Painting and decorating has been our craft since 1959. Over the years we have broadened our service offering to include the complete renovation of residential and commercial properties. John Campbell Lindsay established the business in 1959 and laid down the company values of craftsmanship, client service and professional ethics.

The business is now under the watchful eye of Mr Lindsay's grandson, Chris Green and his trusted team who continue to deliver those same values today. The driving force behind JC Lindsay is a close-knit team of professionals who have pooled their diverse range of skills and expertise from various fields to ensure the smooth running of the company.
Services
JC Lindsay of Edinburgh was founded by John Campbell Lindsay. The company began as a painting and decorating firm with a strong belief in the values of fine craftsmanship and excellent client service. Our business has grown over the years and we now offer one point of contact for complete residential and commercial property renovations.
Our business was built on painting and decorating, and we believe we're masters of our craft. Every interior decoration project we undertake is carried out meticulously from the initial preparation to the final coat of paint. How we approach each job is as important to us as the work itself. Our work ethic and process are designed to ensure we always deliver the best service to our clients.
JC Lindsay undertake eternal restoration and decoration for residential and commercial properties to impeccable standards. We employ the highest levels of craftsmanship and ensure we adhere to building regulations and listed building compliance. Our clients include the Scotch Whisky Heritage Centre at Castlehill and Christ Church at Holy Corner, both in Edinburgh.
When we undertake a home refurbishment our craftsmen will always aim to exceed our clients' expectations. Our heritage lies in painting and decorating, which is always the last task in any refurbishment, but we know that to achieve the perfect finish, every step in the process must be carried out correctly and with the end result in mind.
The modern kitchen must fulfil a variety of functions and be built around the needs of the homeowner. JC Lindsay have the skills, experience and the team to transform any kitchen from a simple upgrade to an open-plan space which includes a dining and family area. As ever, our watchwords are craftsmanship and service and we have the following process in place to deliver a client experience that's second to none.

Chris Green took over the refurbishment of our flat after we had to get rid of the previous contractor, whose work was shoddy and who continually refused to answer emails, texts and phone calls. Following a recommendation, we asked Chris to take over with some apprehension, as few builders are prepared to do that, and owing to Covid we were unable to meet him for two months, but had to rely on emails and phone calls. But he did a first class job, renovating our flat which we had had to gut completely. He kept us informed of progress regularly, and when we were finally able to meet him, we were

Outstanding on every level from first contact until completion of job - communication, reliability, level of service, quality of workmanship, value for money, and perhaps most importantly, and what makes the real difference, empathy with the client. Chris Green and his team of dedicated professionals planned and carried out a fairly extensive upgrade of our neglected Victorian flat, installing a full central heating system, electrical rewire, and transforming our kitchen, bathroom and WC/cloakroom in a few short weeks. Any small problems which cropped up were dealt with swiftly and with imagination

We have used Lindsay's several times in the past. This was a big job - complete outside painting of our house. They were great. They pointed out some timberwork in poor condition and offered to get their joiner to fix it. This is the kind of initiative I appreciate. The workmanship was excellent and their tidiness is always a hallmark of their service. We like their people, too. Friendly and courteous. Well done, Lindsay's.
