Register GuaranteeAbout JMF Decorating Services, Colchester
I am based in Stanway in Colchester, and work in all surrounding areas, Chelmsford, Braintree, Maldon, Halstead, Manningtree, Ipswich etc....
I am a reliable and trustworthy decorator with over 20 years of experience catering for all your decorating/renovating needs. I take time to understand your individual requirements and with my knowledge of products and techniques, I will provide a high-quality level of workmanship to refresh your interiors and exteriors.
I can complete specific jobs to a certain timeframe while taking pride in myself in producing a clean and efficient job at all times.
Working mostly as a sole trader, I am very reasonable with no job too small or too big, working in residential homes or commercial buildings. My aim is customer satisfaction.
I know that in these uncertain times, people often struggle to find the time to renovate their homes.
With my experience, I know which products and techniques will provide the best finish that will last. I offer all internal and external renovating services for commercial and domestic customers alike and take the time to understand everyone’s requirements so that I can complete the work to the highest possible specifications.
I can recommend various paints to cater for all different environments..
Interiors:
Hallways & kids rooms - Highly washable and stain resistant for busy areas.
Environmentally friendly - Natural paint with zero emissions, whilst being asthma and allergy friendly.
Bathrooms and kitchens - Quality paint developed especially for humid environments to resist mildew mould and mildew growth.
Commercial - Ultra scrubbable paint for superior durability, ideal for high traffic areas such as hallways, shop interiors, hotel lobbies, hospitals etc...
Rich colour - Premium paint which has new colour technology, which gives richer and more vibrant colours to all shades especially deeper ones.
Exteriors:
Durable paints for masonry and woodwork which protects against cracking, peeling and fading, and is stain and mildew resistant, which makes every exterior project looking freshly painted for years.
All the paints above which I highly recommend are available in all finishes (flat, matt, sheen) and are all highly wipeable, and will retain the high quality fresh look appearance much longer than all the well know established brands with minimal maintenance.
These specialised paints are not available in any of the regular diy retailers.
I Offer a broad range of renovating and painting and decorating services including:
- Interior Decorating
- Exterior Decorating
- Painting
- Plastering
- Coving
- Wallpapering
- Flooring
- Tiling
- Vinyl
- Specialist Finishes
- Redecoration
If you would like to discuss your specific requirements please feel free to contact me with any questions that you may have or to arrange a no-obligation appointment.
Please mention Trustatrader when calling.

"I’m glad I chose Jensen to carry out the redecoration of our hall, stairs and landing. The work has been completed with the utmost care and professionalism. Jensen is both methodical and thorough in his work. I cannot recommend him highly enough. I shall definitely be calling on him for any future decorating jobs. Finally, but not least, Jensen truly is a genuine, good bloke."
