8 painting techniques you should try for your next painting project
Here are some beautiful painting techniques you can use to dress up your walls.
Existing asbestos roofing needs cleaning, some sealing and painting. Exterior walls, barge boards and facia boards need painting. Wooden doors and windows need varnishing, all window putty to be replaced. Property has two buildings i.e. main house + outbuilding. Work to be done on both structures. Boundary walls also require painting.
I’m looking to build a 2 story granny flat, with half of the ground floor being a car garage. The rest of the ground floor should have an open plan kitchen and living area with a kitchen bar counter where 2 people can eat, a powder room under the stairs to the first floor, and sliding doors all across one wall. The first floor should have a bathroom, walk in closet and large bedroom with space for a coach and tv in front of the bed. Nice to haves include wooden floors, air conditioning, large windows, security bars on all entrances to the building and the upstairs, and stylistic stairs. The proposed location of the build is street facing and next to a property boundary wall, it’s important to us that no one can see into the first floor which is above street level, while still getting optimal light. I have attached some inspiration pictures for the layout of the kitchen & bedroom.
A deck sits over my bedroom. The deck has a water feature and has planter trenches built into the low perimeter wall of the deck. There are signs of damp in the ceiling of the bedroom. I suspect the water feature and planter trenches are the source of the damp. I want to remove the water feature and trenches, and ensure that those areas are waterproof.

I live in an old Victorian house. It’s a grade IIB listed property. I’ll be doing heritage-approved renovations. I’m looking for a builder that understands the requirements for these old homes as all building work needs to be sympathetic to the materials used in these houses (ie, lime mortar and plaster). Portland cement cannot be used as part of this project. Airplast is a good project that should be used instead, so a builder with knowledge of this product or similar is essential.
