Painting the outside of a house in Rosebud
Every suburb is a different paint job. Here is what's particular to Rosebud, and what each thing means for the work.
Flat streets a block from the bay
Rosebud is flat, and it follows Port Phillip Bay for kilometres. The numbered avenues, First to Ninth, run back from Point Nepean Road, and on the water side only the foreshore reserve sits between the road and the beach. With no hill or headland in the way, salt air carries well back into those streets. The side of a house that faces the bay wears out first. On coastal jobs our painters prime galvanised gutters and downpipes before the top coat goes on.
Holiday bungalows in timber and fibro
Cars turned Rosebud into a holiday town in the 1920s, and the farmland behind it filled with houses from the 1950s. The Shire's history of the Peninsula describes the holiday house of those years as a single-storey bungalow in timber, concrete block or fibro-cement sheet. Old fibro is asbestos cement, and Victoria's health advice is that houses built before the mid-1980s are highly likely to contain asbestos products. Aussie Painting doesn't take on old fibro. If your house is clad in it, or you're not sure, say so when you ask for a quote.
More than one house in four sits empty
On census night in 2021, 28% of Rosebud's private dwellings had nobody home. A house that is shut for months hides its problems. Paint peels on the weather side, a gutter rusts through, and nobody sees it until the next visit. Walk around the outside each spring. We don't start outside work when rain or heavy dew is due, and on hot days our painters work in the shade, so the paint dries the way it should.
A few old houses come with paint rules
Several Rosebud houses sit under the Shire's Heritage Overlay with external paint controls switched on, among them Rose Cottage at 30 Foam Street, Woyna House in Terry Street and Elenora at 1517 Point Nepean Road. Paint controls can mean a planning permit before the outside colours change. If your house is on the heritage list, check with the Shire before you pick colours. We quote to the scheme they approve.

In Rosebud, like anywhere, the cheapest quote skips the prep, uses cheap paint and does one coat. It looks fine for a few months, then it peels, and you're paying someone to strip it and start again.

Exterior Repaint in Rosebud
In Rosebud, most houses were built from the 1950s on. 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. Rosebud sits on Port Phillip Bay, and salt air is hard on exterior paint and bare metal. 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. Rosebud is flat and built mostly from the 1950s, and its long foreshore is one of the Peninsula's big summer camping strips. Plenty of older beach houses here are now well weathered, with flaking paint on timber that needs scraping back before repainting.

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.

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.
Peace of mind

Yes. Every job comes with a 7-year workmanship guarantee. If something fails because of how we did it, we come back and fix it.
