Highlights

"The decorator was really friendly and professional. He was punctual, thoughtful and left everywhere clean and tidy. He has done a fantastic job, with minimal disruption and we would highly recommend him to anyone."

"We have known Aaron from HDS Decorators since 2019 when he helped to decorate a burgundy coloured bedroom before we put our house up for sale. It’s wasn’t an easy room to do but Aaron persevered and we were so impressed with his work that he was the first tradesman we had at our new home. Our home has tall ceilings with borders around the top and tiered skirting boards. His attention to detail and his clean/precise edging to his paintwork is second to none. When we first moved in I told him to just paint everything white and after he discussed paint colours with us we decided to go with his suggestions and we are so glad we did. We couldn’t believe the transformation and we were so glad we didn’t just stick to white. HDS Decorators are a credit to their trade and we can thoroughly recommend them, not only for their outstanding work but also for being reliable and trustworthy. First class! 5*"

We have used HDS decorators twice now. Aaron is a lovely, polite and hardworking man. He is punctual and communicates throughout. He listens to what the customer wants for their painting job. He has done an excellent job with his painting on both houses completed. We are very very happy with our recent hall, land and stairways paint work. It looks like a brand new house. I would recommend highly HDS Decorators.

Aarron @HDS was excellent in communicating everything that was going on and fully understood everything that we wanted for our office refurb. He recently completed the second half of our refurb (offices and warehouse) which has been a long time process and we couldn't be happier. He is really tidy (even cleaned up some mess that wasn't his) and got on with the work in a quick and professional manner. There were a couple of small issues that Aarron found and let us know about right away, but which he sorted out with the minimum of fuss. He also worked well around our work schedule and was always cheerful and polite. We would recommend HDS to anyone. If we need any more work done then we will be coming straight back to HDS.

Aarron did amazing job in our front room this week. He has been punctual and professional throughout from the quote to the completion of the job. I could’ve believe how fast he completed our large room 2.5 days can’t fault the quality of the paint and work. My living room it totally transformed Aarron is a lovely guy really friendly polite etc we have already recommended him to other and can’t wait to use him again for our next job! Thanks so much

If I could award 11/10 I would ! Aaron is such a lovely young man to have in your house. His work is exceptional and his attention to detail first class. Having recently moved into a house with very uneven rough walls , Aaron soon made everything good . The finish has been amazing , even helped with colour suggestions . Nothing was too much trouble ! Clean and tidy worker too ! Having messaged many tradesmen over the past few months I was sceptical that yet again another tradesman wouldn’t show up . Punctual , turns up when he says and regular contact throughout the time he was with us . Don’t hesitate to give Aaron a ring he will do a superb job !

Aarron was polite, clean, communicative and very good at his job. He completed the work in the stated time, at the agreed price and even undertook some remedial work unrelated to the job. That was greatly appreciated as it fixed the underlying problem. We’ll done. I would highly recommend this company and Aarron in particular. Thankyou Aarron.
