Stanmore features many late 19th and early 20th century homes, including Victorian terraces and Federation-style houses.

Painting these properties requires experience with older materials, including original plaster walls, timber trims and detailed ceilings.

Recent painting project in Stanmore

We recently completed a heritage house painting project in Stanmore, involving both interior and exterior work.

The project included detailed surface preparation, restoration of original features and a full repaint using premium paint systems designed for long-term durability.

Project 1

Heritage House Painting – Douglas Street, Stanmore

Project Overview

This project involved the full repaint and restoration of a large Victorian/Italianate heritage home located on Douglas Street in Stanmore. The property features highly detailed architectural elements, including decorative iron lacework, timber verandahs, ornate brackets, and original internal features such as a grand timber staircase and ceiling roses.

Homes like this are a defining part of Stanmore’s character, and require a careful, experienced approach to ensure both protection and authenticity.

Scope of Work

  • Full exterior repaint of brick and rendered surfaces
  • Restoration and painting of verandahs, balconies, and timber trims
  • Detailed preparation of heritage elements including sanding, repairs, and priming
  • Painting of intricate iron lacework and decorative features
  • Interior repaint including walls, ceilings, and heritage details
  • Careful work around original timber staircase and internal joinery

Preparation & Challenges

As with many heritage homes in Stanmore, preparation was the most critical part of the project.

  • Existing paint layers required careful removal in multiple areas
  • Timber elements showed signs of wear and required restoration before painting
  • Access to upper levels and balcony sections required detailed setup and safety planning
  • Decorative ironwork demanded precision hand preparation and application

We approached the project with a focus on preserving original materials wherever possible, rather than replacing them.

Colour & Finish Approach

The colour scheme was selected to reflect traditional heritage tones commonly found across Stanmore and the Inner West.

  • Light neutral base for main walls
  • Deep green trims to highlight windows and structural elements
  • Rich red/burgundy accents to emphasise architectural detailing


This combination enhances the home’s character while ensuring it remains consistent with the surrounding streetscape.

Outcome

The completed project restored the home’s original presence and significantly improved both its visual appeal and long-term protection.

  • Clean, sharp contrast between heritage colours
  • Fully restored decorative elements including iron lace and timber details
  • Durable exterior coating system suited to Sydney conditions
  • Interior spaces refreshed while maintaining original character

 

The result is a well-preserved heritage property that reflects the architectural identity of Stanmore while being protected for years to come.
