Melbourne · Established trade craft

Property maintenance held to a straight line.

Painting, gardens and cleaning under one accountable team. We quote what the work actually takes, and we finish what we start  for homeowners today, and for the managers and committees who need it done again next quarter.

Three branches

What we do, and how we actually do it

One team across painting, garden care and property cleaning. We measure, scope and quote every job in writing before work starts so the price you see is the price you pay, and the finish is the same whether it is your home or your twelfth managed property.

Preparation does the heavy lifting. We patch, sand and seal properly, then lay down two full coats that cut in straight and stay true for years.

The method

We snap the line before we cut it

  1. 01

    Walk the property

    We attend in person across Melbourne, measure the real surface area and note what the last trade left behind.

  2. 02

    A line-by-line quote

    Written scope, itemised rates, inclusions and exclusions stated plainly. No day-rate guesswork, no surprise variations.

  3. 03

    Set the line

    Access, parking, protection of floors and furniture, and a start date you can hold a tenant or a settlement to.

  4. 04

    Execute & inspect

    Same crew from first coat to final cut-in. We walk the finished work with you and photograph it for your records.
