Experienced Queenslander Restoration Painting

Queenslander homes are part of what makes South East Queensland’s streetscapes so distinctive, and restoring them properly takes more than a fresh coat of paint. It takes genuine experience with traditional timber construction, an understanding of how these homes age, and the patience to do the job right.
At Barton’s, Queenslander restoration is a craft our team has built over many years, and it’s work we’re genuinely proud of.

James began his restoration career working on colonial homes in Rockhampton, a period that gave him a deep understanding of aged timber, period details, and the careful preparation these properties demand. That hands-on expertise now runs through the entire Barton’s team. Whether your home needs a full repaint, targeted restoration work, or help managing older paint systems, we approach every project with the same level of care.

Protecting the Character of Your Heritage Home

Queenslanders are known for their wraparound verandahs, intricate fretwork, and elevated timber frames, features that set them apart and need to be treated with respect.

Good restoration painting doesn’t just make your home look better today; it protects those details from moisture, UV damage, and the slow wear of Queensland’s climate. We take the time to prepare surfaces properly and apply coatings that are durable and suited to traditional timber construction, so your home holds onto its character for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? Here are some of the most common questions we receive from homeowners and businesses across Greater Brisbane.

Queenslander restoration painting is the process of professionally repainting and preserving a traditional Queenslander home, with special attention to its timber construction, period features, and architectural details. Unlike standard painting jobs, restoration work requires careful surface preparation, knowledge of how aged timber behaves, and an understanding of the materials and techniques suited to these older homes. Done well, it protects the home from weather damage while keeping its heritage character intact.

In most cases, repainting a Queenslander does not require council approval — however, if your home is heritage-listed or located within a heritage overlay area, certain restrictions may apply to the colours or materials you can use. It’s worth checking with your local council before committing to a colour palette. We’re familiar with working on homes in heritage-sensitive areas and are happy to help you navigate this process. When in doubt, we recommend contacting your local council’s heritage officer before work begins.

Lead-based paint was commonly used in Australian homes built before 1970, and many Queenslanders fall into this category. At Barton’s, we take lead paint seriously. Before any preparation work begins, we assess the existing paint system and follow safe work practices in line with current Australian guidelines — including controlled removal, appropriate containment, and correct disposal. We don’t cut corners on this. Protecting your family and our team is a non-negotiable part of every restoration job we take on.

Barton’s Painting and Decorating has specialised in Queenslander restoration for over a decade. Founder James Barton spent years in Rockhampton working exclusively on traditional colonial homes — developing real hands-on expertise in timber preparation, restoration techniques, and period-appropriate finishes. We’re locally based in the Redlands, fully QBCC licensed (Licence No. 15315253), and we never use subcontractors. Every job is completed by our own qualified team, so you always know exactly who is working on your home. We’re also fully insured and committed to transparent, honest quoting.

Yes, we provide full interior and exterior painting services as part of our Queenslander restoration projects.
