About C&F™
Cutter & Fitch is a premium painting business working across homes, heritage properties and commercial spaces in the Greater Geelong region.
Every project is led personally by Travis Kelly — same hands on the brush, same standard from the first surface check to the final walkthrough.
Travis has been painting for over twenty years — the last ten of them running Cutter & Fitch. What started as one tradesman's insistence on doing the job properly has grown into a business built the same way: considered, precise, and made to last.
Every job we complete now leaves behind more than a fresh coat of paint — a record of it, sent to you and kept for whoever owns the home next.
Behind C&F™
Cutter & Fitch was built on a simple idea: paint is a craft, not a commodity. The difference between a finish that lasts and one that doesn't is almost always in the preparation.
That's why the work stays small and hands-on — one point of contact, one standard, and nothing handed off to a stranger. Where trusted tradespeople are brought in, they work to the same standard, with Travis overseeing every step.

What Our Clients Say
My husband and I hired Travis to paint the exterior of our Edwardian weatherboard house 10 years ago. … We have recommended him to many of our friends and family who have also used his services.
Rod & Leanne — Newtown
Around 10 years ago I engaged Travis to paint a small extension at my place and it still looks as though it was painted yesterday! … I felt very comfortable leaving the house while he was working there.
Jenny — Geelong West
I have been recommending Travis to my clients for painting works for over 10 years, and throughout that time he has consistently delivered an exceptionally high standard of workmanship. … When you recommend someone to your clients, their work and service ultimately reflect on you as well, which is why I have continued to confidently recommend Travis for more than a decade.
Dylan Taggert — Director, Buxton Geelong Group
I have known Travis Kelly from Cutter & Fitch PTY LTD for approximately 10 years as a customer of Taubmans Paint. … Throughout our decade-long business relationship, Travis has consistently demonstrated outstanding professionalism and reliability.
