What a paint job in Tyabb has to deal with
The houses, the weather and the rules here, and what each means for the paint.
Permit before repainting the old weatherboard shopfronts
The centre of Tyabb is a heritage precinct in the planning scheme. It takes in weatherboard shops from the Victorian, Edwardian and inter-war years along Frankston-Flinders Road, some with post-supported verandahs. The 1914 cool store and two weatherboard houses in Peacock Road are listed as well. External paint controls apply, so a planning permit is needed before the outside is painted. Paint that old can contain lead, and lead paint removal is not work we do, so have it tested before anyone sands.
First full repaints on the homes built since the late 1990s
Census counts show Tyabb grew from 1,223 people in 1996 to 2,670 in 2006 and 3,306 in 2011, so a large share of its houses went up in those years. In 2021, 89.7% of occupied homes were separate houses and 44% had four or more bedrooms. A house from that wave is now 15 to 30 years old, which is when the original paint wears through and a full repaint comes due.
Planning outside work around wet winters
The Bureau of Meteorology's Cerberus station, further down the Western Port side, averages 706 mm of rain a year over about 105 wet days. May to October brings 10 to 12 wet days a month, against 4 to 6 from January to March, and 9am humidity averages 86% in May and June. No outside work is started when rain or heavy dew is due, so allow extra days for outside jobs in the cooler months.
Outbuildings and fence lines on the old orchard blocks
Orcharding stayed strong here until the 1960s. When growers sold up, rural and residential subdivisions absorbed some of the farmland, and an airfield was built south-west of the township. Those larger blocks come with sheds, gates and long fence lines as well as the house. Bare metal is primed first, and timber fences and decks are brushed and rolled.

In Tyabb, 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.

Painting homes in Tyabb
Tyabb is flat country that was once prone to swamp, now a mix of old orchard land, acreage and newer housing around the airfield and Packing House. Low-lying, damp ground means moisture at the base of walls and weatherboards, which has to be dealt with before painting or it lifts straight off. 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.
