A DECORATING company has won a £1m contract with the Three Rivers Housing Group.

Durham Decorators (NE), in Meadowfield, County Durham, won a five-year painting and decorating contract after a competitive tendering process.

The deal will see Durham Decorators complete all of Three Rivers' external and internal painting and decorating work.

Glen Vardy, programme maintenance manager at Three Rivers, said: "A rigorous selection and tendering process, which included tenants, looked at overall quality of service, customer service, cost and delivery and we look forward to working with them over the next five years.
