What a paint job in Point Leo has to deal with
The houses, the weather and the rules here, and what each means for the paint.
Old coatings under post-war beach houses
Point Leo is young for a Peninsula settlement. A subdivision plan was lodged in 1934, but the Shire's history says the place did not develop as a beach resort until after World War Two, and a house and store went up in 1947. That puts its early houses in the late 1940s, 50s and 60s. Houses of that age can carry lead-based paint under newer coats, and we don't do lead paint removal, so have a test done before anyone sands.
Reaching high walls on large houses
The 2021 Census counted 118 private dwellings at Point Leo. All 59 occupied ones were separate houses, and 38 of those had four or more bedrooms, close to two in three. Another 46 were empty on census night. Bigger houses mean more wall and more of it out of reach of a ladder. Painters work from lifts such as cherry pickers on high walls.
Priming gutters and steel beside a surf beach
Point Leo sits on the shore of Western Port and has one of the closest surf beaches to Melbourne. Metal is the first thing to suffer in that air. Galvanised gutters and downpipes are primed on coastal jobs, and any bare metal is primed before colour goes on.
Keeping wet paint out of the summer afternoon wind
At the Bureau of Meteorology's Cerberus station near Crib Point, the average 3pm wind is strongest in January at 22 km/h and lightest in May at 16 km/h. Wind dries paint too quickly and carries sand onto wet surfaces, so walls facing the water need a calm morning. On hot days the crew works in the shade.

In Point Leo, 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.

| 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 |

Painting homes in Point Leo
Point Leo is a small surf-beach settlement with a big foreshore reserve, where the homes take salty onshore winds straight off Western Port. Salt spray breaks paint down quickly, so exterior surfaces get washed and prepped properly before a single coat. 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.
