularly up to date as the works progressed. The spray paint finish has brought our rather dated pine kitchen bang up to date and we couldn't be happier. He has even promised to pop back to fit our new handles once we've picked some out. I would have no hesitation in recommending his services to others and would certainly use him for any future jobs.

Transformed our house!
Shaun and team did a fantastic job painting our hallway, stairs, living room, kitchen/dining room. They stained our banister so that upstairs extension matched the downstairs original wood, and sprayed our cornicing and walls so it they have a perfect finish. We had other tradespeople in doing kitchen/carpets/flooring, and Shaun coordinated timing of painting each room wonderfully to accommodate. Really professional, pleasant guys. We'll definitely be using them again to paint the outside of our house :)

Another faultless job from Splash of Colour
We used SOC 5 years ago to completely redecorate our flat and based on that faultless experience, they were our first and only choice for reparation after a flood last August into our lounge - ruined! They offered brilliant advice and competitive pricing as before and yet again, have done a faultless job. My only colour ever is bright white which is pretty unforgiving if not done to a high standard...Excellent! I am one very happy customer (sadly not so often these days) It truly is a family business who take pride in their work and unusually ensure that anyone who is working with them upholds the same values. I have absolutely no doubt if, for any reason, I need to contact them - they will be on it - these guys really are ‘trusted traders’

Kitchen and bedroom transformation
We had a new kitchen installed including fancy lights and fittings. Splash of Colour then came in Covered all units and lights , prepared all walls and ceilings filling in holes etc. Then painted total kitchen without any damage or paint on new units. They advised Us on colours and they sprayed our old wooden and glass doors The Same colour as walls and the effect is amazing. Paint job 100%. Left job clean tidy and disposed of all the rubbish . We had a fantastic kitchen for Christmas . They also painted a bedroom and en suite at the same time and again an amazing job. I would highly recommend them .

Outstanding customer service and work ethic
After being severely let down by our builder with regard to the standard of plastering and decorating I put out an SOS call to Splash Of Colour as I have used them before and trust them implicitly. They quickly came round, saw the stress on my face and instantly assured me they could fix it and fix it they have and more. From when I made the call they have kept in constant communication and worked tirelessly to ensure that we got a perfect finish. Young Shaun even worked over the Christmas period, including New Years day, which was nothing short of incredible. By viewing another tradesman's horrendous workmanship as a challenge they have literally saved our new dream kitchen/diner from becoming a nightmare and we will forever be grateful for what they have done. Their customer service is superb, they work extremely hard striving for perfection and I cannot recommend them enough.

We look forward to having them carry out more decorative work within our home..

Unparalled Service
Splash of colour you are amazing! I own a 7,500 sqft doggy daycare centre which has undergone huge renovations. To most this would be an insurmountable task but not Splash of Colour. The father and son duo have gone above and beyond to ensure a speedy service without compromising quality. Their state of art sprayers have created a beautiful finish in our reception which I did not think would be possible on the original slat wall. We have breeze block throughout the centre and again the finish SOC have created is exceptional. During renovations we have had a number of tradesmen working which could have caused numerous issues for the painters. This did not phase SOC and despite muddy hands on the walls and copious amounts of dust the finished article is immaculate. Splash of colour offer an unparalleled service and I would be delighted to recommend them as our preferred painter.

Splash of Colour extensively renovated two large bedrooms in an old house. This was a difficult and complex job from the start with plastering and woodwork to deal with.

These guys were just what we needed. We bought the house last year and the spare bedrooms needed decorating. We had a feature wall of Laura Ashley wallpaper, with all other walls painted in Farrow & Ball colours. They recommended doing all the ceilings and woodwork which was something we wouldn’t have considered but created a much better final effect. The quote was adhered to. They worked cleanly, were respectful, professional and left a flawless job. Sadly on the last night we were broken into. At such a scary time I couldn’t have been more grateful for these guys. They went above and beyond to fit a lock on the kitchen internal door so that I would feel safe. We will use them again for the rest of the house. Thanks so much.

