What our customers actually said

“Jim painted our nursery last week and it looks absolutely lovely. He came highly recommended and I wanted to pass on that recommendation to anyone looking for painter decorator. Not only does Jim do a great job, he's also a really nice guy and a pleasure to have a chat with. Thanks Jim - I'll definitely be calling you for any work we need in the future!”

“Jim decorated our hallway recently and did such an amazing job! He was able to start work shortly after we approved the quote and did such a great job. The walls were prepped on day one and the ceiling done. Day two majority of the painting was complete with the final touches done on day 3. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to get some work done but a friendly guy!”

“Jim and his team recently redecorated our entire 2 bedroom semi-detached house in Liphook. The experience was top class from start to finish. We received our quote very promptly, the job was done to a very high standard and finished exactly on schedule. We have no hesitation in highly recommending Bourne decorators!”

“Jim and Richie were a real pleasure to deal with. Totally professional and efficient, but really friendly. It was a very stressful time but they made it easy to get through. They did a brilliant job in redecorating the interior of a retirement property. Spraying the kitchen cupboards made it look as though a brand new kitchen had been fitted at a fraction of the cost. The whole house has been transformed. Would highly recommend them.”

“Our experience with Jim and Richie was exceptional. Great work, great communication and an overall enjoyable experience. Our house looks fabulous.”

“Started with a comprehensive detailed quote - and that attention to detail continued throughout the project! We are delighted with the finished result. We would definitely call Jim when we need any more decorating! He did what he said he would do - extremely well. On time and on budget - perfect! Cheerful and friendly, even tuneful some of the time”

“Jim and Richie have just completed painting our kitchen units and wood panelling and it looks like we have a new kitchen! I can't recommend them enough, it was a big and fiddly job in our old cottage but they tackled every step with great knowledge and professionalism. Friendly, trustworthy and reliable, I can't recommend them enough.”

“Always a pleasure to have Bourne Decorators return. The products and work are of the highest quality. A friendly and cheerful service that greatly reduces the stress of having someone work in your home.”

“What truly smashing chaps Jim and Richie are. When receiving our bath panel and cupboard doors that they had sprayed for us we were amazed with the flawless finish and quality of the workmanship that had gone into them. When the decorating of our house needed to be done in a tight timeframe, they were there in a flash to turn it into our home. We are always pleased with their friendly and efficient service. Thanks guys and keep up the good work. Sam”

“Bourne Decorating team did a brilliant job! Priming, sanding, painting our new loft conversion, stairs, banisters, hallway, living room....everything was done to a really high standard, next to zero dust, site was left clean when the job was done. Richie in particular was simply brilliant, nothing was too much trouble including fitting our velux blinds for us! Cannot recommend highly enough.”

“Jim came up with a helpful and cost-effective solution for re-vamping our kitchen, and the team carried out the work in a highly professional manner. Helpful, friendly, good communicators and rightly proud of their workmanship. Kitchen looks new, in fact better than new as we were not limited in our choice of colours for the units. Highly recommended”

“Excellent job done and with a genuine desire to please. We had our Kitchen re-sprayed and the room painted - and it looks like new. We have used Bourne Decorators for jobs inside and out and recommend for a very personal and professional service.”

“It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Jim and his son. They turned up when they said they would, did a fantastic job painting our library and left it cleaner than when they arrived! I hope to see them back in our school again soon. I will definitely be using them again. All this and they brought their own milk :-)”

“I'd highly recommend Jim, Richie and the team and will definitely be using them again in the future. They redecorated my house top to bottom and did a cracking job. They are honest, trustworthy, accomodating and solution orientated. They take pride in what they do, and do it well, whilst always having a smile on their face.”

“Jim, his son and their friendly band of brothers have been working on a grade II listed Hall in Hampshire. Jim et al. are always smiling and clearly love what they do! They have been working on this complete redecoration for a couple of months now and are just fabulous.”

“Jim is very professional and also a positive and cheerful guy to have around. He has painted the exterior of our house (extensive scaffolding required plus snow guards to be fitted, all organised by Jim) and we are very pleased with the results. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and have asked him to quote for the interior of the house!”

“I don't write many reviews but think that Bourne Decorators led by Jim and his very capable team deserve a well deserved 5 star review. I hired them to paint all of our windows, doors, facias outside as well as several internal rooms at our property. This involved scaffolding being erected over 3 storeys. Jim coordinated everything including the need for other workmen needed during the work. They were a delight to have doing the work, were totally trustworthy and their work standards even ahead of my high expectations. Despite a few weather delays, they completed the work pretty much on time and on budget. It looks great! I have no hesitation in saying that if you want a quality job done at a competitive price, then give Jim a call at Bourne decorators. I would certainly hire them again without hesitation.”

“We have used Jim on a number of occasions to decorate throughout our home and would not think about using anyone else. The result is always excellent and Jim is highly professional and trustworthy. He works on our home as if it was his.”

“Bourne Decorators have recently repainted several rooms in my house and I would not hesitate to recommend Jim and his team. Good quality work, very tidy, reliable and thoroughly nice people. They like cake.”

“We have used Bourne Decorators for several jobs and the results have always been excellent. Jim is extremely professional and a pleasure to work with.”

