Specialist painting for Sydney's Federation homes, Victorian terraces and character properties.
Older homes require a different approach. We carefully prepare and paint period properties with respect for their original character, architectural details and existing finishes.
Period homes often contain ageing coatings, detailed timberwork and surfaces that have been repaired or repainted many times. The quality of the final result depends heavily on what happens before the first coat is applied.
We assess the existing surfaces, identify the preparation required and take the time to work carefully around the original features that give the property its character.
Every older property is different. Our approach is tailored to the age, condition, materials and architectural details of the individual home.
The details are often what make a period home special. We take a considered approach to preparing and painting architectural features so they remain part of the character of the home rather than being lost beneath the finish.
Older painted surfaces can reveal years of wear, previous repairs and multiple layers of coatings. Before painting begins, we assess the condition of the surface and complete the preparation required to create a sound foundation for the new finish.
Depending on the property, this may include cleaning, scraping, sanding, filling, patching, repairing minor surface imperfections and priming before painting begins.
A period home does not need to look old-fashioned to retain its character. Existing colours can be refreshed, traditional details can be highlighted, or the palette can be updated while allowing the architecture of the home to remain the focus.
Period features continue throughout many Sydney homes. Interior painting can refresh the space while preserving the architectural details that make the property distinctive, from decorative ceilings and timberwork to doors, trims and original mouldings.
The finish begins with properly prepared surfaces.
Architectural features are treated with the care the property requires.
