Protect and enhance your home's exterior with expert trim and fascia painting from Sattler Painting, Canberra's fourth-generation family business delivering European-trained craftsmanship, premium materials, and exceptional results you can trust.
Over the years, we've worked with countless Canberra homeowners who've discovered the hard way that trim and fascia maintenance isn't something to put off. We've seen properties across suburbs like Deakin, Yarralumla, and Kingston where neglected fascia boards have led to timber rot and water damage, issues that could have been easily prevented with timely, professional painting.
Your home's trim and fascia boards do more than add visual appeal, they protect your property from Canberra's challenging climate. The extreme temperature swings, intense UV exposure in summer, and cold, wet winters all take their toll on exposed timber. Without proper preparation and quality paint protection, moisture seeps into the wood, creating conditions for rot, warping, and pest intrusion.
At Sattler Painting, we bring four generations of painting expertise to every trim and fascia project in Canberra ACT. Our team has been trained by one of Europe's finest master craftsmen, giving us the technical knowledge and attention to detail that sets professional work apart from a quick paint-over job. We understand that proper surface preparation, the right primer selection, and quality topcoats make all the difference in how long your paint job lasts.
Whether you're maintaining an established home or finishing new construction, we use proven techniques and premium materials to deliver lasting protection and beautiful results. Our work is backed by full trade licensing (Licence No: 1186 44C) and comprehensive insurance, giving you complete peace of mind throughout the project.

We approach every trim and fascia painting project with the same meticulous attention to detail, regardless of size. Our process begins with a thorough inspection of all timber surfaces to identify any existing damage, rot, or areas requiring repair before painting begins. This step is crucial in Canberra's climate, where hidden moisture damage can compromise even the best paint application.
Surface preparation is where our European master craftsman training really shows. We carefully clean all surfaces, remove loose or flaking paint, sand back to sound timber, and treat any bare wood with appropriate primers. For fascia boards showing signs of weathering, we take extra care to ensure proper adhesion and long-term protection. We also pay close attention to all joints, edges, and end grains, the areas most vulnerable to moisture penetration.
Our team uses only quality paints specifically formulated for exterior timber protection. We understand that Canberra's UV intensity and temperature extremes demand products that can flex with the timber through seasonal changes while maintaining their protective barrier. Depending on your home's exposure and the timber condition, we'll recommend the appropriate number of coats to ensure optimal coverage and durability.
Throughout the project, we maintain the tidy, respectful work practices that our clients consistently mention in their testimonials. We protect your gardens, pathways, and surrounding areas, and we clean up thoroughly at the end of each day. Our goal is to deliver exceptional results while making the process as hassle-free as possible for you and your family.

As a fourth-generation, family-owned business, we've built our reputation on quality workmanship and honest service. Our longevity in the industry isn't by accident, it's the result of consistently delivering on our promises and treating every home as if it were our own. Many of our clients come to us through word-of-mouth recommendations from neighbours, friends, and family members who've experienced our work firsthand.
What sets us apart is our commitment to proper training and professional standards. Our team has been trained by one of Europe's finest master craftsmen, bringing old-world attention to detail and proven techniques to every project.

The frequency depends on several factors including the quality of the previous paint job, timber condition, and your home's exposure to weather. In Canberra's climate, most trim and fascia painting lasts between 5-10 years when done properly with quality materials. Homes with northern or western exposure may need repainting sooner due to increased UV and heat exposure. We recommend inspecting your trim and fascia annually for signs of peeling, cracking, or fading, as early intervention can prevent more costly timber repairs down the track.
Yes, we can paint fascia and trim during Canberra's cooler months, though we do need suitable weather conditions. We avoid painting when temperatures drop below the paint manufacturer's minimum application temperature, typically around 10°C, or when rain is forecast within the curing period. Winter can actually be ideal for exterior house painting as there's less intense UV exposure and lower humidity. We monitor weather forecasts closely and schedule work during suitable windows to ensure proper paint adhesion and curing.
Absolutely. Part of our preparation process includes inspecting all trim and fascia for damage, rot, or deterioration. We'll identify any issues during our initial assessment and discuss repair options with you before starting the painting work. Minor repairs like filling small cracks or replacing short sections of damaged timber can often be handled as part of the project. For more extensive timber damage, we'll provide honest advice about what needs attention to ensure the paint job lasts and your home remains properly protected.
We use premium exterior paints specifically formulated for timber protection. The exact product depends on your home's specific needs, existing paint system, and exposure conditions. We typically recommend high-quality acrylic or oil-based systems that offer excellent UV resistance, flexibility, and moisture protection, essential qualities for Canberra's climate extremes. We're happy to discuss paint options during your free quote and explain why we recommend particular products for your situation.
Yes, protecting your property is a standard part of our service. Before we begin any painting work, we carefully cover garden beds, paving, outdoor furniture, and any other areas that could be affected. We use drop sheets and appropriate masking to ensure paint doesn't end up where it shouldn't. Our clients consistently mention our tidiness in their testimonials, and we take pride in leaving your property clean and respecting your outdoor spaces throughout the project.
