Case Study for Painting with scaffold

Case Study 1: Two-Storey Home in Baulkham Hills
The homeowners wanted to repaint their rendered facade and gable roof area. Our scaffold allowed safe access around the steep driveway. We applied Dulux Weathershield Low Sheen in Tranquil Retreat, completing the project in five days, without a single overspray or safety incident.

Case Study 2: School Hall Ceiling in Parramatta
A public school needed repainting of a 4-metre-high hall ceiling. Using aluminium mobile scaffold, our crew repainted with Dulux Professional Ceiling White over two nights to avoid class disruption. The project passed safety audit and earned positive feedback from the principal.

Case Study 3: Interior Painting of a Heritage Church in Glebe
This heritage-listed sandstone church in Glebe, Sydney, required delicate restoration of its interior walls and ceilings. The challenge was accessing ornate arches and high vaulted ceilings without disturbing the century-old timber pews and stained-glass windows.
We installed a custom aluminium scaffold system designed to fit the narrow aisles, ensuring full stability and minimal footprint. After gentle surface cleaning and spot repairs to the plaster, we applied Dulux Professional Ceiling White for the vaulted areas and Dulux Wash & Wear Low Sheen in Natural White for the walls.
The result was a renewed yet authentic finish that respected the building's historic charm. Parish members appreciated how fresh and bright the interior looked, without losing the church's timeless atmosphere.
