Porter Street, Newmans Road and the courts off them traverse steep Manningham hillsides. The established house is often a split-level or two-storey brick home in brown or cream veneer, with a garage underneath and living areas above to catch the outlook. Contemporary knock-down rebuilds in render and extensive glazing now stand between those earlier houses. Flat apartment sites are rare. Blocks are large enough for retaining walls, pools and long sloping drives. Templestowe is in the Manningham area.
Underside walls and the garage level, set into the hill, show efflorescence and blistered paint where groundwater tracks through. Deck structures are large and highly exposed, with checked boards and rusted connectors. Render on new rebuilds cracks at articulated joints above the old brick neighbours. Steep drives limit where a scissor lift can stand, so upper eaves may need alternative access agreed before work starts. Templestowe interiors can start with interior painting. exterior painting is priced after we have seen the house. Neighbouring guides: Templestowe Lower and Doncaster East.
Interior painting
Interior painters in Templestowe
Houses, including rebuilds, account for virtually all dwellings. Older split-levels already separate living upstairs from bedrooms or a rumpus below, so an extension often enlarges the upper living room rather than adding a ground-floor lean-to. Rebuilds tend to be open across the view and do not retain the original room sequence at all. In Templestowe we list the rooms and the surfaces before we book the work.

Before we price the outside of a Templestowe home we look at Brown brick, render rebuilds and elevated timber decks. Height, repairs and the existing coating belong in the quotation.
