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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you paint over mould?
Never paint directly over mould — it will grow back through the new paint. Proper mould treatment and painting starts with killing the mould with a specialist treatment, sealing the surface with a mould-inhibiting primer, then topcoating with a mould-resistant paint.
What causes mould on interior walls?
Mould thrives in damp, poorly ventilated areas. Common causes include inadequate ventilation in bathrooms and laundries, condensation on cold walls, leaking pipes and poor drainage around the home. Addressing the moisture source is essential before any mould painting work begins.
What paint prevents mould?
We use Dulux premium bathroom paint and specialist anti-mould coatings that contain mould inhibitors. These products resist mould growth and are designed for high-moisture environments.
Will the mould come back after painting?
If the moisture source is addressed and we use the correct treatment and products, the mould should not return. We always recommend improving ventilation and fixing any leaks as part of the solution.
