GlintSERVICES

Your one stop shop for property maintenance and repairs.

Holes in the walls. Gutters that need clearing. A lawn that has got away. An exterior that needs washing. Make-goods between tenancies and getting a place ready for market. Glint Services takes the whole list, so you make one call instead of five and get one invoice instead of five. Agencies, property managers, body corporates and owners from Caloundra out to Coolum and back through the hinterland.

What we do

Make-goods between tenancies

Working straight off the exit condition report. Wall patching and touch-up paint, picture hook holes, scuffs and scrapes, door and cupboard adjustments, sticking locks and handles, flyscreen and blind repairs, shelving, curtain rods, silicone and sealing. Quoted line by line and done in one visit wherever the list allows.

Getting a property ready for sale

The pre-market tidy-up that lifts a listing. Patching and touch-up painting, minor carpentry, swapping tired fittings, pressure cleaning the driveway, paths and exterior, gutters cleared, garden cut back and rubbish gone. Small items off a building and pest report handled where they sit within scope.

Repairs during a tenancy

Reactive maintenance on occupied properties, with notice given and arrival times kept. Doors, locks, hinges, cabinetry, flyscreens, blinds, shelving, fittings, patching, sealing and the general wear-and-tear jobs that build up on an occupied property.

Minor carpentry and repairs

Gates and gate hardware, decking boards, skirting and architrave, trim, fence palings, latches, hooks and handrails, flat-pack and furniture assembly, and the small structural tidy-ups that sit under the licensed building threshold.

Pressure cleaning and soft washing

Driveways, paths, patios, fences, retaining walls and building exteriors. Soft washing where a hard clean would damage the surface, which covers most render, painted weatherboard and roof sheeting.

Roofs, gutters and solar

Gutter clearing and downpipe checks, roof washing and solar panel cleaning. Height work with the right equipment and safe systems of work.

Grounds and garden tidy-ups

Garden bed clearing, weeding, mulching, hedging and pruning, green waste and rubbish removal, and general grounds presentation so a property photographs and inspects well.

Reporting, and knowing where the line is

Photos before and after and a plain description of what was found, ready to forward to the owner. Anything that needs a licensed plumber, electrician or builder gets flagged rather than attempted, and anything over the QBCC licensed threshold is referred on.

Recent work

BEFORE / AFTERWeatherboard cladding streaked with mould and algae on the left, clean and bright on the right
Weatherboard cladding soft washed. Mould and algae lifted off at low pressure, which cleans the boards without driving water behind them or stripping the paint.
BEFORE / AFTERA corrugated roof covered in lichen and moss on the left, clean white sheeting on the right
Years of lichen and moss off a corrugated roof. Left alone it holds moisture against the sheeting and blocks the gutters every time it rains.
BEFOREA weathered timber deck, paint worn back and boards stained and splitting
BEFOREClose-up of deck boards rotted through and splintering at the edge
REBUILTNew treated pine decking laid and screwed down across the same area
PAINTEDThe finished deck primed and painted to match the house
Deck boards rotted through and splintering underfoot. Old decking stripped out, new treated pine laid and fixed down, then primed and painted to match the rest of the house. Safe to walk on, and no longer the first thing written up at an inspection.
BEFORECornice broken away where an air conditioner conduit passes through the wall
AFTERThe same corner with the cornice rebuilt and painted to a clean line
Cornice broken out where an air conditioner conduit had been run through it. Patched, rebuilt and painted back to a clean line. Exactly the kind of small interior repair that sits on a make-good list for months because it is too small for a trade to bother with.
BEFOREAn old poolside deck, timber weathered black and covered in leaf litter
BEFOREClose-up of a deck board rotted right through, leaving a hole
IN PROGRESSNew hardwood decking boards being laid around the pool, joists exposed where the old boards were lifted
FINISHEDThe finished hardwood deck running beside the pool, boards laid and oiled
Poolside deck, weathered through and rotted out in places, with boards failing underfoot. Old boards lifted, joists checked, new hardwood laid and spaced to match the existing run, then oiled off. Safe underfoot and back to something an owner would put in a listing photo.
EXCAVATEDA rectangle dug out of the lawn beside a rendered wall, ready for paving
BEDDEDThe same area filled with a screeded sand bed, levelled ready for pavers
LAIDDark charcoal pavers laid in two rows with a mortared edge
FINISHEDThe finished paved strip running along the side of the house to the back door
A paved pad for the wheelie bins, where dragging them in and out had kicked the grass to bare dirt. Dug out to depth, screeded and levelled on a sand bed, laid and edged. Small job, but it is the sort of thing that keeps turning up on inspection reports until someone fixes it properly.
FINISHEDA rubber kerb ramp fitted along the gutter at a driveway crossover
Rubber kerb ramp fitted at a driveway crossover so cars stop grounding on the gutter lip. Small job, and the sort of thing an owner puts up with for years before someone offers to fix it.
RE-OILEDA large hardwood deck freshly oiled, boards rich and warm in the sun
RE-OILEDA front entry deck landing re-oiled, with two spare boards laid alongside
RE-OILEDA rear deck re-oiled in a darker finish, boards evenly coated
Decks stripped back and re-oiled. Timber left to grey out cracks, splinters and eventually costs a full board replacement, so a coat every year or two is the cheapest maintenance an owner can be sold.
FINISHEDA galvanised mesh storage cage built into a basement carpark, with a gate at one end
Mesh storage cage built into a basement carpark. Framed, panelled and hung with a gate, turning dead space into secure storage for the building.
BEFORE / AFTERA large commercial roof, grimy and stained on the left, cleaned down on the right
The same process at scale on a commercial roof. Larger sites are quoted by area and worked around the tenants below.

Why Glint

A make-good list is rarely one trade's work. It is a patch here, a door that will not close, two flyscreens, a driveway that has gone green and a garden that has got away. Sending three contractors at it is slow and expensive, and most of those jobs never needed a specialist. Glint Services takes the whole list: one visit where possible, one contractor, one invoice.

Behind that is seven years running a property services business across Brisbane, handling pressure cleaning, soft washing, roof and gutter work and general maintenance for residential and commercial clients, with crews working several sites at once. That is why scopes get quoted accurately the first time and jobs get closed out without being chased.

One number to call

No call centre and no dispatch queue. You speak to someone who knows your properties.

Quoted before, reported after

A written quote with a clear scope, then photos and a short note when it is done, so you have something to send the owner.

Tenants handled properly

Notice given, arrival times kept, and a civil conversation at the door. Your relationship with the tenant is not ours to damage.

Honest about scope

If a job needs a licensed builder, plumber or electrician, we say so rather than have a go at it.

Where we work

Caloundra and everything within about forty five minutes of it. If you sit just outside that and the job is worth the drive, ask anyway.

Get a quote

Send through the address and what needs doing. Most jobs can be priced the same day, and anything that needs eyes on it first gets a site visit.
