An exterior repaint for this post with a heritage theme. With the dry season now in full swing. The outside work is the focus of many a homeowner

Using a solution of bleach and water, dust and mould were treated. The pressure cleaner removed the failing paint system at various areas exposed to the elements.

The costomer chose to retain the Heritage colours of Deep Brunswick Green on the fascia and trim (Dulux Weathersheild Gloss). The Cream continued on the cement sheeting walls (Weathershield Semigloss) matching the custom orb cladding previously installed. Both colours suited the red of the guttering.

We also continued with the Jotun Hardtop system as a protective coating for the structural and architectural steel. Many hours of preparation and corrosion management was completed before we arrived on this project.

Our next project, the interior repainting

On the job solo for this project. A Peel and Stick wall covering supplied by Photowall. From the online ordering and delivery to the door from Sweden, took one week!

The customers had a vision of images on the mirrored wardrobe doors. Working from the home office, the change in aspect was the goal.

As per the directions. We unrolled the product and left flat for 48 hours to acclimatise. Checked the patterns all aligned and colour was constant. Both images needed a total of 10 drops and the usual trimming to complete the installation process

Only, before and after photos to show this story

A change in colour, stripping the wall covering and creating the knew look for prospective buyers.

Patching, sanding, stain blocking the timber shirting etc

We completed the work in a staged process to allow for furniture and personal possessions to be moved, assisting access to the living/entertaining areas.

The ceilings were freshened up with Dulux Enviro 2 (flat) Ceiling white. "Grey Dusk" (a Taubman's colour) used in Dulux Enviro 2 low sheen to the walls and skirting. A wall paper with shade of grey working with the colour scheme.

New look to aged timber finishes, rails and treads stripped, stained and clear coated with Luxafloor CP

Most of the labour to strip the wood was completed by the time we arrived on site. However, some final sanding was needed to the Pine hand rails and Merbau stair treads to completed the process


The main aim was to brighten up this corner of the living space.

Once the timber was prepared. We applied Feast Watson's, Oak stain to the bare substrate and completed consecutive clear coats to protect/seal the surfaces

We completed the messy work in the carport outside and the application of stain and clear coat in the main living area (not so squeez e !!!)

Marking all the pieces, the jigsaw puzzle was reinstated.

Repainting staff accommodation on the Adelaide River. Aircon made our processes and labour more comfortable with the Wet Season continuing outside.

Watching boats come and go through the glass, kept the team talking. A Red Tag, the Mighty Metery and surprisingly no Crocs spotted.

However, once we launch at the boat ramp! A whole new adventure will begin
