About
Following in his father footsteps and the family trade, Martin Fryer has over 30 years experience in the painting and decorating business.
Martin is originally from Finchley, married to Claire and lives with his family in Potters Bar, Hertfordshire.
He is a self employed painter & decorator which means you get the same person meeting you, doing your quote and then completing the work. He enjoys working and interacting with his customers and discussing what they need to be able to deliver a high class finish and a trusting work relationship
Like most tradesmen, his skill is with a brush not a computer, so his sister-in-law manages this website for him and it is more than likely that Claire will be the one typing up your estimate. If you can’t get him on the mobile phone, he is more than likely up a ladder (or watching Spurs) so leave a message.
Once a keen footballer, his playing days are now more in the stands than on the pitch. When he is not hanging wall paper or painting homes, he is enjoying family life at home in Potters Bar.
