Peter was friendly, professional and did an outstanding job. Not only did he make an extra effort to give us a quote to meet our budget, but he completed the entire job ahead of schedule. His daily updates on his progress were reassuring and he’s as reliable as they come. In addition to the top quality painting, Peter also organised a plasterer and carpet cleaning at very good rates. We feel fortunate to have found such a good decorator who’ll be our first point of call for any future painting needs.Keat
Updated : The windows can be painted closed as being on main road they are never opened.
All paint work is white. Window sills have some bare wood, paint on bargeboards and gutterboards flaking in places Original : 2 Upstair front windows. Bargeboard. Gutterboard at rear.
Rubbed down, primed and undercoated if needed, 2 top coats.
Julian does a great job and is only satisfied when he thinks it is right. His one downfall is lack of communication. He needs to keep his customers aware of what is going on. He would say he was coming at a certain time and then not turn up. However he did several extra things at same price which has saved me work. On the whole we are very pleased and recommened himrichard
We have 4 windows that require sanding and painting. 2 at the front are Victorian and 2 at the back are kitchen and bathroom. Please can you quote to do this work
I needed 2 Victorian sash windows painting, 3 standard windows and the outside waterproofing. Graham quoted competitively and did a fantastic job. Really reliable and a nice bloke to go with it. Would definitely recommend him and use him again.nick

Di & Dave did a fantastic job decorating the downstairs of our house. We are very pleased with the results and would highly recommend them. We will certainly be using them again! Laura
Updated : Job 1: Remove remaining wallpaper at top of stairwell (we are unable to reach as the stairwell goes from ground floor to height of first floor). Paint ceiling in tall stairwell (paint supplied). Use lining paper (supplied) to line walls. Paint walls (paint supplied). Surface area of walls approximately 20 square metres. All paper and adhesive has already been removed to bare plaster with exception of area at top of stairwell as noted. Job 2: Lounge room Line all walls (lining paper supplied) and paint all walls (paint supplied). All paper and adhesive has already been removed from walls. Area is currently bare plaster. Surface area approximately 30 square metres. Both jobs require someone who can provide drop cloths and any other materials in order to leave the house clean once finished.

Steve and Andy did a lovely job taking our beat-up plastered walls in a Victorian cottage from unsightly to updated and sleek. They evened out the walls before applying lining paper and painting, painted the ceilings and finished it all to a very high standard. Over the course of four days they also cleaned up at the end of each day, which makes a big difference to anyone still calling a house "home" while work is ongoing! Would certainly recommend them.Alanna

A new kitchen and bathroom are being fitted in a 2 bedroom flat in St Albans town centre. Redecoration is required throughout, including new carpets.
Clifdon Buildings Services were by a long way the most professional outfit and their director Gordon Stagg was easy to get on with.Robert

We found HPM quick, efficient, friendly, customer-focused and were very happy with their care to detail - both with the physical work and administrationSiegi
Came to the house and looked around, seemed very professional in manner, gave a professional quote which was a little too high considering my budget. When I rung to discuss the amount I spoke to his wife who was quite understanding, and stated that Brendan would call me back promptly. He never did.Niall
