Projects

Completed work, written up properly — what the site was, what constrained the job, how access was managed, and what was delivered.

Documented case studies

  • Repainted exterior brickwork and rendered walls at Emmaus College in Vermont

    Vermont, Victoria

    Emmaus College school repaint, Vermont

    Noble Park, Victoria

    Across metropolitan Melbourne

    Repaint of 11 NDIS offices across Melbourne

    Repainting eleven separate office sites for one client, each an occupied workplace, under a single contract with fixed budget accountability and consistent standards across every location.

Sites we have photographed

102 photographs across 14 commercial sites. Two of them — the Noble Park factory and the Frankston office from the NDIS programme — are the case studies above, photographed, and link back to them. For the rest there is no written record of scope, preparation or programme, so nothing is claimed beyond what the photographs show. They are the work itself: the access, the masking, the preparation and the finish, as each site actually looked while the crew was on it.
