What a paint job in Frankston South has to deal with
The houses, the weather and the rules here, and what each means for the paint.
Why the shade on these walls is here to stay
The planning scheme calls Frankston South the highest land in the municipality, and its landscape overlay wants a permit for removing any tree whose trunk measures over half a metre around. Sweetwater Creek adds 13 hectares of bush in its lower reserve and 5.3 more upstream. That canopy is permanent, so south sides stay damp and turn green. They need a wash, then time to dry, and outside painting waits if rain or a heavy dew is forecast.
Quiet colours and salt along the cliff
Council's brochure for the cliff describes very large blocks stretching from Nepean Highway to the coastal edge, with houses from the 1920s and 30s through to today, often built two storeys high for the sea view. Lower on the slope council asks for subdued colours on outside finishes. Nothing stands between these houses and the bay, so on coastal jobs galvanised gutters and downpipes get primed ahead of paint.
Large two storey houses, and more of everything to paint
In 2021, 85.9% of dwellings here were separate houses and 43.6% had four or more bedrooms, where the figure for Victoria is 32.6%. In the 1990s subdivisions council describes houses as large and often two storey. Size is the story outside: longer fascias, extra windows, more gutter, and an upper floor to reach. The free written quote sets out the prep for each part.
Owner-occupied homes, painted with the family in them
Just 15.9% of homes are rented, 41.9% carry a mortgage and 75.5% of households are families. These are long-term family homes, so an inside repaint usually has to move through the house a few rooms at a time, with bedrooms and the kitchen back in use each evening.

Painting homes in Frankston South
In Frankston South, most houses were built after World War II and through the 1960s. 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. Frankston South is hilly and leafy, with plenty of homes on sloping blocks, so we plan safe access and ladders or scaffolding before quoting exterior work. Tall trees and shade mean some walls stay damp and grow mould, which has to be treated before painting or the new paint won't hold. I'm Daniel Dimsey, born and raised on the Mornington Peninsula. Aussie Painting is a local, Australian-owned business painting house interiors and exteriors across Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. We genuinely care about every job: we use Dulux paints and put the real time into preparation, because good preparation is what stops paint flaking and peeling early. Interior walls and ceilings are backed by our 7-year workmanship guarantee, and all work is done by qualified painters.
