Interior Painting

Learn moreExterior House Painting
The sun, salt and seasonal movement that homes in the Adelaide Hills deal with all show up on exterior paint first. SA Painting Professionals prepares Crafers exteriors properly, uses 100% acrylic topcoats and flexible fillers on cracked render, and leaves the site clean every day.
Learn moreCommercial & Strata Painting
Facility managers and landlords with commercial property in Crafers get one licensed and insured contractor for interiors, exteriors, steel and car parks. SA Painting Professionals provides SWMS, ticketed operators for lifts and a written program for every job.
Learn moreIndustrial Painting & Coatings
Builders and engineers working in the Adelaide Hills use SA Painting Professionals for protective coatings on new and existing steel in Crafers. We price to your specification, apply zinc-rich primers, epoxies and polyurethanes to AS/NZS 2312.1 and record film thickness for your handover documentation.
Learn moreNew Build Painting
Building in Crafers? SA Painting Professionals provides full paint packages for new homes, townhouses and unit developments in the Adelaide Hills, priced from the plans and booked into the construction program: sealer and first coats after plaster, enamel and final coats after fit-off, and external render and trim in between.
Learn moreRepaints & Restoration
If you are selling a home in Crafers, restoration painting on the street frontage, entry and main rooms is one of the more visible improvements you can make. SA Painting Professionals quotes the work in stages so you can decide what to do before the photographs and what can wait.
Learn moreRoof Painting & Restoration
Landlords in Crafers often call us when a roof has gone mossy and porous and the ceiling is starting to show it. A restoration before the coating fails completely is far cheaper than a re-roof, and we schedule the cleaning, repairs and membrane coats around tenants and the weather.
Learn moreFence, Deck & Timber Staining
Decks, pergolas and fences in Crafers go grey and dry out quickly under the South Australian sun. SA Painting Professionals strips and brightens weathered timber, replaces rotten boards and palings, then oils, stains or paints it with products chosen for the exposure, so the outdoor areas look right and last.
Learn moreWallpaper & Feature Walls
A papered bed head wall or a deep-colour living room wall is one of the quickest ways to change a home in Crafers. SA Painting Professionals prepares and primes the wall, hangs the paper plumb with the pattern matched and seams flat, or paints the feature wall in as many coats as the colour needs.
Learn moreProtective & Specialty Coatings
If you own a home in Crafers with a garage floor that stains, a balcony that leaks or render that keeps cracking, a protective coating is usually the fix. We grind, repair and prime before the system goes on, and tell you in writing when it can be walked on and driven on.
Learn moreSurface Preparation & Repairs
Builders and renovators in the Adelaide Hills bring us in to prepare surfaces in Crafers properly: skimming patched plasterboard, sealing new render, priming bare timber and steel, and caulking every gap so the finish coats look right and stay put for years.
Learn moreLine Marking & Floor Painting
Line marking in Crafers covers car park bays, accessible bays and symbols, warehouse walkways and hazard zones, sports courts and painted kerbs and bollards. SA Painting Professionals sets out from a marking plan, uses paints suited to the surface and schedules the work around traffic and trading hours.

Exterior House Painting in the Adelaide Hills
Repainting render and brick homes in Crafers
Many homes in Crafers and nearby Cleland, Crafers West, Stirling are rendered or face brick, and each needs its own approach. Render on reactive clay soil cracks at movement points as the ground swells and shrinks with the seasons. SA Painting Professionals rakes out and fills hairline cracks with a flexible filler, bridges wider or recurring cracks with an elastomeric membrane coating, then seals and applies two coats of UV-resistant acrylic. Face brick is sealed first because it is porous. Chalky, faded render is bound with a penetrating sealer so the new paint bonds instead of peeling off the powdery layer underneath.

Local knowledge
Painting homes and businesses in Crafers
Every house in Crafers has its own history of previous paint jobs, patched walls and surfaces that were never primed. That is why we quote on site in metro Adelaide rather than guessing from a description. Seeing the walls, the timber and the old coatings lets SA Painting Professionals give you an accurate price, a realistic timeframe and honest advice about what can be overcoated and what has to be stripped.
Hills housing is as varied as the terrain. Hahndorf, Lobethal, Woodside, Gumeracha and Mount Torrens have 1840s to 1880s settler cottages and shopfronts in local stone with lime mortar, some with timber-framed and rendered walls. Stirling, Aldgate, Crafers and Heathfield hold Victorian and Edwardian summer residences, weatherboard cottages and 1970s timber pole homes tucked into bush blocks, alongside newer architect-designed houses. Mount Barker, Littlehampton and Nairne have old stone cores wrapped in decades of growth, and the newest estates there are brick veneer, render, Hebel and Colorbond. Lenswood, Forest Range, Uraidla and Summertown are orchard and market garden country with farmhouses, packing sheds and cool stores. Echunga, Meadows, Macclesfield and Kangarilla are rural townships and hobby farms with homesteads in weatherboard and stone.
Roofs, gutters and car parks on Crafers commercial buildings
Metal roofs, gutters, fascias and car parks are the parts of a Crafers building most owners forget until they fail. SA Painting Professionals pressure cleans and treats rust on Colorbond and galvanised roofs, primes and recoats them, and applies heat-reflective finishes that lower roof temperature in summer. Gutters and downpipes are done at the same time. In car parks, bays, arrows and disabled spaces are line marked with durable coatings, and painted floors and ramps are finished with slip-resistant products assessed under AS 4586.
Quoting regional work in Crafers from photos
For customers outside metro Adelaide, SA Painting Professionals quotes from photos and a description first so nobody waits on a site visit. Send a picture of each elevation or room, close-ups of any damage, rough dimensions and the age of the house if you know it. We reply with a written, itemised quote covering preparation, products, labour and travel, then confirm the scope on arrival. Crafers is 20 to 50 minutes east of the CBD, and where travel is involved we group nearby jobs into one trip so the crew stays until the work is finished.

Things we consider in the Adelaide Hills
- Cold, fog and short drying days
Winter in Stirling, Piccadilly, Uraidla and Mount Barker brings frost, fog and days that never reach the minimum temperature water-based paints need to cure. Dew settles on fresh coats overnight and leaves surfactant streaks. We schedule exterior work in the Hills for the drier months, start later in the morning once surfaces are dry, stop early so the last coat sets before the dew, and keep interior work for the wet weeks. Waiting for the right window saves a recoat.
- Bushfire-prone area maintenance
Much of the Hills, from Cudlee Creek and Kersbrook to Mylor and Kangarilla, is bushfire-prone land with BAL ratings under AS 3959. Paint does not change a building's BAL rating and no paint makes a house fire-proof, so we do not claim it. What we can do is keep timber decks, verandahs, fascias and cladding sound and sealed, and use intumescent coatings on steel only where an engineer has specified them. Rebuilds after the fires around Cudlee Creek and Lobethal are new build painting on lightweight cladding and steel.
