The Modernize team provided a totally professional outcome to the painting of our internal rooms. Care and attention to detail are the hallmark of their preparation of all surfaces and the application of the required number of coatings to achieve a superior finish. Most approachable to discuss client wishes and a pleasure to interact with. Prompt in meeting agreed work schedules and always leaving with all materials cleared carefully away. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. We had our kitchen, bathroom and laundry repainted and the transformation is remarkable. The team was meticulous with masking and preparation, you can see the care in the final result. They even helped us choose the perfect Dulux colours for each room. Genuinely lovely people to have in your home.

Used Modernize to paint the exterior of our brick home including fascias, gutters, window frames and the front fence. The prep work was extensive with proper washing, sanding and priming before any topcoats. The crew were friendly, always cleaned up at the end of each day, and the finished result is exactly what we wanted. Great value for money.

Do you specialise in heritage home painting?
Yes. We have extensive heritage home painting experience with Victorian, Edwardian and Federation homes across Melbourne. We understand the materials, techniques and colour palettes that suit period properties.
Can you match original heritage colours?
Yes. We work with the Dulux Heritage colour range and can colour-match from existing paint samples, historical records or heritage colour charts to maintain the character of your home.
Do heritage homes need special paint?
Heritage homes often have unique substrates — lime mortar, soft timber, original plaster — that require specific preparation and compatible products. Proper heritage home painting means selecting coatings that work with your home rather than against it.
