Canberra Painting Business Founded on Trade Heritage and Business Expertise

Family Painting Heritage Shapes Luke Chamberlain’s Approach at C&C Painting Group

Mitchell, Australia – July 7, 2026 / C&C Painting Group /

C&C Painting Group, a Dulux-accredited painting and decorating business based in Mitchell, ACT, was established in 2018 by husband-and-wife team Luke and Tanya Chamberlain. The company was built around a clear purpose: to bring together hands-on trade craftsmanship and structured business management, delivering a consistent and professional experience for residential and commercial clients across the capital.

A Business Built on Complementary Strengths

When Luke and Tanya Chamberlain founded C&C Painting Group in 2018, the decision reflected something more considered than simply entering the trades market. Luke Chamberlain brought a background shaped by family involvement in the painting industry, developing practical craftsmanship across a wide range of painting and decorating projects over many years. Tanya contributed a distinct and equally important skill set – business management expertise that gave the company a structured operational foundation from the outset.

Together, the pair brought more than 25 years of combined experience to the venture, spanning both the practical and administrative dimensions of running a professional trade business. That combination sits at the core of what C&C Painting Group was designed to be: a company where quality workmanship and attentive client communication are treated as equally important.

Addressing a Gap in the Canberra Trades Market

The founding of C&C Painting Group responded to a gap the Chamberlains had observed within the local trades landscape. Clients engaging painting contractors often encountered businesses that delivered strong technical results but fell short on communication, project management, or follow-through – or conversely, operations that were well-managed but lacking in craft. Luke and Tanya Chamberlain structured C&C Painting Group specifically to bridge those two areas, pairing professional-grade results with the kind of client service more commonly associated with industries outside the trades.

Luke Chamberlain’s approach to the work draws directly from a family background in painting, where technique and attention to detail were foundational values. That heritage informs how C&C Painting Group approaches each project – from surface preparation through to the final coat – with a focus on durability and finish quality that reflects the standards of an experienced tradesperson.

Dulux Accreditation and Professional Standards

A notable aspect of C&C Painting Group’s positioning is its Dulux Accreditation, a recognition that signals adherence to particular product knowledge and application standards set by one of Australia’s most established paint manufacturers. For clients, this accreditation provides a degree of assurance about the materials being used and the competency of the team applying them.

Dulux Accreditation is not automatically available to all painting businesses – it requires demonstrated capability and a commitment to ongoing professional standards. For Canberra painters operating in a competitive local market, holding this status reinforces credibility and distinguishes businesses that maintain a measurable level of professional practice.

Community Focus in Mitchell, ACT

Operating out of Mitchell, ACT, C&C Painting Group has maintained a deliberate focus on serving the local Canberra community since its founding. For Luke Chamberlain and Tanya Chamberlain, this community orientation goes beyond geography – it reflects a commitment to building relationships with local clients, contributing to the standard of work visible in homes and commercial properties across the region, and operating as a business genuinely embedded in the area it serves.

“We built C&C Painting Group to offer something that can be hard to find – a painting business that takes both the craft and the client experience seriously,” said Luke Chamberlain, co-founder of C&C Painting Group. “Tanya’s expertise in running the business side means our clients are supported through every stage of a project, and my background in the trade means the work itself meets the standard we’ve always held ourselves to.”

The Canberra painters behind C&C Painting Group continue to take on residential and commercial projects, maintaining the same emphasis on quality workmanship and client communication that has defined the business since its earliest days in Mitchell.