“I have had Jim decorate for me for nigh on 20 years and would not use anyone else. Why? Because he is absolutely honest and trustworthy. None of this 'sharp intake of breath' when looking at a job, or hidden extras. He recently repainted a dark grey orangery to cream, and my hall, stairs and landing wallpapered. The finished product is fabulous- the house is transformed. He was also very patient with me and my uncertainty over paint colours! Also I should add that he was extremely helpful when it turned out we needed plastering and scaffolding owing to my changing my mind. My only 'negative' is having to wait for him to do other jobs before he can come back to do more! (That and the need for copious tea-bags!) Wouldn't hesitate to recommend- but only if he comes here first!”

“Helpful, clean and tidy work. Excellent attention to detail and advice and guidance throughout projects. Used many times.”

“Jim and his lovely crew recently completely transformed the exterior of our house - they did a fantastic job....a tired looking house now looks proud again. They are thorough, reliable, a real pleasure to have around and per other reviews, Jim can certainly carry a tune! I recommend Bourne Decorators 100% and will look forward to Jim and his team working here again.”

“Jim was recommended to me by another trade doing work for me, this was after my original decorator had done such an appalling job. Jim was fantastic, he managed to fit me in really quickly and he's done an amazing job. Despite the bad experience I had with the other decorator I wasn't worried about having another decorator in my home, that's down to Jim being such a lovely guy and reassuring me I'd get what I asked for this time. I can't recommend Jim highly enough, you certainly won't be disappointed with his work. But after reading the other reviews, don't make the mistake I did and have no kettle in the house!!!”

“We needed the exterior of our building redecorated, and we're absolutely delighted with the outcome. Jim is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and very experienced. The quality of the work is extremely high, as is the attention to detail. No corners cut, reliable, friendly, and trustworthy - no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Bourne decorators.”

“Excellent service again! Jim does an excellent job and provides a friendly and reliable service. He recently decorated our sitting room, staircase and panelling. Fabulous finish and would highly recommend.”

“Always delighted to recommend Jim and his crew who've done work for us over many years. They're reliable, trustworthy and work to a very high standard. They're also a pleasure to have around although whatever you do don't forget to order in extra tea-bags! And ear-plugs in case Jim starts singing. Bill, Rowledge.”

“Jim at Bourne Decorators has completed several other decorating jobs for us in the past. This latest job was to strip, line and paint walls and hang wallpaper on a feature wall in one of the rooms. Jim is reliable, knowledgeable, skilled and a pleasure to have around. (He does drink a lot of tea though!!). The work is done to an extremely high standard - we are absolutely delighted with the results - I can't stop looking at the walls - almost seems a shame to hang pictures etc. back up again. The job included having both the ceilings reboarded and skimmed prior to decoration - for which Ryan did a really great job as always. They work very tidily AND observe all recommended social distancing rules in these Covid-19 times. I would recommend Bourne Decorators without any hesitation. Philippa and Graham - East Tisted”

“I can highly recommend Bourne Decorators. The work that we had done was to a very high standard and very professional. Very clean and tidy too.”

“I've had a few guys do this kind of work but never have they been so professional, neat, reliable and trustworthy. The price was competitive and the finish was second to none. Thanks Jim - outstanding job and we will definitely be recommending to friends family and Facebook buddies!”

“Recently had Jim and Richie over to paint our main bedroom, study, hallway and stairs - and what a fantastic job they did too. Really nice guys and a pleasure to have them in the house. Kept mess to an absolute minimum and worked conscientiously throughout. So impressed I've asked them back to quote for the remaining rooms in the house!”

“Excellent decorators! I've used Jim and Rich a few times over the years and can not recommend them enough! No job is too big or too small. They are friendly, reliable, tidy and always work with a smile! Would highly recommend for any of your decorating needs. 5 stars!”

“I have used Bourne decorators on numerous occasions over the past 18 months. They have essentially decorated my entire property. Very friendly, excellent work, clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend.”

“Jim and his team did a great decorating job on our house. They went out of their way to get the job done around another project we were having done and saved our skin! They came on time, delivered, used good products and gave great advice! Most importantly, Jim and his team are genuine and likeable people, and that's who you want in your home! Thanks guys!”

“Professional in all work undertaken, job satisfaction being a priorty at all times, very nice, honest reliable people, would have back to do any other decorating.”

“Jim is clearly a man that takes pride in the job he does. Friendly, professional and has an abundance of knowledge. Absolutely stunning finish and nothing is too much trouble. Would highly recommend Bourne Decorators and will be using them again.”

“Bourne decorators decorated my parents house in farnham. Honest, reliable, humerous. Oh yes, there decorating was excellent to!!!!”

“We had our offices repainted, this was done with desks and occupants in situ, so it was not easy but this was done efficiently, and with good humour. The end results look really good. Jim and his team arrived punctually, were polite and even washed their own cups up.”

“I have used Jim and his team for 15 years or so, and would not have anyone else. They are friendly, trustworthy, and a delight to have in the house. (I'm sure I find jobs for them to do regularly just so that they can come back!) Ask Jim about his wallpaper top tip, it's amazing, and saves a ton of money, seriously, my house looks as good 9 years after being decorated as it did when first done.”

“We've used Jim and his team probably five times over the last 10 years. They do all the essentials very well: good quality, value for money, trustworthy to have around, clean up carefully and the like. As important they're good fun. Zero stress and always a joke or two flying. Jim singing is an experience.”

“Jim and his team are very professional at all times. Courteous and friendly manner and always tidy up after themselves. Good quality workmanship and Jim really does take pride in what he does and it shows in the finish. I would thoroughly recommend Jim and would not hesitate to use Bourne Decorators again. You will not be disappointed.”

“Excellent results from Jim as always. We have used him a number of time and would never look to use anyone else. Always professional, always a great job.”
