Homes and townhouses
Scullin, ACT was built during Belconnen’s 1970s growth and includes detached homes and townhouse developments. Many properties are now forty to fifty years old.
Bathrooms and wet areas
Older bathrooms and laundries often have mould-marked ceilings and peeling paint where steam has nowhere to go. We clean and treat the mould, use a primer and finish made for wet areas, and recommend fixing ventilation, otherwise the problem returns.
Scullin townhouses and wet areas
Scullin has a good share of townhouses alongside its detached homes, and older bathrooms and laundries in both are common trouble spots. Steam with nowhere to go leaves mould on ceilings and peeling paint above showers. We clean and treat the mould, prime with a product suited to wet areas and finish with a mould-resistant paint. If there is no exhaust fan, or it vents into the roof space without enough airflow, we’ll mention it, because no paint will hold up for long against constant condensation.
A note on 1970s homes
Older exterior timber needs scraping back, priming and sealing. Suspect fibre-cement is left undisturbed, as it may contain asbestos. More on painting in Belconnen.

Scullin painting FAQs
Will painting stop our bathroom ceiling going mouldy?
Paint alone won’t. Treating the mould and using a wet-area finish helps, but ventilation needs fixing too.
Do you paint single rooms?
Yes. We take on single rooms and whole houses.
What paint should go in a bathroom?
A mould-resistant, washable finish designed for wet areas, over a suitable primer, after any existing mould has been treated.
