Northern suburbs housing stock and what it means for prep
The inner north, Coburg, Brunswick, Northcote, Preston, Thornbury and around, is dense with Edwardian and interwar homes. Double-fronted brick from that era usually has original lime-based plaster inside, which is softer and more moisture-sensitive than the sheet plaster used from the 1970s on. It patches differently and needs the right primer.
Fibrous cement sheeting on eaves and walls is common on post-war homes through Reservoir and similar pockets. Older sheet can contain bonded asbestos, harmless when intact but something to identify before any sanding starts.
Period homes around Fitzroy North and Carlton North often carry ornate external timber, bargeboards, verandah friezes, window hoods, that needs hand preparation rather than power sanding so the profile is not flattened. Knowing which surfaces need hand work is part of quoting these jobs honestly.