The end of looking for painter/decorators - for ever.
Splash of Colour redecorated our Victorian-era house over 3 weeks. That included a couple of preliminary visits, a competitive quote and great communication throughout. The job required a huge amount of prep work. A few days were lost due to unpredictable equipment failure. To make up time, the team started early, stayed on late and got more men on the job. Shaun is very much someone who invests himself in what he does and goes the extra mile to make it as good as possible. He sets his own high standard. That kind of professionalism is a rare thing. The team works well together and has a strong work ethic. The attention to detail goes to minimising the disruption. Furniture is moved with care, floors and fittings protected and the house left in as clean a state as practicable at the end of the day. The quality of the work is excellent. We've had painters and decorators do work for us before, each time a bit of a gamble as to whether the people you hire are any good and trustworthy. I can confidently say we no longer need to go hunting . SOC is our go-to firm. It's no surprise that they were finalists in the 2019 Which? Trusted Trader awards. We've already recommended them to colleagues. Interestingly, it was SOC that drew our attention to Which? Trusted Traders. We'd found SOC on another platform, one features much more prominently in the media but without the rigour of the Which? vetting process. Perhaps Which? need to promote their "Trusted Traders" brand more.

Fantastic high quality finish and would definitely recommend
We had Splash of Colour Contractors come and re-decorate our living room, dining room and daughter's bedroom including re-painting of all walls, ceilings, woodwork, sash windows and cornicing. We are incredibly pleased with the results and the overall finish of all the rooms. They were very hard working throughout their time at our house and it is very obvious how much they care about their work. Shaun's attention to detail is unbelievable and if he isn't happy with something he will stay late to ensure it is perfect. The job did run slightly over time however I feel this is due to the high level of finish which they are striving for and would have no concerns about recommending them to anyone looking for a decorator. They went above and beyond what we were expecting and are looking forward to having them come back to decorate some more of our house in the future.

Excellent standard of work
Splash of Colour painted the exterior of my house/garage and windows. It was done to an excellent standard and I was very impressed with their attention to detail. There is nothing slap dash about this company. They were as careful about the preparatory work as the painting itself and set aside time to tidy up at the end of the day. The job was done to the agreed budget. The staff were all very friendly and maintained regular contact to let me know where they were at in the job.

Maintaining excellence
I've been looking to find a decorator like Billy Joiner who met the exacting standards that my mother set sixty years ago. As a boy I trailed Billy from room to room as he worked. He still achieved a great professional job. Two years ago, thanks to the Which Trusted Trader site, I found a worthy successor with Splash of Colour. They have done three jobs over the two years. This time they decorated a hallway and associated areas and repaired and painted a bathroom which had been damaged by rewiring. The most striking result was the renovation of 80 year old, oak, front doors. Shaun had indicated that he could achieve a striking transformation when he was working on earlier job at my house. He was right and I am delighted with the outcome. All the work was completed on time, with minimal mess, with great consideration for the constraints of family life and at very fair price. I highly recommend Splash of Colour and expect that they will be back for further jobs in the near future.

External paintwork
I used Splash Of Colour for external house painting which has just been completed. I was very impressed with their professionalism, courteous attitude and very high standard of workmanship. The job was scheduled a few weeks in advance and I was kept informed up until it started. The weather wasn't very good during the project time meaning they could not work certain days, Shaun always kept me up to date regarding this. They also repaired some brick work/rendering that had parted on the house, which I had expected to get another contractor to do. You can tell that they take pride in their work and it shows by how good the house is looking now. I will be recommending Splash of Colour to anyone looking, definitely worthy of a 5 star review!

Windows and woodwork
Had "Splash of Colour" decorators round to carry out external painting of house windows and woodwork. I already had taken a quote from them to the cost of this work. Guys turned up on time on the date arranged. They had been recommended to myself by a friend as they were "which trusted traders". They certainly turned out to be a very professional outfit who pride themselves on giving the customer the painting finish that they are looking for. Could see for myself that only top quality paint was used by them for the outside painting work. Finished product looked great and will last for years. Through out the work I was kept informed, great attention to detail no clutter or mess was apparent. Previous to SOC turning up I had used workman from a different platform on a separate project with a different end result I have no hesitation on recommending "Splash of Colour" to anyone else who is looking for the best in the business. Don't chance it get the "best." Will be my first and only choice for any future work.

