Painters in Glenroy

Modernize Solutions has painted Glenroy homes since 1987, across its post-war brick veneers and weatherboards. Glenroy is a hard-working northern suburb with a housing stock to match, built largely on post-war brick veneers and weatherboard homes from the 1950s and 1960s. The streets around Pascoe Vale Road and Wheatsheaf Road are full of these solid family homes, and plenty are being updated as a new generation of owners moves in.

Each of those homes needs the right hand. A brick veneer prepares differently to a weatherboard, and getting the preparation right is what separates a repaint that lasts from one that peels in a couple of years. We assess the surface, match the right Dulux product and do the groundwork properly before topcoating.

We have painted northern suburbs homes since 1987. More than three decades in the area means we know Glenroy's housing stock and the finishes that hold up here.

What we paint in Glenroy

Glenroy is built largely on post-war brick veneer and weatherboard homes from the 1950s and 1960s, around Pascoe Vale Road and Wheatsheaf Road. A brick veneer prepares differently to a weatherboard, and getting that groundwork right is what makes the finish last.

Brick veneer homes

The post-war brick veneers here need the brickwork and render cleaned and prepped before painting. We do the groundwork properly and match the right Dulux product to the surface so it does not peel.

Weatherboard homes

The weatherboard homes have timber that often needs attention after decades of weather. We prime bare timber, repair what needs it and finish in an exterior-grade Dulux product.

Renovation work

Plenty of these family homes are being updated and extended. We work around the renovation and match the new sections to the original so the result reads as one home.

Interior repaints

Inside, post-war homes often have tired walls and ceilings ready for a refresh. We patch and prep the plaster and roll out a clean, even finish in the right interior product.

What painting costs in Glenroy

Every quote is itemised and fixed before we start, so there are no surprises on the invoice. On a Glenroy home the cost comes down to the surface, since a weatherboard needing timber prep takes more work than a sound brick veneer, and we put it all in writing up front.

Common questions

What does it cost to repaint a brick veneer in Glenroy?

The cost depends on the size of the home, the state of the existing paint and the preparation required. We do not give numbers over the phone without seeing the home, because every house is different. We come out, assess it in person and give you a detailed written quote at no cost.

Do you paint weatherboard homes in Glenroy?

Yes. Many Glenroy homes are weatherboard, and they often need timber repairs before repainting. We inspect every board, replace or splice any that are rotted or split, fill gaps with flexible filler and prime all bare timber before topcoating. That preparation is what makes the finish last.

Can you work around a renovation in Glenroy?

Yes. Glenroy sees plenty of renovation as owners update older homes. We coordinate with your builder and other trades, fit into the construction timeline and blend new work with the original so the finished result reads as one home.

Are you a local northern suburbs painting business?
