Our history

Founded in 1973

The DCON Painting & Sons story starts in 1973 when founder Barry Conduit established the business in Warracknabeal, in Victoria.

Barry saw a gap in the market for high quality painting and decorating services which inspired him to follow his passion to paint residential homes during renovations and one day open his own business.

Our original heritage has grown significantly over the last 47+ years and we take pride in our work, our people and our clients. Our family operated business has serviced many residential and commercial businesses since and is well regarded in the building and construction industry.

Today, DCON Painting & Sons is a leading service provider in the building, construction, Commercial Painting and Decorating industry working with various well established clients across all industries.

We are proud to be a 3rd generation family owned and operated Painting and Decorating business and we will continue to provide high quality painting and decorating services across Ballarat, Geelong, Melbourne and regional Victoria.

DCON Painting & Sons aims to at all times maintain the upmost levels of service for our customers, we listen to our employees and strive to place our business at the forefront of the painting and decorating services industry.
