Wow Painting and Decorating have always serviced the whole Gold Coast and also northern NSW. With painting you never know where the next job will be located which makes it interesting. There certainly is never any boredom of working at the same place week in and week out. Wow Painting and Decorating have also painted in locations around Brisbane.
While most of our work is predominantly on the Gold Coast we have also traveled to locations as far as Innisfail and Mackay in far north Qld. This was after the cyclones and severe flooding that occurred in those regions at the time. Most people cannot imagine the devastation that engulfs a whole city after such huge flooding. Unfortunately this week the same level of devastation has occured in Charleville, Roma and St George.
It requires huge organisation and dedication on the part of tradesmen in all areas to rebuild cities after such disasters. It's a long painstaking journey to get people back on their feet and into their homes again. On the part of the tradesmen it's a massive commitment to be away from their families for very lengthy periods of time.
My last stint of working in a disaster area was after the Mackay floods in 2008. I was away from home for 9 months. It's hard to describe the initial shock at seeing just how bad things are and realising how much work will be involved in getting houses livable again. The thing is someone has to do it but it does require huge effort and hard work around the clock, it's 7 days a week of go go go.
We offer our sympathy to the latest victims of the flooding but know that through the efforts of all people throughout the community and the men and women that will be sent there to help rebuild the areas affected by the floods there will be light at the end of the tunnel.
