Lonsdale Street's side streets still have workers' cottages and post-war houses, then walk-up flats and the Walker Street towers closer to the centre. Shop-top rooms sit above the retail strips. Newer apartments have been added near the station. It is one of the more mixed housing stocks in the south-east: a four-room cottage, a 1960s flat and a recent apartment can all be a short walk apart. Dandenong is in the Greater Dandenong area.
Heavy-use hallways in flats show knocks, hooks and a build-up of cheap recoat layers that are not well stuck. Cottage timber has cupped weatherboards and putty missing from sashes. Concrete panels on the towers are a different surface from house brick, and they stain under window heads. Public entries need protection that a private hallway does not. Start a Dandenong interior with interior painting, then book a visit for exterior painting. The next suburbs are Parkdale, Mentone and Cheltenham.

Interior painters in Dandenong
Tower flats and cottages are both often occupied during the work. A flat may have only the living room as overflow once the bedroom starts. A house can stage front to back. Original cottage linings, 1960s flat plaster and a new apartment's board are three different interiors, sometimes inside the one suburb on the same day. In Dandenong we list the rooms and the surfaces before we book the work.
