It is home to national institutions such as the National Gallery of Australia, the National Library of Australia and the High Court of Australia, along with government offices and parkland. It has no conventional residential streets.
Working in public buildings
Buildings that host staff and visitors need painting done in stages, out of hours where possible, with careful protection of finishes and collections. We work within each site’s security and access requirements and coordinate closely with facilities teams.
Public buildings and staged work
Parkes is home to national institutions and government buildings rather than houses. Buildings that host staff and visitors need painting done in stages, outside public hours where possible, with careful protection of finishes and fittings. We can work within site inductions and access requirements, coordinate with facilities teams and use low-odour paints so spaces return to use quickly. For homes, the nearest residential suburbs are Barton, Kingston and Forrest.
Offices and public buildings
Low-odour water-based paints let occupied offices be used again quickly. More on painting in Inner South Canberra.

Parkes is part of Inner South Canberra. Some of Canberra’s oldest homes sit beside new apartments in the Inner South. We paint both, with the extra care older timber, plaster and paint layers need. See all the Canberra areas we paint, or read our guide to painting costs in Canberra.
