What a paint job in Hastings has to deal with
The houses, the weather and the rules here, and what each means for the paint.
Repainting the houses built in the 1960s and 1970s
Hastings grew quickly once heavy industry arrived. Victorian Places records a rush of housing subdivisions by 1970 and rapid growth through the 1970s, with public housing part of that building wave. Those houses are now fifty years old or more. Houses from before 1970 can have lead-based paint in the old layers, and we don't do lead paint removal, so have it tested before anyone sands. At the quote we check whether trims carry old oil-based paint, because it changes the prep.
Townhouses, units and rentals call for a clear written plan
The 2021 Census counted 4,685 private dwellings in Hastings. About 73% of occupied homes were separate houses and close to 25% were townhouses and other attached homes. Nearly 31% were rented. Attached homes share walls and driveways, so colours and timing need agreeing with neighbours or the owners corporation first. The free written quote sets out the prep, so owner, tenant and manager all see the same plan before anything starts.
Brick and render on the compact blocks
Hastings has kept growing since the early 1990s as new homes were added. The Shire's built form brochure for the town describes one residential area, Garden Court 3, as compact, low scale houses with contemporary fronts in brick or render and no front fences. Render shows dirt streaks and hairline cracks sooner than brick. It needs a wash, time to dry and the cracks filled before paint goes on.
Shop verandahs on the main street, steel sheds on the industrial land
Victorian Places describes a comprehensive main street shopping centre here, and the Shire's brochure maps traditional industrial and business park areas. Its guidelines picture low shops with verandahs wrapping the front and sides, and large one and two storey industrial buildings. Verandah posts and steel walls take the weather first. Bare metal is primed first, and painters work from lifts such as cherry pickers on high walls.

Don't pay to paint your Hastings home twice.
In Hastings, 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.
| What matters | The lowest bid | Aussie Painting |
|---|---|---|
| Preparation | Filler left unsanded, so every patch shows through the new paint | Filled, sanded smooth and primed where it needs it, so the finish is flat |
| The paint | Whatever's cheapest, thinned to go further | Dulux on every job |
| Coats | One coat and call it done | Enough coats for full, even coverage |
| Your home | Paint on the lights, the floor and the carpet, and a mess left behind | Everything covered, then cleaned up with no dust left, like we were never there |
| Who does the work | Whoever is free that day | All work done by trade-qualified painters |
| Who turns up | Hard to tell who's meant to be on site | A crew in uniform, so you know who's at your home |
| Insurance | Often no cover if something goes wrong | Fully insured, $20 million public liability |
| Timing | Start dates that keep moving, and no word why | A planned schedule, and a heads-up if weather changes it |
| When it fails | Peeling within months, and you pay twice | 7-year workmanship guarantee on interior walls and ceilings |
| Reaching someone | Stops answering once they're paid | Answering the phone 7 days on 0481 737 626 |

Painting homes in Hastings
Hastings faces French Island across Western Port, with the marina, the jetty and mangroves along the foreshore. Salty, damp air off the water is hard on exterior paint, so washing, sanding and priming come first on every outside job here. 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.
