Painting in Mitchelton
Rooms, ceilings, feature walls and exterior touch-ups, with the patching and prep done properly first.
Mitchelton's Queenslanders and post-war cottages are often painted once the renovation dust settles. I patch VJ walls and old plaster, fill gaps in timber trims and repaint rooms to finish off the work the bigger trades have left behind.
Mitchelton is about ten minutes from my base in Ferny Hills.

Mitchelton homes
The streets around Blackwood Street and Osborne Road are a mix of pre-war Queenslanders and 1950s timber cottages, with brick homes and newer townhouses further out towards Brookside. The older timber homes are being renovated at a steady rate, which creates constant small jobs: stripping out, patching, repainting and fixing the details the big trades leave behind.
Working with old timber
Character homes reward patience. I match existing profiles where it's practical, treat rot properly rather than painting over it, and tell you honestly when something needs a builder or a licensed trade instead.

Access: high ceilings, stairwells and two-storey exteriors
Full two-storey exteriors and roofs are better suited to a painting crew with scaffolding. I'll tell you straight if your job is one of those.
