Massive exterior on a very prominent street in Floreat.

Another very large exterior project we completed last year.

Full exterior , all surfaces prepared extensively with the best products available.

When we do projects like this one , all projects , the idea is to not only make the property look amazing but also last. Every material / paint we use is the best you can buy. No expense spared.

The end result is an amazing looking property with a finish that will last a lot longer than your average painting jobs. Do it once , do it right - should last
10 - 20 years on all surfaces. Even after then a quick freshen up is all that’s required. The solid base is in place.

We also did the kitchen on this one. You ll see in the photos the big transformation.

Going large in Attadale !

This is a massive project which we undertook and finished off last year in Attadale. Massive 4 story house where we covered all bases with restoration , prep work and painting of all surfaces of the exterior of the house.

We had the help of a great scaffolding team to get us safely working on top of the large gable roof of the garage underneath.

We had subcontractor builder carpenters come in for a few days to replace weathered and scorched weatherboard. You ll see in the photos we replaced entire faces of the high raised up turret weatherboards.

Then we had the help from an access hire company to provide with a massive boom lift to help us when spraying the roof in full.

The project was our largest undertaken to date. Every single surface of the exterior was fully prepped and painted. Including the roof , steel windows , weatherboard , gutters , fascia and
render to mention just some.

Painting more kitchens and bathroom cupboards - we do a lot of this kind of work. In this case getting a unit ready for the rental market.

The products we use are especially designed for these projects and last. People always ask if they chip or flake. I ve been in a kitchen a year after we painted it with these products and it’s was in the same 100% condition as we left it on the last day - a family kitchen in Palmyra with 2 teens to deal with !

We do small finishing touches like replace any missing melamine strips and always renew any silicon for a solid finish.

As you ll see in the photos we also sprayed the aircon unit to give it a nice clean, fresh look instead of the dated old yellow it had tuned into.

Big transformation on this older style house in Attadale.

Attadale is one of our main areas of operation. Then we have surrounding areas like Bicton and Palmyra.

We do find ourselves in areas like Swanbourne , Cottesloe and Floreat a lot as well.

We did extensive preparation works to all the ceilings , walls and woodwork. Woodwork included skirting , doors / frames and windows.

The walls had very large cracks on them which we fixed property. No external plasterer required.

Every surface gets a full electric sand to get rid of all lumps and bumps.

Half of the area we covered had wallpaper which was falling off. We removed it , steamed off the backing and then gave the walls a really good wash down. After a wash they where sealed properly , prepared extensively and painted with the best wall paint available.

Bathroom reno with tile painting . Getting ready for the house to go to market. Updating the older style looking tiles for a smart modern look. A lot of people are apprehensive about painting tiles , especially floors ( as we did here ). We use the Dulux renovation range and have never had any issues. I ve been back to previous kitchen surfaces and bathroom tiles where we have painted years later and they are all still as good a finish as the day we left. That’s with kids being kids around the house. If you have any questions about using the product hit me up any time or on here..

Concrete preparation and 2 pack epoxy coating.

Kensington

The front concrete alfresco floor , stairs and garage floor at this beautiful house in Kensington where in need of a fix up and solid coating after years of weathering.

We arranged for the garage floor and alfresco floor to be strippped back to bare concrete with a concrete grinding crew . This removes lumps , bumps and hair line cracks.

After they where back to bare all the surfaces had 2 coats of 2 - pack industrial sealer applied. Any cracks or defects in the surfaces where rectified with 2 - pack concrete resin.

After the concrete was sealed twice and prepared for the final coats - the concrete was finished with 2 - pack epoxy coating with UV protection. All in the owners choice of colour.

You can see the before and after pictures , I managed to miss after pictures of the garage floor but you can see it in the back ground of some.

This coating / products we use don’t allow anything to pe*****te them - including car oil and vice versa . Nothing will come up from the coated surface including car oil again.

Time for some posts of projects from recent times. Been off the radar on here for a while and time to jump back in.

Here’s a project of a local tiled roof.

We high pressure cleaned the roof to start , removing heavy dirt from over the years. Once cleaned , we sourced some matching tiles and replaced all broken or chipped tiles.

Once all the tiles where in place we went through and replaced / fixed all damaged roof tile pointing along the ridge capping.

After all of the preparations we then sealed the roof with a very high quality, commercial grade tile sealer.

The last stage was to then coat the roof with 2 coats of high build exterior roof membrane in the owners choice of colour.

The products we use are of the best quality. They will last easily 15/20 years with no issues at all.

The end result is a fantastic looking roof and as a bonus the paint ( very thick membrane ) reduces the heat from the sun going into the house and it in turn makes the house cooler on hot days .

Here is a recent project which was to rectify a water damaged , cedar lined eave ceiling.

There are 3 videos . The first video is before any works where done which shows the water damage and all loose / flaking old coatings.

The second is after a full sand of the ceiling , back to bare cedar.

The third shows the lining after being coated with external varnish .

Facebook won’t allow me to have all videos on one post. I have had to split into 3 posts. Please got o my homepage to watch all 3 with ease.
