Painting and restoring older homes in Paddington
Paddington is terrace country. The narrow Victorian rows along Underwood, Cascade and Gurner Streets are some of the most recognisable heritage homes in Sydney, and they come with their own particular demands: fine cast-iron lacework, rendered parapets, tuck-pointed brick and a conservation overlay that means the work has to be done properly. We paint and restore these homes across Paddington and the streets around Five Ways. Whether you need a single room freshened up, the whole exterior repainted, or a full restoration of a tired period home, you deal with one team from the first repair to the final coat.
We know the homes around Five Ways, Oxford Street, Paddington Reservoir Gardens, Juniper Hall, and the kinds of problems that come with them. That local knowledge means we can look at a home in Paddington and tell you straight what it actually needs, rather than guessing.
Services we offer in Paddington
Most of what we do in Paddington is straightforward house painting, inside and out, with the preparation and repairs done properly first. On older and period homes we also take on the bigger work: heritage home restoration run in stages by one team, and facade restoration where the front of the home has gone tired.
Before any paint goes on, we deal with what is actually wrong. That means remedial repairs for cracked render, damp and rotten timber, careful strip-back and preparation so the new finish has something sound to hold, and waterproofing and sealing to protect the finished work against Sydney weather.
