Established Belconnen streets
Page, ACT is one of Belconnen’s established suburbs, developed during the district’s early growth from the late 1960s and into the 1970s. Like its neighbours, it is mostly detached brick and brick-veneer homes on established blocks.
Front of house first
If you are planning to sell or simply want the house to look cared for, the front elevation, entry door, garage door and front fence or screens make the biggest impression. We can paint those first and plan the rest of the exterior over time.
Planning a staged exterior in Page
Not every household wants to repaint the whole exterior at once. In Page, as elsewhere in central Belconnen, a sensible order is usually the most weathered surfaces first, typically north- and west-facing timber, then the front elevation, then the rest. Each stage gets the same preparation, so the finish matches when the last side is done. Keeping a record of the colours and products used makes later stages straightforward. Inside, the same principle applies: living areas first, bedrooms later, with whites and sheen levels kept consistent between stages.
A note on 1970s homes
Homes built before about 1990 may contain asbestos in some fibre-cement products; if in doubt, we recommend testing before any work that disturbs it. More on painting in Belconnen.

Page painting FAQs
Can we paint just the front of the house this year?
Yes. Staging exterior work is common, starting with the most visible or most weathered sides.
What colour should our front door be?
A stronger accent colour often works well against neutral walls. We can help you choose and sample.
Will a staged repaint look patchy?
Not if the same colours, products and preparation are used each time. We keep a record of what was applied.
Nearby suburbs we also paint
