Harry at H.G.A Property Services paints and decorates homes across Southampton: living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, ceilings, woodwork, halls, stairs and landings. Tidy, punctual and fairly priced.

A careful decorator who explains things first

H.G.A Property Services is Harry, a painter and decorator based in Sholing, Southampton. He decorates single rooms and whole floors, and takes on the fiddly prep that makes the finish last, from filling cracks to repairing water damage before a single coat goes on.

Customers say he is on time, tidy and honest about what can be done. "He would always explain if he might face a problem and clearly define what he could achieve." Prices are fair and costs are broken down, so there are no surprises.

Living rooms and front rooms

Walls, ceilings and woodwork in living rooms, dining rooms and open plan front rooms. Harry plans the colours with you, from a calm light shade to a bold dark chimney breast, and finishes skirtings and doors in crisp satin white.

Feature walls and two-tone schemes

A dark feature wall, a painted arch or a two-tone scheme can change a whole room. Recent work includes a light green front room with dark green feature arches, and deep navy and teal walls behind TVs and kitchens.

Bedrooms

Bedrooms repainted from ceiling to skirting, with built-in wardrobes and doors done at the same time. Bedroom painting is one of the jobs customers mention most in Harry's Google reviews, along with how tidy he leaves the room.

Kitchens

Kitchen walls and ceilings painted neatly around units, worktops and tiles. Cupboards, floors and appliances are covered first. A simple way to freshen up a kitchen without replacing anything, and another job that comes up often in his reviews.

Halls, stairs and landings

Hallways, stairs and landings decorated with care around banisters, spindles and doors. Customers have had a TV room, landing, stairs and hallway done in one go, with the house left clean at the end of each day.

Repairs before painting

Cracks, damaged plaster and water marks put right before the paint goes on. Harry has redecorated rooms after leaks and a flooded store room, and customers say that after his repairs you would never know there had been a problem.

Harry was engaged to paint the inside of the front door, hang some pictures, hooks and add a knocker to the front of the door. He spent time sourcing the paint to make sure my colour choice and finish was matched before agreeing a date and price.

He arrived on time, set to work on the door immediately and then hung pictures etc while waiting for the numerous coats to dry.

He is a polite, tidy worker and I was more than happy to leave him while I went off to an event in the afternoon.

I am delighted with the transfer of a dull brown door to a cheery yellow, equally delighted to have pictures hung as I wanted (he even managed to understand my poor instructions!), the hooks are already in use and the door knocker looks perfect.

Thank you Harry.

Harry was frankly amazing. He responded quickly to my call for help and was just super-professional throughout. He was always on time, tidy, diligent and conscientious about his work. He would always explain if he might face a problem and clearly define what he could achieve. I had a fair amount of repair work to do before the painting, from water damage and cracks etc and he did an really excellent job with all of it - you would never know! And his prices were fair - he worked hard for his money and just a really genuine chap. Full marks, thanks Harry!
