Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Always my first choice for paint... their colour matching service is very accurate. They even managed to match a paint that had gone out of production. Great and attentive service.

Order arrived very quickly. Product has been perfect for the restoration in an older house. Really pleased with the final condition after only 2 coats. Only down side was the tin the paint arrived in... See more

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great paint for painting furniture. Just would be great to have tester pots or colour paper samples. Difficult to choose colours with a chart. But a great company to use.

Great customer service

Great customer service! Having sent through our order, we received follow-up calls and email from Josh, who took great care to ensure we got the right colour to match existing shade. Competitive price too. Well done!

Helmi 30 Paint

I contacted Holman specialist Paint company regarding Helmi 30 paint which was purchased a few years by another decorator. I needed to match this paint exactly and make sure I got the paint mixed to the same numbers on the existing tins. I sent Joshua a message regarding this matter and he got back to me straight away and said the colours were still available and they where able to ship paint the paint to me. After a couple of conversations on the phone with Joshua and his colleague I ordered my paint and it arrived quickly and well packed. I would definitely recommend this Company and I will be using them again should I need anymore of this paint. Thank you Joshua and colleague for all your help.
