Catholic Diocese of Townsville
“We are very grateful to Higgins for the wonderful work they've done in our diocese. Our schools look well maintained and more importantly, fresh and clean.

“Higgins have recently completed an internal refurbishment and part exterior repaint at The Ville and they have certainly lived up to their motto of 'Whatever It Takes'. They 're committed to providing high-quality workmanship with attention to detail and no request is too small or big. The service they provide is extremely reliable and professional. The work had to be undertaken while the Casino was in full operation and their WHS&E was paramount, again proving to be a premium painting business.”
