I was rather pleased with how the hand painted sideboard turned out, the matt finish has come up beautifully. I'd been worried the colour would look different on the wall to the sample on screen but it's really close. The pots arrived well packed and the instructions on the label were clear, which I appreciated. I shall certainly order from them again when the hall needs doing.
Read moreI needed a sealant for the windows because the old one had cracked and let in draughts. Ordered on a weekday and it arrived the following week, which was a bit slower than I'd hoped. The sealant itself went on neatly and seems to be holding. Customer service took a while to reply to my question about the amount needed.
Read moreThe eggshell I went for is lovely and covers in two coats, which is what I wanted for the nursery walls. The only niggle was the sample pot I ordered first, it took a couple of days to show up and the colour was a shade lighter than the chip. Once I had the full tin though it was spot on. Price is a bit above the other shops I looked at but the finish is worth it.
Read moreI bought the satin finish for my kitchen cupboards which are a bit tricky with grease. It's wiped clean well so far and the colour is spot on. The only slight annoyance was the label on the tin being a bit hard to read. Otherwise happy.
I have bought from them for years now and this order was no different, they got the emulsion to me well within the week. Colour matched what I chose on the sample pot. The only thing I'd flag is the postage has crept up a bit since last time, but it's still reasonable. I'd happily order from them again.

I needed a few sample pots to decide on a shade for the lounge, and I ordered them through the site on a Tuesday. They were perfectly good once they arrived, but the delivery took longer than the website suggested it would. I did appreciate the clear labels on each pot, which saved me a great deal of trouble.
Honestly the gloss I got is good quality and I'd use it again. I'd compared three sites before picking this one and they weren't the cheapest, a couple were a bit less. The ordering process was simple and the tin arrived with the right colour. Would have liked a slightly better price for a full five-litre tin.
This was my first time ordering from them and I compared it against a big paint brand before buying. Their price was about the same but they had a better choice of finishes. The delivery came with a minor dent on one tin but the paint inside was fine. Customer service sorted a replacement without much fuss.
