Queenslander homes done properly.

Timber expands and contracts with Queensland's heat and humidity. Skip the prep and even the best paint will fail within two years. Empire Painting strips back to bare timber wherever needed, replaces rotted boards, fills gaps with flexible fillers, and primes correctly before a single coat of topcoat goes on.

Colour selection matters just as much as prep. Tony works with homeowners to find shades that suit the era of the home — whether that's a faithful restoration to original Federation or Interwar palette, or a considered contemporary twist that still respects the architecture.

All Queenslander exterior work uses Dulux Weathershield, applied to manufacturer spec. The result holds its colour and adhesion for years rather than months.
