New & Heritage Homes
Bluestone villas, sandstone cottages and brand new builds, each painted with the system it actually needs.
Older Adelaide homes are not painted like new ones. Bluestone and sandstone need to breathe, lime-based and soft original renders crack under the wrong paint, and decades of oil-based enamel on joinery has to be prepared properly before anything water-based will hold to it.
Roy works through period details carefully: verandah posts and cast iron lace, timber fretwork, sash windows, cornices and ceiling roses. On new builds the job is about clean cutting-in, even coverage and a finish that hands over well to the owner.
- Period colour schemes for villas, cottages and bungalows
- Joinery, sashes, verandah lace and fretwork
- New construction: ceilings, walls, trims and doors
- Careful preparation of old oil-based coatings

Interior & Exterior
Walls, ceilings, trims and doors inside. Cladding, eaves, fascias and render outside.
Inside, the work is about straight lines and an even finish: ceilings, walls, skirtings, architraves and doors, with furniture moved and covered, and floors protected with drop sheets.
Outside, South Australian sun is hard on paint. Exterior work starts with washing down, scraping and sanding back failing coatings, filling and priming, then two full coats of a quality exterior system on walls, eaves, fascias, gutters, doors and window frames.
- Full interior repaints or single rooms
- Ceilings, walls, trims and doors
- Exterior walls, eaves, fascias and gutters
- Fences, gates, pergolas and outbuildings
No. 03 · Charcoal
Residential & Commercial
Family homes, shopfronts, offices and small commercial spaces, scheduled around the way you use them.
Most of the work is residential, but the same small team also paints shopfronts, offices, consulting rooms and small commercial spaces.
For commercial jobs the priority is keeping the business running. Work can be staged room by room, and the site is left clean and usable at the end of each day.
- Shopfronts, offices and consulting rooms
- Staged work to keep you trading
- Tidy sites at the end of every day
- Feature walls and refreshed fit-outs

Sale & Rental Spruce-Ups
Fast, tidy repaints between tenants or before a sale. Patched, painted and ready for photos or inspection.
A fresh coat is one of the cheapest ways to make a home show well. For a sale, that usually means neutral walls, crisp white trims and doors, and the marks, dents and holes that buyers notice fixed first.
Between tenants, the aim is a quick turnaround so the property is back on the market sooner. Roy can work with your agent or property manager on access and keys. For the full pre-sale list, see the sale ready page.

- Between-tenant turnarounds

Roof Restoration
Cleaning, repairs and recoating for tiled and iron roofs, so a tired roof looks and protects like it should.
A faded, mossy or chalky roof drags down the whole look of a house. A roof restoration usually means a thorough clean, repairs to broken or loose areas, re-pointing of ridge capping on tiled roofs, then primer and finish coats in a roof-specific coating.
Iron roofs are cleaned, treated for any surface rust and recoated. Talk to Roy about the condition of your roof and he will tell you honestly whether it suits a restoration.
- Tiled and corrugated iron roofs
- Cleaning and preparation
- Ridge capping repairs and re-pointing on tiled roofs
- Primer and roof-specific finish coats
No. 06 · Sandstone
Render & Texture Coatings
Acrylic render, texture coats and repairs to cracked or drummy render, finished to match.
Texture coatings and acrylic render can modernise brick and older rendered homes, hide patchy repairs and add a durable, weather resistant skin to the walls.
Where existing render is cracked or loose, the damaged areas are cut out and repaired first so the new finish blends in rather than showing the patch.
- Texture coatings over brick and render
- Acrylic render finishes
- Crack and render repairs, blended to match
- Colour-through and painted finishes
No. 07 · Sage
Furniture Restoration & Painting
Old chests, dressers, tables and built-ins stripped back, repaired and refinished.
Not every painter does this. Roy restores furniture too: sanding or stripping back tired finishes, repairing knocks and loose joints, then refinishing in paint, stain or clear coat.
It suits family pieces worth keeping, op-shop finds, and built-in cabinetry and joinery that you want to match a newly painted room.
- Stripping and sanding back old finishes
- Repairs to knocks, chips and loose joints
- Painted, stained or clear finishes
- Built-ins and joinery matched to the room
No. 08 · Plaster
Full Plaster & Flushing Repairs
Full plaster and flushing repairs: cracks, holes, patches, set joints and the preparation that makes paint last.
Good paint over poor preparation fails early. Every job starts with the unglamorous work: filling, sanding, scraping, sealing stains and fixing cracks so the finish coats sit on a sound surface.
Roy also takes on full plaster and flushing repairs as their own job, from patching holes and cracked cornices to re-sheeting small sections of wall and flushing the joints smooth, before painting the room to finish.
- Crack and hole repairs
- Plaster patching, flushing and cornice repairs
- Sanding, scraping and stain sealing
- Big and small repairs, quoted honestly

Epoxy Flooring
Epoxy coatings for driveways, carports and pavers. A hard wearing, easy to clean finish that lifts the whole frontage.
Plain grey concrete stains, dusts and shows every oil mark. An epoxy coating seals it under a tough, good looking finish that is easy to hose clean, and it changes the look of a driveway or carport straight away.
The surface is cleaned and prepared first, cracks and damaged areas are repaired, then the coating goes down in even coats. Roy can talk you through colours and finishes for driveways, carports, garages and pavers.
- Driveways and carports
- Pavers and outdoor areas
- Cleaning, preparation and crack repairs first
- Hard wearing, easy clean finish

Sale-Ready Maintenance
General maintenance, pressure washing, rubbish removal, window cleaning and pre-sale gardening, done in one go before the photos.
Getting a house ready to sell is rarely just paint. The same team takes care of the jobs around it: general maintenance and small fixes, pressure washing paths, driveways and walls, rubbish removal, window cleaning and a tidy pre-sale garden.
Because it is one team working through one list, the house is ready sooner and you are not chasing five different trades. Anything outside what we do, we have the connections to get it done.
- Sale-ready general maintenance
- Pressure washing
- Rubbish removal
- Window cleaning and pre-sale gardening
