Brilliant job!
I've never used any trades people who have been close to as tidy and precise. All work done was to an incredibly high standard. Their attention to detail was second to none and they really worked with us to make sure we got the best outcome possible. They were especially fantastic about working around the young children in the house, e.g. avoiding loud noises during nap times. Couldn't be happier!

Excellent quality work. Reliable people
PH Decorators worked with us for a period of 6 weeks this summer. Really top quality work in every way. We couldn’t fault them - especially my partner who has very high standards. Reliable people and good communication too. If Carlsberg did decorating, then PH Decorating would be it!!! Highly recommended.

Great work with fantastic results
I have used P H Decorating twice recently to paint the hall, stairs & landing plus 2 downstairs rooms. The communication throughout was excellent and I was kept informed of any changes to timings (sooner than anticipated for the first job which was nice) with plenty of notice. They were very flexible to accommodate plastering work being completed before they could start. The quality of the finish is excellent but this reflects the time taken in preparation and the attention to detail. I was given really good advice during the work which I'm glad I took as it made a real difference to the finish. When there was a slight issue with framing (due to the paint I had provided) it was sorted with no problems or quibbles. Philip & Scott could not have been more helpful or accommodating and it was a pleasure to have them in the house. The quote was not the cheapest but I'm very glad I decided to use them as the standard of work is well worth it. I would have no hesitation in using them again nor recommending them to anyone else.

Great transformation.
Philip and Scott have done a great job on my bedroom and living room. I had not decorated these rooms since I moved in 5 years ago so wanted to get it right. From the start, Philip's communication was excellent and he pointed me towards good finishes and colours. The work was carried out within the time scale indicated and I was always informed each day when they would be back. They are easy to get on with and quite simply work extremely hard. The result is a real pleasure, lovely finishes and as always meticulous attention to detail. I am very pleased. So much so that they will be returning to transform my hall stairs and landing later in the year!

Extremely Professional Job
Phil & Scott are simply the best in my opinion. They are very thorough, clean and tidy. The final finish of all their work is fantastic and lasts for a long time. They prepare all the walls, architraves, skirting boards etc properly and even between coats. I would always use and reccommend them.

My husband and I have used Philips services (PHD Decorating) several times now. Firstly he is very friendly but professional. He is extremely thorough, ensuring proper preparation of all surfaces resulting in a high end finish to all his decorating. He is also extremely tidy. We would have no hesitation to recommend him. You have to book well in advance!

Great work by trusted professionals
Philip and Scott have done a number of projects for me over the last five years. We trust them as we would a member of our family, the work is always to the highest standard and both are always on hand to advise on progress or how to proceed. Whilst they deliver an outstanding result, they work in a clean and considerate manner and are a pleasure to have in your home (despite the often unavoidable necessity involved with major works). I trust their professional judgement and integrity and indeed our latest job was undertaken whilst we were away on holiday. One hundred percent recommended

A really great job.
Philip and Scott have done some decorating for me before, so I had no hesitation in asking them to do work on the exterior of my house. They have transformed it. Their meticulous preparation and attention to detail just makes all the difference. Philip knows instinctively what will work best and his ideas only add to the excellent outcome but he always takes the time to discuss the work with you. In addition, they are thoroughly nice people, which makes the experience of having them round the house an extremely positive one. I have requested that they come back to do some more decorating for me and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them one hundred percent.

Excellent, wouldn't hesitate to recommend and use again
We reached out to Philip and Scott to re-decorate more or less our whole house, and they were both excellent from start to finish: (i) the program of work and the materials/effort estimates were detailed and accurate; (ii) they offered helpful ideas and insight based on their experience; (iii) they communicated well; (iv) they turned up exactly when they said they would every day and got straight down to work; and, (v) most importantly, the quality and attention to detail is excellent and everything we hoped it would be. The house looks like a million bucks and the little touches that we weren't expecting (e.g. replacing some rough sealant work around our windows and sink and tidying some rough decoration around the pipework for our radiators) have made a huge difference to the overall finish. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them or use their services again.

Philip and Scott always provide excellent service and this time in painting the outside of our house, which had many years of neglect, did a very thorough preparation with a high-quality finish. They always give detailed quotes and keep to start dates. In all very professional, friendly and competitively priced. Highly recommend.

We are delighted with the internal decorating in our house by PH Decorating. An excellent result, because of huge attention to the detail of preparative work. Problems along the way, with building work or plastering needing attention, were managed without fuss, and very efficiently, by Philip and his team. Very cheerful, friendly people who we recommend without reservation.

