{My very elderly mother lives with me and has been classed as vulnerable under the COVID-19 rules. It was very important that my mother felt comfortable with the decorators that came into my home. After seeking out a few different companies, I felt that CAL Decorators were ideal. They were professional, courteous, considerate and so helpful with my mother who was in the house on her own. They even extended this towards Henry, our 1 year old Basset Hound, who absolutely adored them and still waits by the door today for them to arrive. Their eye for detail and finish is perfect. Thank you for a super job. Will see you again soon.{

{The exterior of my house had been badly in need of repainting for far too long. The front door, in particular, a dull worn-out muddy brown had become a dampener of spirits. I found CAL through their website which, unlike some sites, was professional and so encouraged me to contact them, which led to a visit from Colin. His estimate-assessing visit was also helpful to me in sharpening up my views on what I wanted and whether this was the company to do it. After a Covid engendered interruption, during in which they kept in contact, work started on the agreed time and finished on time. (Good communication with the customer is one of their strengths.) I had expected a good job but I had no idea just how superb the result would be. The front door is the star. It has attracted countless plaudits and strokes of admiration. The work was meticulous, thorough and beautifully executed. They were efficient, impressively knowledgeable and pleasant. The very high standards and enthusiasm brought to the work are rare and special. I’ve booked them for internal decorating next year.{
