Family homes from the 1970s to the 1990s
Building in Tuggeranong began in the 1970s, with Kambah among the first suburbs, and continued south through the 1980s and 1990s. The district is dominated by detached brick and brick-veneer homes, with townhouse developments throughout.
Typical work in a home of this age includes repainting exterior timber, eaves and garage doors, refreshing interiors that still carry original colour schemes, and repairing cornice and plaster cracks before painting.
Planning a repaint
If you are repainting a whole interior, it often makes sense to do ceilings, walls, doors and trims together so the finishes and whites match. For exteriors, we prioritise the surfaces that protect the house, such as timber and anything with bare or flaking paint, before cosmetic areas.

Tuggeranong painting questions
Can you paint the inside of our house in stages?
Yes. Many families prefer to do living areas first and bedrooms later. We’ll keep colours and sheen levels consistent between stages.
Do you paint garage doors?
Yes, including steel and timber doors. Steel doors need cleaning and the right primer on any bare or rusted spots.
Do you work across all of Tuggeranong?
Yes. We work in Kambah, Wanniassa and the rest of the district, and across Canberra.
