Garage doors and metalwork
Steel garage doors, gates and railings fade and chalk under strong UV, and bare spots can rust. We clean them, treat and prime any rust or bare metal, and finish with a paint suited to steel. Garage doors are a highly visible surface, so refreshing them makes a noticeable difference.
Holt’s steel and timber details
Homes and townhouses in Holt combine brick or brick veneer with timber trims and plenty of metal: garage doors, gates, balustrades and downpipes. Each needs its own approach. Galvanised steel needs a specific primer, rust needs treating back to sound metal, and Colorbond can be repainted once cleaned and primed correctly. Getting those details right is what makes a repaint look finished. We also take care around the brickwork, masking it properly so paint stays on the trims and the face brick stays clean.
Before work starts
Stained timber from this era needs a stain-blocking primer before light paint. Fibre-cement eaves in older homes may contain asbestos and are cleaned gently, never sanded. More on painting in Belconnen.
Holt painting questions

Yes. We clean it, treat any rust, prime bare metal and apply a finish suited to steel.
Do you paint townhouses in Holt?
Yes, for owners and owners corporations.
Can you paint galvanised gates and railings?
Yes, after cleaning and a primer designed for galvanised steel. Without it, paint tends to flake off.
