What matters for painting in Sydney

  • BlueScope classes Manly and Bondi as surf marine, Botany Bay, Sydney Harbour east of the Harbour Bridge and Kurnell as exposed marine, and Darling Harbour and the Parramatta River as calm marine. The right Colorbond and fastener grade changes across those bands, so a quote written for an inland job will not last on a beachfront roof.
