Project 1

Heritage House Painting - Fairmount Street Dulwich Hill

Project Overview

This heritage home on Fairmount Street in Dulwich Hill required a careful and detailed repaint to restore its original character while protecting the property for years to come.

Like many homes in the Inner West, the property featured ornate plasterwork, decorative arches, timber elements and a combination of interior and exterior surfaces that needed specialist preparation.

Our focus was on preserving the heritage features, improving the overall presentation, and delivering a clean, long-lasting finish throughout the home.

Scope of Work Included

  • Full exterior repaint of façade, render and decorative trims
  • Restoration and repainting of heritage bay windows and mouldings
  • Preparation and repainting of cast iron fencing and metal elements
  • Detailed surface preparation including sanding, filling and repairs
  • Interior repainting of hallway, walls, ceilings and trims
  • Careful restoration of ornate plasterwork, arches and ceiling details
  • Protection of original features including stained glass and timber elements
  • Precision cutting-in and finishing for sharp, clean lines throughout

Outcome

The completed project restored the home’s original charm while giving it a fresh, clean and well-maintained appearance.

Externally, the façade and decorative features now stand out with crisp definition, while the refreshed colour scheme complements the architectural style of the property.

Internally, the hallway and detailed plasterwork have been brought back to life with a smooth, consistent finish that enhances the natural light and space.

The result is a heritage home that not only looks significantly improved but is also better protected against wear and weather for years to come.

Project 2

Dulwich Hill Wardell Road Heritage House Painting Project

Project Overview

This heritage home in Dulwich Hill on Wardell Road required a full interior and exterior repaint, including extensive preparation of aged surfaces and restoration of original architectural features.

The project focused on preserving the character of the home while delivering a clean, durable and modern finish suitable for everyday living. Special attention was given to detailed cornices, ceilings, timber windows and original brickwork.

Scope of Work

  • Full paint stripping and surface preparation to internal walls
  • Patching, sanding and sealing damaged plaster surfaces
  • Interior repaint of walls, ceilings, trims and heritage features
  • Careful restoration and repainting of original fireplaces and joinery
  • Exterior painting of brickwork, trims, windows and decorative elements
  • Detailed preparation of timber and masonry surfaces
  • Application of premium, long-lasting paint systems

Key Challenges

The result is a fully refreshed heritage home that maintains its original character while feeling clean, bright and modern.

Internally, the smooth wall finishes and neutral colour palette enhance natural light and highlight the home’s period details. Externally, the restored brickwork and carefully selected heritage colours bring the façade back to life while ensuring long-term protection against the elements.