Amazing professionals who saved my flat from a rogue trader!
I contacted Splash of Colour to come out to review the painting work done in my flat by a person who I thought to be a legitimate painter as i found them on another 'professional' traders platform but who turned out to be a rogue trader. My flat was left in a dire state due to the poor quality of work and lack of care taken to cover flooring, prep walls and woodwork. When both Shaun and William came out to view my flat they were professional, courteous and took the matter very seriously. They could see how bad I felt about the situation and assured me they could help and help fast! 24hrs later, Shaun and William had rearranged jobs to accommodate coming out at the start of the following week to the commence work. They were mindful of my previous bad experience and kept me updated on a daily basis, and completed the work on time. For me that showed how the consumer/client is at the very heart of what they do. The standard of their work is exemplary and given they had to correct another person's work which made the job harder, the finish to my bedroom, bathroom, and hallway completely exceeded expectations. The quality of their work is matched to their attention to detail and is commendable. I look forward to contracting Splash of Colour again to complete my livingroom and kitchen and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for painter and decorators who deeply care about their profession and treating consumers well.

Outside of House Transformed!
What a treat it is to see our house totally transformed! Shaun and Shaun (and team) were asked to paint the whole of the exterior including all masonry and woodwork. Their attention to detail was impressive – both in their preparation and in the accurate finishing. Nothing was too much trouble and they did extra jobs without even being asked – e.g. they cleaned out our gutters while they were doing the soffits and made repairs to damaged woodwork. They were polite and friendly; liaising also with our neighbours to access the side wall of the garage, and it was a pleasure to have them on the premises. As the weather turned first too hot and then too wet and cold, Shaun was adamant that they would not compromise the quality of finish by starting in unsuitable conditions. Other contractors offered to start immediately but we decided to wait for Splash of Colour. In the interim they did some interior work for us that was done to such a high standard that we were sure we had made the right decision. And so it has proved to be. We are delighted and would recommend this terrific company without hesitation.

Splash of colour carried out work to repair damage to our ceilings and exterior woodwork underneath our balcony, plus carried out paintwork throughout our house including large hallway (townhouse).

They also recommended a specialist durable paint for the hallway and colour matched it perfectly to the colour we'd requested.

High standards and lovely service
So happy I found Splash of Colour through Which to decorate our large hallway and landing. I was very nervous about trying a new decorator but glad I spent time researching to come across Splash of Colour. They have been excellent. To date the plastering has been done to such a high standard so many people have commented already on how well it's been completed including other tradespeople, and that's before it has even been painted! Despite the quality, it was done in just a couple of days which included fixing badly damaged walls and uneven ceilings. Although not originally doing the tiling for our hallway, when our original tiler let us down and said the job couldn't be done due to the slant in our floor (it's a very old house!) The Shaun's stepped in! We had already bought Victorian tiles we loved and they suggested getting their tiler out to have a look who was happy to take on the challenge. Again in just a couple of days, our hallway has been transformed and the tiles look amazing!!! Wish I could share pics here! Looking forward to seeing the end result with the painting happening next, confident it will be amazing. Highly recommend Splash of Colour if you're looking for trustworthy decorators who will offer great advice and provide a high standard of finish. Super helpful and lovely to have working in your home. Thanks Shaun and Shaun!

The Super Shauns Strike Again!
Reading back through the other recent reviews, I can only agree with them all 120%! There just isn't a bad review for a reason. The Shauns first came into our lives last year when we moved house and they painted the whole place for us. We were delighted. They were meticulous, professional and helpful, above and beyond. They are that rare company that really do give wonderful customer service. This was just a small job for them, creating a wonderful effect with two types of paint to make a hallway family proof. I'll have them speed dial for all future painting work and couldn't be more pleased to recommend them.