Excellent quality and customer focus
After previously receiving a full and detailed estimate for the requested work, we went ahead and had our garden room, with a vaulted ceiling, completely redecorated by Phil and Scott. They started promptly on the agreed date and completed within the estimated timescale. The preparation, (including the protection of the fixed fittings and traffic walkways), quality and attention to detail was exemplary. The cleanup exercise on completion of the decorating was beyond expectation, including cleaning the fixed lights, light switches and plug sockets. The work was completed within the agreed budget and I would have no hesitation in recommending or re-engaging P H Decorating again.

Outstanding, professional, polite and all round nice people.
We have used these gentlemen for a couple of years now and I use the word gentlemen on purpose. They are consummate professionals whose workmanship is second to none. Phillip couldn’t have been more accommodating fitting us in at last minute, although picking wall paper over FaceTime was a first. (Our busy schedules fault nobody else’s) The end result was outstanding in fact, breathtaking. Scotts workmanship can only be described as craftsman like. We cannot recommend this company enough, well worth the waiting time, unless you are lucky enough like us to find a window of opportunity. Wouldn’t use anyone else. Thanks guys.

Best decorator I’ve used in 10 years
Philip was recommended to me and I managed to book him a couple of months in advance. I have been nothing but impressed with his him and his work. Not the cheapest but certainly the best. He made ceilings that I thought would need to be replastered look like new ceilings. He wouldn’t cut corners and is OCD about the finish. After spending a huge amount on the new kitchen I am so glad I invested in the best decorator in Cheshire!

Great qulity work with firendly and professional service
Re-decorated our back bedroom. Previous owners had left the room in quite a state and the room needed stripping back and re-lining. Extra steps required were described in detail (and actually flagged as a possibility when the work was quoted for) and price agreed. The job was completed within agreed timescales, communication was excellent throughout. I would highly recommend Philip.

From the outset all dealings with Philip at PH Decorating were very professional and informative. From the detailed and comprehensive quote for the work to be undertaken, to the completion Philip was professional and reliable, keeping us updated on a daily basis of his progress. Philip discovered a fault with the wallpaper we had purchased and went above and beyond his remit to address the issue with the manufacturers, resulting in a full refund and compensation for the additional work involved. It was a pleasure to deal with him and we will not hesitate to use his services again in the future. Wonderful end result, thank you Philip

Excellent and reliable service with fantastic end results
When you require a professional decorating service I can wholeheartedly recommend PH Decorating. So far, Philip Hopkins and his co-workers Scott and Andrew have decorated the main bedroom, hall, landing and stairs and sitting room, and are about to start work on the exterior of my house. The entire process has been smooth and straightforward from the clear and detailed quotation to the superb end result. Phil, Scott and Andrew are an excellent and reliable team, working quickly and efficiently, minimising disruption to the household, and leaving all work areas clean and tidy at the end of each day. Timekeeping and communication are excellent, and their attention to the initial preparation is second to none. Phil is always on hand to discuss options and recommend the best products for each job. All of which ultimately pays off in the excellent finish. If you are looking for a trustworthy, skilled and professional decorator, I recommend you give Phil a call, I am glad that I did.

Professional workmanship and delightful people
Philip and Scott prepared and painted our kitchen, master bedroom and ensuite. The work was done to an exceptionally high standard. Our home was treated with respect: fitted furniture was protected and everything was clean and tidy for the following day's work. The rooms were immaculate when the decorating was finished. Philip and Scott liaised with us during the process and were very accommodating, polite, reliable and a pleasure to have as our guests. We received the quote promptly after Philip's initial visit. It was detailed with a clear Program of Work and each task was broken down to show what would be done and how long it would take in days/part days. We were advised of the daily rate and discounts on materials purchased were passed on to us. Communication by email, text, phone and on site was excellent. We will definitely ask Philip and Scott to return in the future. A fabulous service! Many thanks, Carole and Nigel

Meticulous care; fantastic outcome
Philip & Scott decorated the inside of our house during April 2018. It is a 1930s house and was showing it?s a age a bit. Thanks to their meticulous care & attention it has been brought back to its glorious grandeur again. Years of average work by previous decorators has been corrected; sharp lines between walls & ceilings or skirting boards have been created and from seeing them in action I know that the preparation of the surfaces was taken care of in detail. Walls had also been left with plaster hanging off and rawlplugs a-plenty due to new radiators having been fitted before hand. Now, there is no sight of this work and instead we have beautiful flat, smooth walls. The finish everywhere was simply beautiful. Thank you Philip & Scott

Highly recommended for great quality
We had two large fitted wardrobes made of mdf painted by Philip and his team. Philip was very approachable and responsive from the start. Gave a detailed breakdown in his quote of the work required to achieve the desired finish on the wardrobes. He turned up at the time agreed and did a great job painting the wardrobes. He was more than happy to come back once the wardrobes dried to touch up a couple of parts. We?ve been very happy with his workmanship and great attitude and would highly recommend him. His may not be the cheapest quote someone gets but definitely worth the price.
