Smart Quality Painting provides restoration painting for Queenslander and character timber homes across Brisbane's western corridor, from Oxley to Bardon. Weatherboard, VJ, fretwork and verandah timber are inspected, existing coatings are assessed for likely lead content, and the preparation method, coating system, colour, sheen and any excluded carpentry are recorded in a fixed written quote.
Written scope
Character timber performs differently to modern cladding, so condition, lead risk and overlay constraints are recorded before a price is set.
How we work
Six controlled stages, with lead assessment and overlay checks completed before the coating system is sold.
We walk the exterior and relevant interior surfaces, checking weatherboards, VJ, fretwork, verandah timber and window and door joinery for condition and movement.
Pre-1970s coatings are common on Queensland timber homes, so existing paint layers are assessed for likely lead content before a preparation method is proposed.
Where a property sits under a Brisbane City Council character or heritage overlay, we note what that may mean for colour or scope before recommending a palette.
Included surfaces, preparation method, primer, coating system, colour and sheen are recorded in the written quote, along with any carpentry or timber repairs that are coordinated or excluded.
Preparation follows lead-safe work practice where relevant — containment, no dry open sanding, and site clean-up — before primer and topcoats are applied to the agreed system.
Finish and coverage are checked against the written scope, and cure, care and warranty information is supplied at handover.
Quality controls
Weatherboard, VJ, fretwork and verandah timber are inspected for condition, movement and coating history before a system is proposed — not treated as a generic exterior.
Pre-1970s coatings are assessed for likely lead content, with preparation following lead-safe work practice where that risk is present.
Preparation, primer, coating system, colour and sheen are treated as one documented specification, not a verbal estimate.
Where we work
Focused on Kenmore, Chapel Hill, Toowong and Sherwood, with service from Oxley to Bardon.