First Class Job
I had Splash of Colour paint two rooms and two bathrooms in my flat. I was really happy with the end result. Younger Shaun had spent a lot of time preparing the walls beforehand which isn’t something you always get with some painters. The result of this was a first class finish and he has a great attention to detail. He also provided ideas on colours to go for and I was really happy with how the colours appeared on the walls. I found both Shaun’s to be very knowledgeable, trustworthy, polite and they always left my flat tidy. The work was completed within the timeframe of 5 days and was also exactly on budget. They also provided me with a carbon monoxide tester when they thought they could smell gas from my boiler so they definitely look out for their customers! I would highly recommend them to anyone and I would definitely use them again, great job!

Excellent work
I asked Splash of Colour to quote for painting eight rooms and a few extra bits, including some paper hanging, prior to moving in to our newly purchased Victorian house. Shaun's was not the cheapest quote but I respected the way he drew attention at the outset to what was needed to achieve a first class and lasting result and I also felt he was interested in the house and making it look its best, and even in the choice of colours. During the work his team were always friendly and relaxed. They were very thorough, paying great attention to detail. The job took a little longer than expected, owing to some worn out areas of plaster that needed replacing before the decorating could proceed. Shaun explained the problem, promptly organised a plasterer and was very reassuring throughout. Despite the delay Shaun stuck with his original quote, as he had said he would and I had regular updates on how the work was progressing. The quality of the work is really excellent. All the rooms look lovely and the finish is amazing, especially given the age of the building. My only regret is that we didn't get the remaining part of the house done at the same time! Thank you very much. A very reliable company which I'm sure we will return to at a future date.

Hard-working and very professional
Splash of Colour have just finished painting my flat and I am really pleased with the job they have done, I love it. The standard of the finish is very high and I have already been complemented on it. I found Shaun to be extremely helpful and hard-working. The guys also kept the disruption to a minimum and were very efficient. I would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.

Quality, quick, friendly service
Very happy with the process and from start to finish. Quote met expectations, work was started within two weeks of accepting he quote, all work was directed and supervised by proprietors to ensure the job was completed quickly, efficiently and to the highest standards. Everyone was very friendly and very helpful and able to offer constructive, informed advice when and where needed. Will definitely be using Splash of Colour again.

Delighted with the result
My hall which is over three floors was painted including extensive wood paneling. The transformation of the wood paneling was amazing. The team on site were very polite and worked incredibly hard to get the job done within two weeks. I am delighted with the result.

I would highly recommend Shaun
I am delighted with the paint work carried out by Shaun from ‘Splash of Colour’. Shaun is an extremely meticulous worker and has left us with beautifully painted walls. The guys were very reliable and friendly and I would definitely use the company again. In fact, they’re coming back next week to start another job for us!

Excellent painters
We have just had extensive paint work carried out in our house four large rooms and a hallway. We are delighted with the work done. The attention to detail has been meticulous and the job has been done to a very high spec. I would definitely recommend splash of colour to anyone who needs reliable and high quality workmanship.

Re-spraying of internal door and bedroom furniture
Having used splash of colour before on my previous house I knew I would be using them again. After speaking to Shaun and discussing some ideas of what I was wanting to do in regards to decor. He recommend that instead of replacing my old doors and built in wardrobe doors through out the house that I should get them sprayed. I must admit it was an excellent decision. The finish is outstanding and the colours used are amazing. Would definitely recommend this to anyone thinking of replacing old for new. Stuff comes up like it's brand new and more cost effective than replacing.

First class team and service
Splash of colour completed a full internal and external make over of our three storey townhouse Their work standard and attention to detail is excellent including offering suggestions to improve the finished product During their period here they have also secured a new paint shop where they sprayed all our internal doors to a very high standard of finish There customer focus and finished product has been excellent throughout One additional point I would like to highlight is there willingness to go the extra distance to help the customer I was unfortunate to engage a rogue trader who was supposed to complete my drive way while We were on holiday This did not happen and I was left with a mess and out of pocket Fortunately due to the diligence and support from Spash of Colour I was able to track down and get my money back from the trader A big thanks to the guys for this

3 ornate ceilings sprayed
Shaun and his team came to my house to spray three ceilings. All very detailed and ornate. From start to the finish of the job was always kept informed of events and when things were going to happen. More importantly, the finish on the ceilings was amazing. A beautiful flat perfectly even white, which I requested. Great family business, with an exceptional eye for detail and finish. We definitely get the guys back for more projects on my house.

