Painters Lenah Valley

If you’re looking for painters in Lenah Valley, Performance Painting provides interior, exterior and restoration painting for homes throughout the area.

I’m Luke from Performance Painting, a family painting business established in 1994.

We work throughout Greater Hobart and regularly deal with the sort of homes found around Lenah Valley — from older weatherboard properties through to more modern family homes.

Our approach is straightforward: inspect the job properly, prepare the surfaces properly and use the right coating system for the condition of the home.

House Painting in Lenah Valley

Every home is different.

Older properties may need more preparation because of ageing weatherboards, cracking plaster, previous repairs or multiple layers of old coatings.

Newer homes can have their own issues, including settlement cracks, damaged plaster and tired interior finishes.

That is why we prefer to inspect the property before giving a firm quote.

Interior Painting

Interior painting can include:

  • Walls and ceilings
  • Doors and trims
  • Living areas
  • Bedrooms
  • Kitchens and hallways
  • Plaster repairs and preparation
  • Wallpaper removal
  • Wallpaper installation

Older Lenah Valley homes can sometimes have lath-and-plaster walls or previous patch repairs that need more attention than modern plasterboard.

For more information, see our Interior Painters Hobart page.

Exterior Painting

Exterior painting is heavily influenced by preparation.

Depending on the home, that may include:

  • Washing down
  • Scraping loose paint
  • Sanding
  • Priming bare timber
  • Filling and repairs
  • Dealing with failed gaps and sealants
  • Preparing weathered weatherboards

Hobart’s sun, winter damp and changing weather conditions can all affect exterior coatings over time.

For broader information about our exterior work, see our Exterior Painters Hobart page.

Older and Weatherboard Homes

Lenah Valley has plenty of older homes where preparation is particularly important.

Weatherboards may have peeling coatings, exposed timber, failed joints or previous repairs that need attention before repainting.

We do not believe in simply covering those issues and hoping for the best.

Our Weatherboard Painters Hobart guide explains more about how we approach older timber homes.

Restoration Painting

Some homes need more than a straightforward repaint.

Detailed timberwork, older plaster, ageing weatherboards and previous repairs can all require additional preparation.

We regularly work on older and character homes around Hobart and take the time to assess what the surfaces actually need.
