Southern Woden
Mawson, ACT was developed in the late 1960s and 1970s in southern Woden Valley and contains the Southlands shopping centre. Its original brick homes have been joined by newer apartment and townhouse developments.
Shops and apartments
Besides homes, we paint shops and offices, scheduled outside trading hours, and apartment interiors and common areas for owners and owners corporations.
Homes, shops and apartments in Mawson
Mawson combines established brick homes with apartments and townhouses near the Southlands centre, and its shops and offices add commercial work to the mix. Commercial premises can be painted after hours so trading isn’t affected. Apartment work follows the building’s by-laws, and owners corporations can get staged quotes for common areas. For older homes, exterior timber and original interiors are the typical priorities, with older paint layers prepared using low-dust methods.
Before work starts
Homes built before 1970 may have lead-based paint in their older layers. We recommend testing, and prepare surfaces wet rather than dry sanding. More on painting in Woden Valley.
