  I decided to paint the interior of my house. How hard could it be? The result was lamentable. I contacted the builder I'd used over the year's who I trust and he advised that I contact Foladi @ Reliable Painters and Decorators. Keeping this post simple I couldn't be more impressed. The care Foladi and his team took was remarkable. The prep work was astonishing and I expanded the scope of work. The end result was the house having a jewel like finish and flawless. I've never given a 5 star review. I have this time and the price was suprisingly reasonable. Painting is an art. Foladi and the team proved that. Mark Wozny, Somerville.

  Foladi and his team are fantastic. From quotation to finish he was reliable and nothing was too much trouble. The work was impeccable. It wasn't an easy job, painting brown stained skirting boards, around doors and doors themselves. He magically patched a wall where an old air conditioner was and matched the wall paint exactly. He did all of this when he said he would, he was polite, friendly and enthusiastically took pride in his work. His quotation was reasonable and the job was done on time. I really can't recommend him highly enough.

  I contacted Foladi and his team at Reliable Painters and Decorators on the recommendation of several of his clients. During a time when it is nigh impossible to secure any trades at all, Foladi managed to squeeze me in at short notice in early January. He was incredibly accommodating, professional, and knowledgable. Foladi and team did an absolutely amazing job patching and preparing my walls before painting the entire apartment. I thought I was going to have to get huge sections of plasterboard replaced - but after the RP&D team worked their magic, I can't even tell where the holes and unwanted fixtures used to be! They also came up with clever and effective solutions in closing ceiling/floor gaps in several rooms. The subsequent paint job is flawless and has transformed my apartment. I was particularly impressed with Foladi's commitment to COVID Safety which was noted and appreciated by fellow residents who share my apartment building. The whole RP&D team were safety conscious, respectful and good natured right in the middle of that stressful Omicron wave. 10/10 marks for that! Foladi's quote was also incredibly competitive, and did not change even though I asked him to do two extra tasks on top of my original brief which already included (a not-so-easy) full coverage of a raw brick wall, and adding a dramatic feature wall (executed with beautiful, crisp, straight lines). He kept in regular contact with me regarding progress (as I was off site) and left my apartment neat and tidy when the job was complete. I highly recommend Foladi and team at Reliable Painters and Decorators and would engage their services again in future. Thank you so much for your great work Foladi!!!

  Foladi and his team at Reliable Painters & Decorators painted the entire interior of our house. We chose Foladi because of his professionalism and clear commitment to delivering top-quality work. From our first meeting, he spoke about his focus on reliability and high standards, and you could tell straight away that he genuinely cares about doing the right thing by his customers. The team didn’t disappoint. They were helpful, meticulous with detail and delivered an excellent finish throughout. Foladi’s prices are reasonable, and true to his word, he and his team turned up when they said they would and stayed on schedule — something that really sets them apart. The end result was fantastic, and we’ll definitely be using Foladi and his team again when it comes time to paint the exterior of our home too.

  When I first met Foladi, his can do attitude has impressed me. Even we have few quotes but we have chosen Foladi, we just have a feeling that he is reliable and can do a good job. On the first week of the work in progress, I have asked him so many questions and message him every day because I have many bad experiences with other tradesmen from the past. However, Foladi had replied me every time and answered all my questions and concerns. He had fixed all our property cracks, holes, plastering, patching and painting for both interior and exterior. The finish looks so great. Thanks Foladi and teams, you guys have done an excellent and amazing job, you guys are very professional and time efficient! I would highly recommend Foladi to anyone looking for good quality painting for their properties, they are very reliable and professional 👍. Thanks for all your hard work, we really appreciate it 😁 Joanne

  Foladi and his staff live up to their business name, being reliable and offering a quality painting service. They had to patch up my very damaged walls, leaving a smooth, even finish. Foladi genuinely takes pride in the finished product and went over the job with me after completion, to check I was happy with the results. He even vacuumed the floors on completion! I would highly recommend his services.
