T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating review

Ranked 4 of 10 in Painters and decorators in Telford

Best for: wallpapering and woodwork with a St George's decorator

Sole Trader

Telford · Service area: Newport, Shrewsbury, Telford

T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating in short

T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating is a St George's sole trader covering wallpapering, interior and exterior painting, glossing, staining and coving across Telford and Newport. The site lists a landline, a mobile and a contact form, offers free quotes and says it takes on insurance work. It suits anyone who wants a clear service list with named phone numbers.

On reviews, T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating holds a single Google review, too few to score. The City and Guilds qualification claimed on its own website is unconfirmed, and its insurance statement carries no amount. Our view is that it suits small wallpapering and woodwork jobs, with the certificate and references doing the persuading. The clear service list is the strongest asset on the page.

On services, the record lists wallpapering, interior and exterior painting, glossing, staining and coving from St George's, reaching Telford and Newport with Shrewsbury among the wider areas. Contact runs through a landline, a mobile and a form, with free quotes and insurance work undertaken. Skirting fitting completes a practical woodwork-focused list.

The customer evidence is almost absent, with a lone Google review standing as the whole public record. That leaves the claimed qualification and the service list itself to do the persuading, alongside whatever references the decorator can show. Our view is that this profile suits small jobs where a certificate and two recent references settle the choice.

Questions about T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating

Is T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating any good?

On the evidence, reasonable for small jobs: the service list is concrete and contact routes are complete with free quotes offered. Independent evidence is almost absent with a single Google review. Ask to see the claimed certificate and two recent references with photos. The certificate itself would steady the case.

Is T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating City & Guilds qualified?

City and Guilds qualification is claimed on its own website, but no public register entry was found, so the claim is unconfirmed [2]. Decorating has no statutory register to check against. Ask to see the certificate itself and check any trade body answer against the scheme's own listings. Treat the claim as open until shown.

What does T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating charge?

It publishes no rates, call-out fee or VAT terms; the site offers free quotes instead [2][4]. That means your written quote does the talking: send the room list with measurements and ask for an itemised fixed price. Confirm the VAT position and what preparation is included before you agree anything.

Where does T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating work?

The decorator works from St George's across Telford and Newport, and lists Shrewsbury among its wider areas [2][3]. St George's and central Telford postcodes sit inside the patch. Send your postcode with the job list to confirm you are covered. Include nearby villages in the enquiry for the same answer.

How is T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating ranked?

It ranks fourth of the ten painters and decorators in our September round, carried by a clear service list and complete contact routes. It trails the top three on independent evidence. Read the full review, then ask for the certificate and references. Independent evidence rather than customer feedback explains the gap.

How do I get a quote from T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating?

Use the landline, mobile or contact form with your room list and measurements [2][4]. Free quotes, estimates and consultations are offered, so ask for an itemised fixed price naming preparation and coats. Confirm the VAT position and ask to see the claimed certificate at the same visit. Bring photos too.

What do customers say about T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating?

It holds a single top-score Google review: too few to score, and the whole public record in one rating. Read it beside the concrete service list and the unconfirmed qualification claim. Ask for two recent references with photos, and judge the firm on those rather than on the lone review.

How does T Broadhurst Painting & Decorating compare with the others in this round?

It ranks fourth of ten, carried by a clear service list and complete contact routes. The three above it all bring stronger review volume; the firms below mostly bring thinner evidence still. Pick Broadhurst for wallpapering and woodwork where a certificate and references can close the gap. Confirm the certificate first.
