Painting the outside of a house in Bonbeach
The houses, the weather and the streets here, and what each means for the outside of a house.
Wind and salt at the beach end of the street
Bonbeach's whole coastline is sandy beach facing Port Phillip, and streets such as Williams Grove run from Point Nepean Road straight down to it. In 1927 that one street had 12 holiday houses and 7 lived in all year. Houses at the beach end take the wind and salt first. Window frames, gutters and metal fence posts rust from the fixings, and paint on the weather side fades and chalks. Rust is treated and primed, and on coastal jobs our painters prime galvanised gutters and downpipes before the top coat.
Painting row houses as one job
Bonbeach changed quickly in the 2000s. Separate houses fell from 52.2% of dwellings in 2001 to 46.5% in 2011, while row houses and flats rose from 39.5% to 49.1%. By 2021, 47.6% of homes were townhouses or semi-detached, more than three times the Victorian share. Where two or three homes share a wall, a driveway or a front fence, the owners corporation or strata manager can ask us for one quote, so the walls are prepared and painted to match.
Old enamel on the post-war houses
Urban growth came to Bonbeach after World War II, and its State primary and high schools opened in 1958. Houses from those years often have oil-based enamel on doors, window frames and fascias, which changes the prep, so the quote checks the trims. Houses from before 1970 can also have lead-based paint in the older layers, and Aussie Painting doesn't do lead paint removal, so have it tested before any sanding if you're not sure.
Shaded walls near the river and the golf course
The Patterson River forms Bonbeach's southern edge. It was cut through the Carrum Swamp in 1879 to drain it, and the Patterson River golf links, opened in 1926, lie just east of the schools. Walls near the river and the course that sit in shade under trees stay damp longer after rain and grow mould. The mould is washed off and killed and the wall left to dry before painting. We don't start outside work when rain or heavy dew is due.

Exterior Repaint in Bonbeach
In Bonbeach, most houses were built after World War II, with many row houses and flats added in the 2000s. Houses from before 1970 can have lead-based paint in the older layers. Aussie Painting doesn't do lead paint removal, so if you're not sure, have it tested before any sanding. Bonbeach sits on Port Phillip Bay, and salt air is hard on exterior paint and bare metal. About 48% of homes in Bonbeach are townhouses or semi-detached. For shared walls, fences and outside areas we can quote the owners corporation or strata manager directly. On coastal jobs we prime galvanised gutters and downpipes before they're painted. We don't start outside work when rain or heavy dew is due, and on hot days we work in the shade, so the paint goes on and dries the way it should.

A local who actually cares
Bonbeach painting questions, answered.
Quotes and price
Do you paint houses in Bonbeach?
Yes. We paint homes in Bonbeach and the suburbs around it, inside and out. Call or send the form and we'll come and look at the job.
How do I get a quote?
Call us or send the form with a line about the job and where you are. We'll arrange a time to look at it and give you a written quote. The quote is free.
How much does it cost to paint a house?
It depends on the size of the area, how much preparation the surfaces need, their condition, access and height, and how many coats it takes. We don't guess over the phone: we look at the job and put the price in writing, with each of those explained.
Do you take a deposit?
Yes, but only enough to cover the materials for your job. Everything else about payment is set out in your written quote before we start.
The job itself
Who actually does the painting?
Daniel's team of trade-qualified painters. Daniel runs the business and is your contact from the quote to the final walk-through.
What paint do you use?
Dulux, on every job. We pick the right Dulux product for the surface, whether that's a wet-area ceiling, weatherboards or a factory wall.
What time of year is best for exterior painting?
Dry, mild weather. Paint needs a dry surface and a temperature in the manufacturer's range while it cures, so exterior work is planned around the forecast. You get a planned schedule, and if rain moves the dates we tell you.
Do weatherboards need to be stripped back before painting?
Not always. Sound paint is sanded and spot-primed; flaking or failed paint is taken back until it's sound. We'll tell you which your house needs when we look at it.
Peace of mind
Are you insured?
Fully insured, $20 million public liability, on every job.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. We back our work with a 7-year workmanship guarantee on interior walls and ceilings. The guarantee covers peeling, flaking or blistering of paint we applied, caused by our preparation or application: 7 years on eligible interior walls and ceilings, 12 months on other eligible painted surfaces, and no fixed period on decks, floors, paths, stains, oils and clear finishes. It stays with the customer who paid for the job and doesn't pass to a new owner. Other conditions apply. The full terms are on our guarantee page.
When can I reach you?
Answering the phone 7 days. Call 0481 737 626, or send the form any time.
