Units and townhouses
For units and townhouses, we repaint interiors between tenancies or before a sale, and quote for exteriors and shared areas through the owners corporation. Washable finishes and a consistent palette make future maintenance simpler.
Next to the town centre
Lyons adjoins the Woden town centre, so it combines older detached homes with units and townhouses that suit people wanting to live close to shops and transport. Units and townhouses usually need quick, clean interior repaints before sale or between tenants, while older houses need fuller preparation of exterior timber and original interiors. For unit blocks, exterior and common-area work goes through the owners corporation, and we can provide a staged plan that keeps the building usable throughout.
Older paint layers
Paint on homes built before 1970 may contain lead (and some later paint can too), so we recommend testing and use wet, low-dust preparation. More on painting in Woden Valley.
