H2GLO Services
Painting & Decorating Contractors in Orewa

"Mark did a brilliant job painting the exterior of our 1955 bungalow. He encountered a few surprising situations under the old paint, requiring different products and solutions and hard work to prepare for painting. The finished job looks fantastic and we feel confident that Mark has treated and protected the house at every step. H2Glow's quote was reasonable. Extra work, replacing damaged timber etc, was charged separately and reasonably. He even fixed the bathroom floor tiles after a plumbing emergency.
Nothing was too much trouble. Mark kept us informed, was consistent with hours, worked around the weather, and was pleasant to have on site. Would absolutely recommend."

"Mark did a full exterior and interior paint job on our 1920s Villa.
This involved a lot of remedial work to restore rotten wood areas once they were uncovered.
Mark is extremely knowledgeable and skilled in stripping back, restoring and painting all surfaces including kauri weatherboards, sash windows and wooden joinery.
Mark was prompt with communication, friendly and easy to deal with and very reasonably priced for the high level of finish provided. We were very happy with the outcome. Thank you Mark :)"

"Mark was recommended to us and I am happy that he was. He was extremely reliable, polite, friendly and trustworthy. He repainted all the doors and windows of our villa. The condition of some of the wood was very poor and he did an excellent job of removing all the rotten wood and repairing and making good. He did the job diligently and nothing was ever too much trouble. Will be using his skills again. Thanks Mark."

"Without a doubt this is the best interior paint job I have seen. Mark is very obliging and ensures that the job is carried out efficiently & effectively. He has just completed a total interior paint (walls, ceilings, doors) of our 2 story, 4 bedroom 2 1/2 bathroom, double garage home. Ask for something extra or alteration to the original plan? No worry; Mark will do his best to do it for you. Following the washing down, filling, sanding, painting; Mark went through the house ensuring everything was clean & tidy; including vacuuming all the floors. Great job Mark. We wish you all the very best."

His work is very professional and we are delighted with the results. He also was the project manager for the alterations to our bathroom and kitchen. He organised the tradespeople involved, visited the job frequently and kept us up to date. We are so grateful."

"We were delighted with the prep and painting that Mark from H2Glo Services did on our high, 3x gabled top storey, wooden joinery colonial 8 pane window frames and the wooden window sills which required some restoration work. Mark went over and above what was asked of him, he was punctual and hardworking in the hot conditions. We have gone on to give Mark more work on our wooden verandahs and ongoing maintenance of a weatherboard house. We would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending his work to anyone wanting a top grade job done. His charges were most reasonable and real value for money which is rare these days."

"Mark was so accomodating when we needed an urgent job done. He came round that evening and fixed a hole in the wall where the curtain rod had come out. We had a potential buyer coming to view the house the next morning and Mark plastered over the hole and made it look good as new. He also did a fabulous job cleaning our house, fences, driveway and outdoor area; we definitely recommend his services. Our house looked amazing when he had finished."
