Melbourne’s Painting Professionals Who Make Property Maintenance Easy
At Melbourne City Maintenance, we know how overwhelming it can feel to organise trades, chase quotes, manage permits, and try to make your home or property look the way you want it to. Since 2005, we’ve made it our mission to take that stress off your plate and to raise the bar in Melbourne’s painting and property maintenance industry.
We bring five-star service, honest communication, and a refreshingly “no-fuss” approach to every job we take on, whether we’re repainting your weatherboard home in Northcote or preparing an apartment in Clifton Hill for new tenants.
We’re not just painters. We’re project partners.
When you work with us, you don’t just get skilled tradespeople, you get a team that manages the whole process for you.
We take care of:
- Council and electrical permits
- Traffic management
- Minor plaster and carpentry repairs
- Colour consulting
- Access and EWP equipment
- Collaboration with other trades (like electricians or plumbers)
You don’t need to coordinate multiple contractors or chase approvals. We handle it, so you don’t have to.
Who We Work With
We specialise in painting and maintenance projects for:
- Residential homeowners looking to refresh or personalise their space
- Commercial property managers who need reliable, high-quality outcomes
- Body corporates managing apartment complexes or strata properties
- New homeowners wanting to make their place feel like home
- Landlords preparing properties for lease or sale
While we’re happy to discuss a wide range of projects, we’re best suited to clients who need more than “just one wall painted.” If your project needs planning, care, and attention to detail, that’s where we shine.
