Girl about the house is a family run business which started home interior design services in Stockport, the business is owned and managed by Jan Rothwell and her husband John. We now provide our home interior design services to customers across South Manchester, Tameside and more recently in Shropshire. We believe the business runs smoother when fewer people are involved, consequently, most services are provided by ourselves.
Any products or services that we cannot provide will be outsourced to trusted service providers of which we have personally used. Our services include. Football mad youngster wanted his bedroom to look like the Manchester United dressing room and incorporate a mural. Jan and John were a pleasure to deal with during the renovation of my Victorian property.
As is often the case with houses of this age, the job became increasingly complicated as the work progressed, and both John and Jan were very good at communicating with me and together we managed to come up with creative solutions for every curve ball the house threw at us.

Most of our business services are handled 'in house' as we believe the business runs smoother when less people are involved, therefore we have no 'middlemen' where the message may 'get lost', leaving our customers unhappy.
Thanks to their hard work I had a much more saleable house at the end of the process as demonstrated by it selling within a week of putting it on the market.
The service was professional yet friendly from start to finish and the standard of work was first class.
John replaced skirting, door frames and replaced sockets and light switches to match the scheme.
