Original timber eaves and fascias
After thirty or forty years in the sun, timber eaves, fascias and barge boards are often flaking or bare. They're scraped back, sanded, primed and given an exterior enamel to protect the timber.

Repainting established Mill Park homes inside and out. We replace tired 80s and 90s colours, renew weathered timber and repair plaster before the first coat.

Painting Mill Park homes
Most of Mill Park was built between the late 1970s and the 1990s, from the streets around Childs Road and Plenty Road to the Mill Park Lakes area. Many homes are now on their second or third repaint, and the jobs we see most are refreshing original timberwork and bringing interiors up to date.
After thirty or forty years in the sun, timber eaves, fascias and barge boards are often flaking or bare. They're scraped back, sanded, primed and given an exterior enamel to protect the timber.
Peach, cream and dark timber stains were popular when many Mill Park homes were built. A lighter, more neutral palette and freshly painted doors and skirting make rooms feel bigger and brighter.
Outdoor timber structures take a lot of weather. Loose coatings are removed, timber is checked for soft spots and then recoated, so the structure looks good and is protected.
Plenty of Mill Park homes are repainted before sale or between tenants. A clean, neutral repaint with repaired walls is one of the more cost-effective ways to present a property.
Services in Mill Park
In Mill Park we do whole-house and room-by-room interior repaints, ceilings, doors and trims, and exterior work on eaves, fascias, window frames, pergolas, decks and fences. Plaster repair is a big part of many jobs in older homes: settling cracks, old picture-hook and fitting holes, and the occasional water-stained ceiling are repaired before painting.

Pricing guidance
Costs for an established Mill Park home depend mainly on the number of rooms or surfaces, how much old paint needs to come off exterior timber, the amount of plaster repair, and whether doors, frames and skirting are included.
Homes with a lot of original timberwork need more preparation outside, and that is where most of the exterior budget goes. After a free site visit we send a written, itemised quote so you can see exactly what is included.
