    "For over 15 years Larry Cross has been our go-to interior and exterior decorator for our home and our apartment. The small family team of painters led by Larry are highly professional with exceptional attention to detail and a thorough and up to date knowledge and understanding of available and suitable materials to suit the surface to be worked on. Larry has an in-depth knowledge of joinery and prepares and paints accordingly. Larry and his team have always treated us and our properties with… respect and care. All work has been completed within the agreed time frame. I highly recommend this firm for any painting projects."

    "I found Larry and his team very easy to work with. They did a very good internal painting job for me (Lounge, hallway, bedroom plus some other touch ups as required) and I would not hesitate to use them again. I found them professional, well organised, tidy in their work and engaged."

    "Larry, Immanuel & did a fantastic job painting our house. We've had quite a few comments saying what a good job they did from friends. They were professional, punctual and reliable and tidied up each day. When they said they'd do something they did. Communication was excellent, especially when it came to additional costs over their estimates - they'd let us know beforehand. On top of all this, they are really nice people and a pleasure to deal with. I can't recommend them highly… enough."

    "I've used Larry and the team from LJ Decorators a number of times over the last few years. Earlier this year I asked them to come in and repaint several areas of the house that were showing signs of wear. This included the bedroom, ensuite and kitchen areas. I was impressed with the attention to detail, approach to the work and most importantly the effort to ensure the new paint matched the existing color in the house.

    As I've come to expect the job was completed to my satisfaction, on time… and for the price I expected to pay.

    When you hear Larry's story including his years of painting experience, it's easy to understand why he does a great job. Most of us can weld a paint brush. However producing a finished result that looks amazing takes experience and confidence.

    The ratings on this site only allow a rating up to 100%. To be clear, this is one of only 3 tradesmen I'd give a 110% rating to. The other two are my plumber and the whiteware repair person.    "

    "Larry provided a seamless service in painting the exterior of our large house in Khandallah. He put us in contact with a colour consultant and builder, arranged cleaning of the paintwork and managed the scaffolding. Larry and his team took care with the painting and completed the work to a high standard. Larry did what he said he would and communicated well with us. He and all his team were pleasant and polite to have around. I recommend him highly."

    He painted white a high ceiling in our lounge which has exposed beam and not one dribble of paint ran down the dark beams. He has since done several other jobs all to the same top standard..    "
