I Hodgson & Co

We are delighted with Ian and Alan's workmanship - painting the exterior of our house. Working between rain showers and high winds they managed to stick to schedule, keeping us updated with progress, plans and paint invoices. A professional job that is sure to stand the test of time. Won't hesitate to use again.

Ian and Alan did a great job painting the outside of the house. The work was completed to schedule and on budget. Ian explained how the job would be done in sections so we always knew what was going on. All our choices were discussed so we knew what to expect. Ian’s advice was practical and based on years of experience. The final result speaks for itself: the house looks great.

Courteous and friendly decorators who carried out a professional job, cleaned up after the work and completed on time as per schedule.

Turned up promptly at the agreed time every morning. Shifted furniture and laid protective sheets as required. The work was finished in two and a half days, as quoted. We will be using his services again.

Over the last few years we have engaged Ian to undertake the decorating of our house both externally and internally. We are happy to recommend Ian to others not only for his technical decorating skills but also for the professional manner that he always displays in working with his customers.

Ian came round to freshen up our house recently, which involved repainting 5 room/areas. As always, Ian arrived on time, carried out the work in a timely and professional manner. Ian, always keeps you up to speed with what he is doing and is a very friendly, approachable individaul. Thank you for a top job, Ian.

Iain and Alan did a great job on our hall. The quality of the finish was excellent and they finished on time and within the estimate. They did their best to minimise disruption to those of us working from home etc. and left the place clean and tidy at the end of every day. Would recommend!

Ian has now completed two painting and decorating jobs with us, firstly in 2015 (major house renovation work) and secondly in 2023 (painting and papering a large living room, our hall, ceilings and doors) and he also completed two large domestic projects for my parents in the 90s and 00s, which is how we first came to hear of him. His work is fantastic - he is a perfectionist with an eye for detail and he always keeps us in the loop on cost, with our budget in mind, and pre-agrees work and pricing before beginning. Everything is always completed in good time. Ian and his team are professional, friendly, very helpful and trustworthy. I couldn't recommend them more highly and we've always been really happy with their work.

Ian did an excellent job. He responded quickly to my enquiry, fitted us in wihout delay, always turned up when he said he would, and did an excellent job of stripping and relining a wall, then painting the whole cloakroom. He offered sound advice on colours and was very personable throughout. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Turned up to start painting exactly as arranged. Fast but careful and accurate work. Considerate of our domestic arrangements. Conscientious work, extending beyond what was expected in terms of painting aspects that I hadn't taken into account at the outset. Intelligent advice. All in all, I'd certainly engage Mr Ian Hodgson again and recommend anyone else to do so.
