When paint has really failed
Where paint has peeled to bare timber, the wood has usually greyed and opened up. Simply painting over it doesn’t last. We sand back to sound timber, apply a primer suited to weathered wood and then build up the finish, so the repaint lasts through Canberra’s frosts and summer UV.
Weetangera’s larger blocks and outdoor timber
Weetangera’s established blocks often come with substantial gardens, side fences, pergolas and outbuildings that are easy to forget when budgeting a repaint. We list them separately in the quote, so you can decide what to include now and what to leave. Fences and screens in shade take longer to dry and may need mould treatment first. Timber that has been left bare for years needs sanding back to sound fibre before priming. Getting the outbuildings and fences right lifts the whole property, not just the house.
Materials of the era
Some fibre-cement sheeting installed before the 2003 asbestos ban may contain asbestos, so we never sand, drill or water-blast it. More on painting in Belconnen.
