Just a note to say that we are both highly delighted with the painting of the kitchen.

“How considerate to lay paper on the floor outside the utility room.”


Kitchen refurbishment

Jan 10, 2012 by Reverend Fred N. - Tytherington

I write to warmly commend Andy Crichton, his wife Ingrid (Lilou Interiors) and Steve Evans as the team that totally transformed our kitchen. We had planned to have a new kitchen installed until we saw an advert ‘why spend on a new kitchen when you could enjoy a complete makeover at a fraction of the cost’.
We put this to the test by inviting the team to advise and deliver.

Andy proved a skilled craftsman with attention to detail and nothing too much trouble. Ingrid gave professional input into a colour scheme and other (design) details whilst Steve proved more than a joiner and always willing to make adjustments on the way.

All arrived when promised and completed the job in the specified time. We are absolutely delighted with the outcome and highly recommend

We had the pleasure of Andrew hand painting our existing kitchen – The results are beautiful and he has brought the kitchen back to life, while keeping the original character.

It is very rare these days to find craftsmen like Andrew, his attention to detail, cleanliness and skill has been superb. We will not hesitate to ask Andrew to do further work for us


Redecorate bedrooms

Really pleased with all the work done on both bedrooms, very high standard, efficient, clean and tidy…! Thanks for all your hard work. Will be in touch when decided on which rooms will be next!


Advice for DIY

Jan 10, 2012 by juliet and john

Received some very good advice from Andy. We have been decorating for years but have never ever experienced the trouble we have had recently getting off vinyl wallpaper from our lounge walls. It was a nightmare. Andy advised using a £5 professional 4″ scraper, which did the trick.
