Interior and exterior painting for offices, schools, clinics, shops, strata and industrial buildings in Melbourne, staged so the site keeps running.
The CBD is one of the places where Commercial Painters has the most active sites. Work in the Hoddle Grid runs from office floors and lobbies in the towers to shopfronts, arcades, hotels and the older buildings along the laneways.
Most of it is interior work done out of hours: an office floor repainted overnight or over a weekend so it opens on Monday as normal, or a vacant floor turned around between one tenant leaving and the next fitting out.
Every job starts with a visit to the building, so the scope, the condition of the surfaces, access and your working hours are settled before a price is.
CBD office towers, lobbies and retail podiums, Docklands and Southbank high-rise, nineteenth-century masonry laneway buildings and corner hotels, the Parkville hospital and university precinct, and converted warehousing at Kensington and North Melbourne.
Inside the city the paint is rarely the hard part. Loading dock and lift bookings, building management inductions, hoarding and street occupation consents and strict after-hours noise limits decide what a shift can achieve, and the older frontages carry so many previous coating layers that adhesion testing is worth doing before anything is specified.
Interior and exterior, run by one team. Most jobs draw on more than one line of work: an exterior that needs its render repaired first, or an office repaint that ends up including the patching.
Interior work in occupied buildings — offices, classrooms, wards and retail floors — staged so the space keeps working.
Exterior systems specified for UV, moisture and temperature movement, with access planned per elevation.
Workplace repaints programmed around business hours so staff keep working through the job.
Systems for industrial substrates where the coating is doing a protective job, not a decorative one.
Painting delivered into a construction programme — staged to the build, sequenced around other trades, and carried through to handover.
Patching, plastering, rendering, tiling and flooring run in the same programme as the painting, so one team answers for the whole job.

Yes. Melbourne is 27km from our Bayswater North base, a drive of 20 to 40 minutes. It sits in the Melbourne council area, part of Inner Melbourne, and the postcode is 3000 or 3004.
Usually, yes. Work is staged after hours, at weekends, in school holidays or one zone at a time, and each area is cleaned down and handed back as it is finished. Low-VOC systems are standard in occupied workplaces.
After a site visit, as an itemised written quote covering labour, materials and scheduling, per site where the work spans several buildings. Repairs are priced on separate lines from the painting, so you can see what is remediation and what is finish.
We visit the building to check the areas involved, the condition of the surfaces, access and the hours contractors are allowed on site. It costs nothing and comes before any price, because preparation is the largest variable in a painting job and cannot be judged from a photograph.
Five years on workmanship, backed by our standing as a Dulux Accredited Painter. It covers peeling, flaking and blistering, which is why preparation and application are settled on site rather than assumed.
