Hartley Decorators

Extremely personable, reliable,super efficient and tidy but most importantly delivered finishes to a very high standard. Highly recommended. Our work programme was painting a lounge and walls together with a fitted kitchen,doors,cupboards and shelving woodwork and a hall with,stairs and landing.

Ian recently decorated a couple of our rooms, wallpaper and painting. He was excellent, the quality of his work was outstanding and he made it look so easy. He was very punctual, tidy in his work and I didn't really notice him in my home as he was so quiet. I would definitely recommend Ian and wouldn't hesitate to use him again when we redecorate.

Ian decorated our whole house a few months ago. We couldn’t be happier with the results. Ian was a pleasure to have at home, so friendly and professional. Also, he is like a ninja as you hardly notice hin going from room to room. We would absolutely recommend him and will be using him again in the future.

Ian recently decorated my whole house and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He is professional, tidy, competitively priced and really friendly. He was punctual, reliable and had the patience of a saint when having to work around builders, chippies and plasterers and following a last minute request, even popped in one evening to prepare walls to fit in with the plumber’s schedule. Thank you Ian - it was such a pleasure to meet you and to also chat with your lovely wife Sharon, when arranging days/times. I recommend you wholeheartedly and will definitely call you next time I’m thinking of having more decorating done. Jenny - Westdene

We were really delighted with Ian’s work. He was prompt, professional and extremely helpful - nothing was too much trouble. The work was high quality and he was very tidy. After the first job we immediately booked him again and will continue to do so in future. Jennifer, Brighton

Ian painted all the rooms in our house last year and we were delighted with the result, so we didn't hesitate to contact him again when we had a new bathroom installed and needed the walls and ceiling painted in there. Just as before, Ian did a brilliant job. He is such a nice man and a total professional - he always leaves things spotless after he's been and does a very careful job with the painting, always making sure that you're happy with the result - which you definitely will be! I would always use Ian for any painting job we need doing and would highly recommend him to others. Thanks for another great job!

Brilliant job - went above and beyond as always. Was on time every time. Stuck to the estimate and the house looks great. Highly recommended and will be hiring again.

Ian decorated a number of rooms in our Victorian Terrace including the mammoth job of doing our hallway and landing (3 floors). Ian not only did a fantastic job with paintwork but was a pleasure to have in the house - he always cleaned up after himself and was very quiet (which with a newborn around was very much appreciated!). We can’t wait to get Ian over to do the next phase of the house later this year and have already recommended him to friends.

Ian has decades of experience following a 4 year apprenticeship. His attention to detail and skill is outstanding. Everything is done by hand - very little masking tape involved, just a steady hand and attention to detail. He worked extremely fast, very cleanly and was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Clearly a lot of experience with the F&B paint we were using (and indeed recommended by F&B). Would not hesitate to recommend.

Ian has just decorated my house and I am delighted to recommend him to future clients. He is efficient, detailed and thorough; a true professional.

We are so pleased with the wallpapering and attention to detail to a pleasant flat which is now a home to be proud of.

We are absolutely thrilled that we chose Hartley Decorators to complete the total repainting that we had done on the inside of our house. From the first call with Sharon, who could not have been more helpful in organising the scheduling of our job, to the work completed by Ian himself, this company has been thoroughly excellent from start to finish. Ian is a lovely man who is a consummate professional: he was a total perfectionist and nothing was too much trouble for him throughout the job. The painting was completed to an exceptionally high standard and my husband and I are completely delighted with how beautiful it looks everywhere in our house, thanks to Ian's wonderful work. He is a super friendly and trustworthy, reliable man who we would not hesitate to recommend; we will certainly look to work with him again should we need any other decorating jobs done in our house! Thank you for a brilliant job - as I say, we are delighted with how it all looks!
