There’s nothing like a newly painted bathroom to freshen up your home. But, just because it’s a small room, doesn’t mean it’s an easy task. You need a quality job done right if you want your bathroom paint to be able to stand up to the constantly changing humidity levels. Luckily, in our 40+ years of painting bathrooms, we’ve learnt a few tricks that will help to prevent mould, blistering and flaking from ruining your freshly painted bathroom.

- Your house is a home – If you don’t have a second bathroom you’re probably wondering how your bathroom can be painted when the kids still need to be bathed. We’ve done it all before so let our experience guide you in making your bathroom painting work around the rest of your life.

Our bathroom painting process
The high moisture in bathrooms means that a poorly painted bathroom can crack, flake and go mouldy after just a few months. Here at Rochele, we follow a detailed plan to clean, prep and paint your bathroom for a superb and long-lasting finish.Once we’ve agreed on a new look for your bathroom, our professional painting process includes:
- Thorough cleaning – Whether you can see it or not, mould and mildew on your bathroom walls can prevent fresh paint from adhering. We thoroughly clean all bathroom surfaces before we start to prevent flaking.
- Protecting your cabinets, fixtures and fittings – We’ll remove what we can from your bathroom and cover cabinets, fixtures and fittings to prevent any spills or specks from ruining the final picture.
- Professional preparation – Sanding, priming and plastering any damaged spots is essential for a smooth and long-lasting finish. We’ve got qualified tradespeople to do it all.
- Quality paints – You’ll be able to choose from a range of quality paint brands while we make sure the type of paint we use in your bathroom is the right type to prevent water staining, mould build-up and make cleaning easy.
- Proper dry times – To prevent your new paint job from becoming soft and runny we’ll advise how long you should wait before using your new bathroom so the perfect finish stays that way.
Finishing touches
Once we’ve finished painting your bathroom we’ll clean up and leave your home tidy. One of our QBCC licensed supervisors will conduct a quality inspection, make any touch-ups if necessary and then walk you through your own inspection.
We’ll even leave you with a small pot of matching paint so you won’t have to try to remember what colour we used if you ever need it.
