We asked Jimmy to paint the hall, staircase and landing.

We were very pleased with the results. We particularly appreciated that the work was clearly explained beforehand and that each evening Jimmy kept us up to date with the progress. The people working with him were as hard working as Jimmy. All were polite, trustworthy and reliable. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jimmy and will ask him back to do further work.

Jimmy has done an excellent job for us again. Charged us the price quoted even though we added in a couple of other jobs. Always on time and tidy, we would recommend Hill's Painting and Decorating to anyone.

Internal redecoration of three bedroom bungalow

Our initial impression of Mr Hill was that he knew what he was talking about when it came to decorating. Mr Hill submitted a detailed and comprehensive quote that was very competitive in price.The work carried out was to an extremely high standard with no stone left unturned during all stages of the decorating process. He and his team arrived each day on time and worked all day with only a short stop for a sandwich.He knew we had a dead line to meet and finished the work on time. We found Mr Hill and his team were trustworthy and left them on there own on many occasions I would recommend Mr Hill WITHOUT HESETATION.

Communial hallways to our block of flats

We found Hills very professional from the quotation price to completion. The price was fixed and very reasonable but we found it to be fantastic for the standard they delivered. They were very clean, friendly and made all our elderly tenants feel very at ease. The work areas were hoovered daily and nothing was to much trouble. We had a fixed price from Jim and when we decided to make a few amendments that we thought may cost us more actual cost us less . Jim passed the saving on to us which we are not use too. We have now booked Hills to do our own home, very good company
