About Hillingdon

Spreading out from the roads around Hillingdon village, the area combines settled family homes with newer infill housing and the busier routes along the Uxbridge Road and Long Lane. The pace here is quieter than neighbouring Uxbridge town centre, with gardens and driveways giving households more room to store things and more exterior surfaces to maintain. Hillingdon sits within the area we travel to from Chorleywood, close enough that combining it with a nearby job in Uxbridge or Ickenham on the same day is usually straightforward.

Homes in Hillingdon

The bulk of Hillingdon's housing dates from the 1930s, with semis and detached houses that share a similar layout of bay windows, hallways and separate reception rooms. Around St John's Church, a smaller number of older cottages break up the pattern, often with lower ceilings and more irregular room shapes. More recent infill developments sit on land that has been built on since, bringing simpler, more standardised joinery that is usually quicker to work on than the older housing nearby.

Jobs we can help Hillingdon homeowners with

The 1930s semis that make up most of Hillingdon often still have original coving and picture rails, which our painting and decorating service can prepare and paint properly rather than painting straight over without attention. Many of these houses also need internal doors replaced or adjusted where the originals have warped with age, and skirting and architrave fitted after new flooring goes in. Small electrical extras such as new sockets or outdoor lighting can be arranged on the same visit as decorating work, saving Hillingdon homeowners from booking a separate trade.
