Very straightforward transaction
Very straightforward transaction. Quick delivery of product. Much less expensive that most other linseed oil paint. Really pleased with the product. First time I've used linseed oil paint. Lovely finish and absolutely no toxic odours. Will see how it weathers but so far so good.

40 Years in the trade, and rate this company highly
With 40 years in the trade, I can highly recommend this company. The products are excellent, and good value. Very useful to get over a mix of backgrounds.
Customer service has also been excellent, with advice over the phone and follow up calls, as well as smooth delivery. Whether you are new to heritage works or established and thinking about a switch of supplier and products, I would give serious consideration to giving them a go.

The perfect product.
Had a unique sunken courtyard garden with ancient & failing walls which needed specific care & treatment and removal of decades of plastic paint. Did a lot of research about breathable products. Did many trials and tests. This companies solution was head and shoulders above the rest with great communication and advice prior & during the test application. A great British company.

Great Mineral paint
Being new to the use of mineral paint I was not sure what to expect, but I have been amazed with this great breathable product. In re painting the walls of our old timber framed farmhouse it goes on well and seals beautifully after curing. It initially goes on translucent and rapidly turns and darkens over r are hours and days..

Dear Andrew, thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are so pleased that you chose to use our breathable masonry paint on your timber framed farmhouse. Thanks also for mentioning what to expect from the curing process and that it take a few days to appreciate the final finish.

Excellent company
Excellent company. Very good prices compared to other companies that seem to over inflate their prices because these are specialist, hard to find products. Fast dispatch and reasonable delivery charge.

Glad that this excellent traditional product line is readily available again. Very easy to apply and more importantly, reapply and maintain than other polymeric products.
Great service and speedy delivery. Can’t ask for more really.

Excellent company. The director even phoned me to let me know the paint was being dispatched, even though with it being Christmas I expected it to be dispatched in new year.
Companies with this level of customer service are few and far between nowdays.
