Services

Seven things we are called in to do.

Some of it is what people expect from a painting contractor. Some of it — acoustic spray, electrostatic refinishing, concrete repair, lead abatement — is why they call us instead of one.

01

Architectural Finishes

Venetian plaster, Marmorino, polished plaster, microcement and limewash — built up in coats and burnished by hand. Each coat is a fraction of a millimetre, compressed with a steel trowel until the surface closes and takes a polish.

Acosorb Acoustics

Seamless acoustic spray and plaster. Sole Australian licence. NRC up to 0.95 at 35 mm. Sprayed directly onto the substrate — no tiles, no grid, no perimeter trim — following curves and soffits without a joint.

03

Commercial Painting

Base build, fit-out, repaint and scheduled maintenance across offices, retail, health and education. The difficulty is almost never the painting. It is sequencing, access, and knowing what is already on the wall.

Protective Coatings

Corrosion, chemical and fire-protective systems to steel, plant and structure. AS 2311 compliant. A protective coating is a specification, not a product choice. Exposure, substrate, preparation standard and film build, in that order.

Floor Coatings

Epoxy, polyurethane, polished concrete, car park decks and line marking. Floor coatings fail from below. We test slab moisture and prepare mechanically rather than chemically.

06

Electrostatic Spray

Metal refinished in place — balustrades, partitions, shutters, kitchen equipment. Charged paint wraps around the object rather than landing only where the gun points. Refinishing without dismantling.

07

Remedial & Restoration

Concrete repair, lead abatement, render repair, rising damp and heritage work. On older buildings the finish is rarely the problem. Spalling concrete, failed render, rising damp and lead paint come first.
