About C&S Decorators
A Business Built on Craftsmanship
C & S Decorators Pty Ltd was founded by Colin Lochery over 20 years ago, born from a vision to raise the standard of painting services in South Australia. Colin brought a wealth of international construction experience, having worked across Europe and the Middle East including Dubai before returning to Adelaide to launch his own business. From the very beginning, his goal was clear: to deliver painting services that are reliable, high-quality, and built to last. Today, that commitment continues through a small, tight-knit team that upholds the same values. Operating from Seaford Rise, we specialise in residential and commercial painting across both metro and coastal locations. Our reputation is built on honest communication, attention to detail, and doing the job right the first time. We pride ourselves on using premium products and providing long-term value to every client. At C & S Decorators, painting isn’t just our job, it’s our craft.
Consistency, Quality, and Care in Every Job
At C & S Decorators, we approach every project with the same level of care and commitment, regardless of size. From the initial enquiry through to the final inspection, we make sure each stage is handled professionally and respectfully. We believe that true quality isn’t about being the cheapest, it’s about providing long-term value. That’s why we only use premium, long-lasting paint products from trusted brands such as Dulux, Wattyl, and Porters Paints. Our years of experience working in South Australia’s varied conditions, particularly coastal homes, mean we understand what it takes to produce a finish that not only looks great but stands the test of time. We listen carefully, communicate clearly, and work with minimal disruption to deliver seamless results. With over 45 years of industry experience, Colin remains hands-on in every project, ensuring each job reflects the high standards and personalised service that define our business.

What Our Client Said
hear from our valued clients
I couldn’t be happier with the results. Thanks to Steve and the C & S team for their professionalism, attention to detail, and clear pride in their work. They took the time to answer my questions, were polite, punctual, and respectful throughout the job. Steve listened carefully to my ideas and provided helpful suggestions around colour and finish. The whole process felt easy and stress-free. I’ve already recommended them to friends!
Christine Hosking
We engaged C & S Decorators for a multi-unit repaint, and the experience was outstanding. From quoting to completion, the team was efficient, communicative, and extremely thorough. They respected tenant needs, kept the site clean, and delivered a top-quality finish across all buildings. It’s rare to find a contractor so committed to both workmanship and client service.
Garry Little
Excellent service. Cannot fault. They were polite, professional, reliable. Provided helpful advice which I am so glad I took. I needed a carpenter to make some repairs before the painting could commence. They were able to recommend a carpenter who was professional, responsive and at a good price. Similarly, the painters did a great job at a very good price. Left property tidy. No mess. Highly recommend. Very happy.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you Colin and Steve.
