Reviews

Jillian was amazing at picking colours for our home, we loved the colours she picked from @littlegreenpaint for our whole house. We also purchased Luxaflex Venetian blinds and roller blinds after Jillian was able to take us through and advise what would look best in each room. We love everything that was chosen and it was done with such professionalism from start to finish. Thanks so much to all the team involved. Lisa Tomalin
I have used Alan Espey Interiors for many years- for curtains, blinds, wallpaper and paint. Jillian has a wealth of knowledge and can bring your vision to a reality! She can walk into a room and knows exactly what colour and fabric will work. Jillian is up to speed with all the decor trends as well as the timeless colours and patterns.I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else!. Jenny Poole
I recently bought curtains from Alan Espey and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The service was excellent, and Jillian was especially helpful — her guidance and the options she chose for me were absolutely perfect. I’m delighted with the result and would highly recommend them.

Great service, very friendly and efficient staff Rebecca was extremely helpful in sourcing my velux blind. Lots of paint and fabric choices as well. Felicity Pierce
Jillian has an intuitive and creative approach to design. She really understands client expectation and encourages collaboration. Her expertise at colour-matching paint is second to none and she offers quality fabric to suit every aesthetic. She goes above and beyond to ensure the decorating process is as painless as possible.

Jillian was a massive help in giving me inspiration for paint colours for our house - helping me pick things I’d never have considered and it looks so well. Looking forward to going back to her for curtains next! Would highly recommend. Rachel Irwin
