What Our Clients Say

Trusted by Many, Loved by All

Our clients’ success stories reflect our commitment to excellence. See how we’ve helped them.

I requested a quote for painting the windows, doors, facias and eaves of our house which I accepted. The quote was the most professional and complete one that I received... I have no hesitation in recommending Simon and his team and encourage you to give them a call.

Simon and his team did an amazing job of painting the interior of our unit. I could not be happier with how it all turned out. Simon helped me with all the little details that I didn’t even think about, not having done this before. Would definitely recommend.

I had Simon give me a quote for painting the windows, doors, facias and eaves of our house which I accepted. I found him to be refreshingly open about what was required and how he would go about it. The team Jacob, Noah and Pat did an amazing job. A special mention to Jacob, he was the constant presence every day, always on time, diligent, and hard working.

In a nut shell Dolan Trades are amazing. We have a 1950s vintage home that has beautiful plaster work and architraves and like everything they were in need of repair. Dolans was the only company that was not afraid of working with the designs and worked really hard in keeping the original aesthetic of the house, Simon stated that he was excited for the challenge....

I got five quotes to have our interior painted and Simon at Dolan Trades was the best price while also being pleasant to deal with, had a professional crew and worked closely with us to schedule and manage the work around our busy lives. We are so happy with the results of the work done and couldn't recommend Dolan Trades more highly.

Simon and his team did an excellent job painting the exterior of my house, it’s amazing how a fresh coat of paint can give your home a full face lift! I loved how friendly the workers were and the entire experience of collaborating with Dolan trades.
