What we paint

Six disciplines, one detail-led crew.

From a single feature wall to a full strata re-coat, the work is the same: read the building, prep it properly, and leave it looking right.

From quote to walk-through

How a job runs with Attentive.

Every job goes through the same four stages. The order doesn't change, the standards don't change, and you always know what's happening next.

1

On-site quote

We come to you, walk the job, ask the questions that matter, and write a fixed quote you can read in plain English. No deposit charged on quoting.

2

Preparation

Sanding, filling, masking, primer. The unglamorous stage that decides whether the topcoat lasts five years or fifteen. We don't skip it.

3

Painting

Two coats of premium paint, applied at the right thickness, with the right tools for the surface. Drying times respected so the finish holds up.

4

Walk-through

We walk the finished job with you, listen to anything you'd like adjusted, and don't pack the van until you're satisfied.

Common questions

Before you book.

Do you cover Paddington and the inner west?

Yes — Paddington is our home base, and we work across Red Hill, Bardon, Auchenflower, Toowong, Milton, Rosalie, Spring Hill, Ashgrove and the Brisbane CBD as a matter of course. If you're a little further out, just ask: we'll either say yes or tell you straight if travel makes the job uneconomic for you.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We hold QBCC Licence 1241313 (Queensland Building & Construction Commission) and carry public liability insurance for every job we run. The licence number is on every quote we issue, and we're happy to send a current insurance certificate before work starts if your property manager or strata committee needs it.

Do you charge for quotes?

No. Quoting is free — we visit the site, walk the work with you, and give you a written fixed quote within a few business days. There's no deposit charged for the visit and no obligation to accept. If you do go ahead, the colour consultation that comes with the quote is also free.

How long does an average job take?

Highly variable, but as a guide: a single interior room is usually 1–2 days; a typical 3-bedroom Queenslander interior is 5–10 days; a full exterior repaint of a similar house is 7–14 days depending on prep and weather. Commercial fit-outs and body-corporate work are quoted with a fixed program. The quote will tell you the start date, the day count, and the working hours.
