    Grant Steel, Grant Steel Painters & Decorators

    “Brilliant set of resources, free downloads, association benefits, legal advice and general advice, marketing, etc. The directory is excellent at helping publicise our business too. Really cannot fault it and I don’t know why we didn’t join sooner!”

    Mark Ellery, Upcycle Interiors Ltd

    We’re so glad to be members of the PDA. When we recently faced a particularly stressful and complex customer dispute, the support we received from the PDA made a huge difference. Neil was incredibly responsive, reassuring and genuinely invested in helping us find the right way forward. Even just knowing that we had the PDA behind us — along with access to Markel Law if the situation escalated — took a massive weight off our shoulders.

    We appreciated the quick and practical advice which was tailored to our situation. It helped us to ultimately reach a positive outcome that could easily have gone the other way. It’s made us realise how important it is to have a trade association that actually steps up, when you need them. We can honestly say the support from the PDA has been invaluable, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend joining if you’re in the painting and decorating industry.

    Matt & Ali Lawrence, Prime Finish Interiors
