  Gerard and his team recently completed a full exterior restoration and repaint of my weatherboard home in Newington. They were reliable, professional, and highly skilled throughout the process. The house had some real issues—rotting weatherboards, windowsills, and corner sections that needed attention well beyond a standard paint job. Gerard’s team tackled each of these with care and did proper restoration work, not just patch-ups. They took the time to strip the boards back to bare wood, repair damaged areas, and prepare the surfaces properly before repainting. They also took initiative on a number of small but important tasks, like fixing a side gate and rebuilding sections of trim—without being asked and without extra fuss. That kind of attention to detail really stood out. Most importantly, working with Gerard and his team was easy and straightforward. He communicated clearly, was on time and on budget, and clearly takes pride in delivering a high-quality result. If you’re looking to restore a weatherboard home properly, I’d be happy to recommend Gerard and his team.

  Gerard and his team's do fantastic work. They painted my house a few years ago and recently my kitchen/dining area. The quality of work is high and everyone on the team genuinely seems to care about the work they're doing. To top it off Gerard charges fairly for his work.

  Gerard and his team did a great job painting the 2nd floor at my place, all of which was done on scaffolding that he supplied. Gerard also identified some other issues up there and helped out and rectified them without blowing out my budget. Nothing was too much trouble. Great quality and above all very neat and tidy workmanship. I really recommend them.
