Anti-graffiti and protective membranes
Anti-graffiti coatings and protective membranes defend public-facing surfaces from vandalism, mould, and weathering. Permanent anti-graffiti systems let you wipe off paint with solvent and reuse the coating indefinitely; sacrificial systems remove the graffiti and the top layer together for a re-application. Common for schools, shopping centres, and council assets.
Intumescent and fire-retardant coatings
Intumescent fire-retardant coatings expand under heat to protect structural steel and timber. We apply 30, 60, 90, and 120-minute fire ratings, tested to AS1530.4, with certification issued on completion. Used on commercial fit-outs, schools, and multi-residential buildings.
Electrostatic spray painting
Electrostatic spray painting uses a charged paint particle stream that wraps around metal objects for complete coverage with minimal overspray. Perfect for aluminium windows, metal furniture, filing cabinets, switchboards, and on-site respraying of installed fixtures. Our sister brand Paint Electro specialises in this process, and we coordinate the work.
2-pack polyurethane finishes
2-pack polyurethane is a two-component catalysed coating that cures to a factory-grade hardness. Used for high-wear surfaces (timber floors, joinery, aluminium, steel) where single-pack paints fail. Full HVLP spray application in controlled environments.
Anti-microbial and hygienic coatings
Anti-microbial and hygienic coatings resist bacterial growth and wipe-clean to a sterile finish. Used in hospitals, aged-care facilities, commercial kitchens, and healthcare environments where infection control is non-negotiable. Meets Australian healthcare hygiene standards.
Cork membrane coatings
Cork-based membrane coatings provide thermal insulation, waterproofing, and noise reduction on exterior walls. A flexible, breathable, and eco-friendly alternative to paint on heritage facades and modern homes. Resists cracking in movement zones and adds R-value to uninsulated walls.
Crack repairs and wall preparation
We repair cracks of every type: hairline plaster cracks, structural masonry cracks, render movement cracks, and ceiling cracks. The right filler and flex sealant depends on substrate movement. Minor cracks filled and painted for free as part of most repaints.
Driveway painting and concrete coatings
Driveway coatings freshen up tired concrete, seal against oil and chemical stains, and add anti-slip texture. Suitable for concrete, pavers, and stencilled concrete. We diamond-grind then apply a two-coat system for a long-lasting finish.
Eco-friendly and low-VOC painting
Eco-friendly painting uses low-VOC or zero-VOC paints that are safer for occupants, pets, and the environment. Dulux envirO2 is our default for nurseries, schools, and indoor-air-quality-conscious clients. Just as durable as conventional paints; zero lingering odour.
Fencing and gates painting
Fence and gate painting covers Colorbond, timber, and wrought iron. Wrought iron gets stripped to bare metal, zinc-primed, then finished with weather-grade enamel. Timber fences get pressure-washed, sanded, stain-blocked, and finished with exterior acrylic or oil stain. Colorbond just needs a clean and a primer-compatible top coat.
Floor sanding and timber coatings
Floor sanding strips old finishes and reveals the natural timber grain underneath. We then apply oil, water-based polyurethane, or 2-pack finish depending on traffic level and desired sheen. Available for hardwood, pine, parquetry, and engineered boards.
Garage and roller door painting
Garage doors (panel lift, tilt, roller) get sanded, spot-primed if there is rust, then spray-finished in garage-grade enamel. Colorbond garage doors respray beautifully; we can colour-match to existing brickwork or house paint. Takes a day per standard double garage.
High-pressure washing
High-pressure washing prepares exterior surfaces for paint by stripping loose paint, mould, algae, dirt, and chalking. We use appropriate PSI for each substrate (higher for concrete, lower for weatherboard) and follow with mouldicide rinse where needed. Included with most exterior jobs; also quoted standalone.
Kitchen cabinet resprays
Kitchen cabinet respraying transforms dated kitchens without the cost of replacement. Doors are removed, sanded, spray-primed with adhesion primer, and finished with 2-pack polyurethane in any colour from the Dulux range. Factory-grade durability, ready for hinges to go back on in 3-5 days.
Mould and mildew treatments
Mould and mildew treatment starts with identifying and fixing the moisture source (usually a roof leak, plumbing leak, or poor ventilation). We then kill the mould with a sporicidal wash, apply a mould-inhibiting primer, and finish with paint that contains anti-mould agents. Common in bathrooms, laundries, and older ceiling cavities.
Rust treatments and metal preparation
Rust treatment requires stripping back to bare metal (mechanical or chemical), applying a rust-converter primer, and finishing with a marine-grade or exterior-grade enamel. Used on steel beams, metal railings, gates, structural steel, and wrought iron. Stops rust dead and prevents recurrence.
Sealants and caulking
Caulking and sealing joints is the often-skipped step that separates a long-lasting repaint from one that fails at the corners. We caulk skirting-to-wall joints, architrave gaps, exterior render movement joints, and cornice-to-ceiling transitions with paintable flexible sealant before finish coats go on.
Spray painting balustrades
Balustrade spraying (wrought iron, aluminium, timber) is a precision job that benefits from HVLP spray over brush application. We mask surrounding surfaces, prime-coat the metal or timber, and apply two top coats for a factory-grade finish. Perfect for staircases, decking edges, and pool-fence replacements.
Timber staining and oiling
Timber staining and oiling protects decking, pergolas, fencing, and joinery without hiding the grain. Penetrating oils feed the timber from within, sit-on stains add colour without building a film, and hybrid stain-oils combine both. We specify based on timber species, exposure, and maintenance preference.
Waterproofing
Elastomeric waterproofing coatings bridge cracks and seal roofs, balconies, and exterior walls against water ingress. Used on failed torch-on membranes, planter boxes, shower niches, and cracked render. 10-year waterproofing warranty on most systems.
