Ok, I know this is probably the wrong forum but its more likely to be read here than elsewhere. Apologies to the Mods if this is not ok, please feel free to move it.
As a result of long standing ( and ongoing ) health problems my flat has fallen into a very sorry state of disrepair and neglect.
My Housing Association landlord has shown no inclination whatsoever to assist, despite my offers to pay them for any work undertaken, hence my request here.
Can anyone recommend a local reasonably priced, reliable and trustworthy painter/decorator who might be interested in a bit of work ? Quite a bit of work as it happens. Not all at once but over a period of time ( as funds permit ) Im looking to have the following work done.
Bedroom: Carpet replaced, re-decorated.
Hallway: Carpet replaced, re-decorated
Bathroom: Flooring replaced, re-decorated
Living room: The last person I paid to do this made a complete and utter bodge job of the flooring in particular. I cant even open my back door following the recent rain !! This room needs a lick of paint and a bit of work on the flooring.
Kitchen: Eventually I would like to replace the cupboard doors, oven and work-tops, but for now the flooring and a lick of paint will have to suffice. I have the ceramic tiles for the floor, just need someone to fit them.
The main stumbling block for me is moving furniture to allow the work to be done, I cannot physically do it. In desperation I have even contacted some of these tv makeover programmes in the past, lol.
I dont have the exact dimensions to hand, but basically it is a small ground floor flat, with ample parking for a workmans van on site. Im a shift worker so would probably have to move out whenever any work is being carried out.......hence its ESSENTIAL that the person is trustworthy beyond doubt.
Its a big ask I know, but if you know of any such person please pm me with contact details etc.
Many thanks. Moley
