Highly recommend Adobe Academy
Highly recommend Adobe Academy, Jamie teaches you everything you need to know to get the work done quick and professionally, and you get straight onto taking the kitchen apart to spraying in no time.
1st time kitchen spraying
Jamie’s support and patience was fantastic which helped build my confidence so at the end of the day I had achieved a professional finish to my test kitchen.
From never spraying before and a week…
From never spraying before and a week later already done a few jobs and a busy summer booked in.
Thanks, Jamie, for all your support and ongoing support
Kitchen spray couse
We've just finished our second course now at abode academy, we have found them absolutely vital if you want to get into all aspects of spraying. Jamie's knowledge on equipment, materials and techniques is second to none we would not have got as far as we have without doing these courses. We are now building are own spray booth and earning more money now then ever and expanding our business every month. We've gone from just a two man company to 4 full time staff in less than 6 months. We also get great deals and advice on all products and equipment Anna does a fantastic job at the shop and all the admin a pleasure to deal with highly recommend

Jamie is a great tutor him and Anna…
Jamie is a great tutor him and Anna were very welcoming and accommodating and I learnt a lot during my time on the course I would recommend abode academy to anyone looking to gain more knowledge and add extra services ti there business.
The airless spraying course single…
The airless spraying course single handedly changed my career path, I cannot recommend it enough. 2 days after completing the course, I purchased a sprayer through Anna and Jamie which saved me a small fortune. Any issues that have arisen day or night since, Jamie has been on hand, even if it’s 9pm at night via video call. Don’t hesitate to book one of the courses. You won’t regret it!
Want to spray, then one to one training is the best you will get.
I did the beginners airless spraying course with Jamie yesterday and I would highly recommend it. The one to one training is excellent, you get to spend the day masking and spraying a room under Jamie's supervision, teaching you everything you need to know and he will pass on his extensive knowledge of spraying, paints to use, tips and tricks.
Jamie and Anna are very welcoming and easy to get on with and make sure you have a great training day.
If you need to learn how to spray then Abode Academy is the only place you need to go.

Me and son Brian! wanted to push our business to the next level.
So we done our homework and found a company called Abode Academy
From the first point I contacted them and spoke with Anna I knew it was the right training courses we needed.
The 3 day course we did was brilliant, we have both learnt so much.
Jamie is very knowledgeable and experienced.
Lunch was provided everyday and a heater too!
We both left the course feeling confident that we can push our business to the next level
Thanks again

I found the online course really easy…
I found the online course really easy to follow and informative some great tips on there I especially liked the fact I could use it on my phone at work to just check on details whilst actually in the process of spraying would definitely recommend to anyone wanting an introduction into spraying
Highly recommended
Jamie could not be any more helpful. His knowledge is eagerly shared without an ego. The course is in-depth and well structured without feeling restrictive. Jamie is happy to answer any questions and go over details many times when asked.
I’ll be back for another course in the new year.
Jamie and Anna are truly the best
Jamie and Anna are truly the best in the business. I did lots of research, and yes there are cheaper courses, but nothing 1-2-1 which is so important when learning a new practical skill. I was nervous as I’m quite beginner when it comes to spraying and only want to do furniture, but the course was totally tailored and I left feeling confident, able and supported! Couldn’t recommend enough!!
Just finished upvc spray painting…
Just finished upvc spray painting course with Jamie. And I highly recommend this place, Jamie is a fantastic teacher, he really knows his stuff and the course is well structured and thought out. Jamie has a lot of patience and will keep going over techniques time and time again untill you are confident with them.
Couldn’t recommend this highly enough !! And will be booking further training.

UPVC Spraying Course
Trained with Jamie today and the training was brilliant. Very informative and obviously Jamie definetely knows his stuff. Spent on the gun with all practical application. Jamie providing tips and tricks along the way. I would definetely recommend this training to others. 10/10 from me. Thanks to Jamie and Abode academy.
1-1 spray course went really well
1-1 spray course went really well. Course was very interesting and I feel I have learned a great deal from it. Jamie was very helpful and friendly. I would certainly recommend this to anyone wanting to do a spraying course
The best 2 days training
Jamie and Anna, made my recent Abode Academy course a perfect experience. I learn’t so much from both of them on spraying but also social media advertising. The 1:1 hands on format with Jamie was just what I needed to improve my skills. I would recommend Abode Academy to anyone looking to improve their skills and broaden their business horizons. Thanks very much Jamie and Anna.
Brilliant course!
Brilliant course! Jamie is very knowledgeable and really helpful in explaining everything I needed to know about spraying kitchens and furniture. Every question I had was answered and I came away feeling confident about spraying. Not only that, the business tips and help I got from the course were invaluable, and I’m really looking forward to growing my business with these new skills. Thank you!
I had a fantastic two days of 1-1…
I had a fantastic two days of 1-1 training with Jaime completing both the beginners airless spraying course and the fitted kitchen one. I learnt lots about what machines to use in certain situations and how to set them up and carried out plenty of spraying in the process. As a result it has given me the confidence to get my own set up and out there and give it a go . Thank you very much to both Jaime and Anna. Look forward to going on another course in the future.