Quick work, tidy, reasonably priced and an absolute pleasant to deal with!
Shaun and his team were an absolute pleasure to deal with throughout. Having had some damage done to our property we required some decorating work done in a timely manner. Having already been let down by 2 contractors we reached out to Splash of Colour and wished we had done so sooner. We were visited for a quotation the same evening and everything was taken care of (from colour matching the walls to protecting our furniture and floors). We were given a range of dates to choose from for the works to be conducted and most importantly were not let down on the day. Great communication throughout and works completed to a very high standard. We will be using them again without doubt!

My Review
We had used Splash of Colour about 5 years ago and were really impressed with their work. This time they painted all our external windows and front door as well as re-decorating our kitchen, bathroom and study. Not only are they the nicest people ever to have in your house, their work is impeccable and they always go the extra mile to make things as good as possible. In the kitchen as well as freshening up the paintwork, they re-sanded all the wood surfaces and made the kitchen look brand new. The bathroom too looks completely new as they took such care over every detail. Our study is completely beautiful now - they gave great advice over colour and have done a beautiful job of smoothing over any old cracks, lumps and bumps to make the whole job look really elegant. Love these guys! Well worth every penny!

Extremely Happy Customer
I really could not have been happier with the truly excellent job they did for us painting our entire house top to bottom including all doors, skirting and garage. They were thorough and professional to a fault, and were happy to go not just the extra mile but the extra ten to make sure we were completely satisfied. Their pricing was fair and the costs transparent. The Shauns were delightful company to have around too! I have recommended Splash of Colour to several friends already and like many of the other customers on here, would not now use anyone else.

This is what real value for money looks like!
This is what true value for money looks like!! Shaun and the team painted the external rear wall of our house and our front storm doors. We had unexpectedly had our offer on a new property accepted, and needed to move fast to get our house on the market. Having contacted Shaun on Thursday, we had a site visit and a quote by Friday. They started work on the Monday and finished on-time for our photos later that week. The quote was very reasonable considering the time required by the team to complete the work. The finish, as always, was excellent and the team were friendly, a pleasure to have about the house and scrupulously tidy. Painting is a finishing trade, so tidiness is a good indicator of the level of finish quality you will get. It can also be quite intrusive when you are living in the property. Shaun and the team totally get this and so score full marks with me. This is the second time we have used Splash of Colour (before they were members of the scheme). Their delivery was just as good first time around so they are consistent. I will definitely be be using this contractor again, and will happily wait until they can accommodate me rather than risk poor service and quality with another firm. Well done Splash of Colour!

Outstanding Quality
Splash of Colour painted our bathroom, kitchen, outside windows and front door. They are great people and highly skilful and always go the extra mile to be helpful. As well as painting the walls, they offered to sand down the wooden units in the kitchen which have become very stained over time and made the whole room look like a brand new kitchen. I trust them completely and would not use anyone else.

I can highly recommend Splash of Colour. They painted our big open plan office, meeting rooms and bathrooms.

Trustworthy and excellent work!
Splash of Colour were able to fit me in last minute to do a job in my new house. They suggested using a new technology to spray the walls because the finish would be better, although this sounded unusual I am glad I went with their advice. The finish is superb and has refreshed the whole house. Both Shauns are very friendly, professional and trustworthy. They worked to deadlines and budget. They also cleaned up after the work and gave me regular updates. Really do like the finished work and will definitely be a repeat customer.

Trusted Tradesmen who really care!
This is the third time we've used Splash of Colour and we wouldn't dream of using any other firm for our decorating needs. They are thorough, diligent, tidy, turn up on time, go above and beyond and genuinely care about doing a fantastic job. They also helped us out recently when we were let down by an electrician and fixed two gaps in our light fittings (which wasn't part of the job). Can't recommend highly enough. If you're looking for reliable tradesmen to decorate your house stop now - you've found them. For information, Splash of Colour have decorated our entire house (four bedroom, two bathroom 19th century flat with ornate cornicing and period features).

Thoroughly recommended - a true credit to Which?
I would have no hesitation in recommending Splash of Colour after they redecorated my entire two bedroom Victorian property in the West End of Glasgow and installed new coving. Shaun and his son really know their stuff and were committed to ensuring I was happy with everything. It was no problem when I asked them to change the paint colour after the original colour didn’t look right after seeing the first coat go up. They were tidy throughout the works and cleaned up after themselves. They honestly are a credit to Which – they went beyond the extra mile to ensure I was satisfied and produced a superb result. I think the real test is how well anyone performs when something unexpected happens. Two walls of the property were causing the Dulux paint to bubble. Splash of Colour sanded, filled and tried again with a fresh roller – only for it to happen again. While others may have said that’s all they could do, Splash of Colour came back again to seal the walls before applying two more coats which sorted it. They were even at the property on Christmas Eve pulling out all the stops to get the property completed. The property required electrical and joinery work before decoration and Splash of Colour recommended tradesmen who they’ve worked with before. They were also superb and Shaun stopped by the property almost every time the other tradesmen were there to co-ordinate all the trades. Thoroughly recommended.

Regular Contractor for Retail premises
We are an Art Supplies retailer in central Glasgow. We have worked with Splash of Colour since our store opening back in 2014. The level of service and attention to detail that we have consistently enjoyed with this company has never dropped below exemplary. They are prompt, courteous, thoughtful and extremely knowledgable - often helping us with technical information or design guidance when we are undertaking new projects. In addition, all regular maintenance and decoration is carried out unobtrusively and during hours that do not impact on our trading patterns. We can highly recommend Splash of Colour as a great partner to have in any contractor portfolio.

Fantastic
Already submitted a separate review. They brought in an electrician and joiner who replaced many old style plug sockets and light switches throughout the property which were larger than standard sizes - hence the joiner to patch holes around every socket. The electrician also installed spotlights in the kitchen. Splash of Colour then filled all places where the joiner had patched and the kitchen ceiling. They installed coving in the kitchen and one of the bedrooms. They then spray painted the intricate coving and ceiling in the living area and painted all walls in the property, plus sash and case windows in the living room. Shaun was really committed to ensuring I was happy.

Splash of Colour was asked to provide a quote and then asked to go ahead and paint the whole house for one of our vulnerable clients. Not only have they done an amazing job with the painting, wallpapering etc, but they have gone above and beyond with our client to help him with the process and reduce his anxiety. I had the opportunity to meet both father and son and they are fantastic guys....we are already about to use them again for another client. Many thanks guys

Plaster and decorated after renovation
Had the splash of colour boys into plaster and paint my full house after a renovation. Have to say the standard of plaster work was up there with the best I've seen. They also made sure rooms where cleaned and mess was kept to a minimum when carrying out the plastering. Same has to be said about the painting Shaun has an eye for detail and and made sure everything was perfect before moving onto the next room. At the start They gave me a time scale and the boys kept to it. can not thank them enough for the work they have done. Any future work I'm needing done I will getting in contact with Shaun.

Would highly recommend
We used him 2 times, once for an almost complete interior paint job. And he did some more work for after that. Really happy with this company. First of all a very good quote, when he came around to do the quote he gave us lots of confidence, because he would explain in details what they would be doing, how they would be doing it and what tools they would be using. Compared his quote with some other companies and he still came out the best. They started on schedule and finished within the agreed time frame, they went above and beyond did some extra minor work for us that they found whilst on the job and when the final invoice came it wasn't even on there. When the job was all done the called us to check if we were happy with the work. If we ever need more work done we know who to contact! Also I have recommended him to other people.
