Painters in Maidstone

Modernize Solutions has painted Maidstone homes since 1987, with our Braybrook base right next door. Maidstone sits right in the heart of our home patch, a small inner-west suburb wedged between Footscray, Maribyrnong and our base in Braybrook. The housing is a mix of post-war brick homes and weatherboard cottages, with a steady stream of new townhouses going up as the area is rediscovered by buyers priced out of neighbouring suburbs.

That mix means a range of painting needs. An older weatherboard prepares differently to a rendered townhouse, and we assess each home on its own terms. We handle older paint and timber repairs on the period homes, and bring the same care to the modern plasterboard and render of the new builds.

Maidstone is on our doorstep. We are based in neighbouring Braybrook and have painted the inner west since 1987, so we know these streets, the housing stock and what it takes to get a finish that lasts, and we are only minutes away if you need us.

What we paint in Maidstone

Maidstone sits right next to our Braybrook base, with a mix of post-war brick homes, older weatherboard cottages and a steady run of new townhouses. Each of those needs a different approach, so we assess every home on its own terms.

Post-war brick

The solid brick homes here reward proper groundwork. We clean and prepare the brick and render, repair what needs it and match the right Dulux product so the finish lasts rather than peels early.

Older weatherboards

The period cottages often have aged paint and timber that needs work. We repair the timber, scrape back and stabilise old coatings and prime properly before any topcoat goes on.

New townhouses

The modern builds going up are mostly plasterboard inside and render outside. We prepare those surfaces to suit and bring the same care to a new townhouse as we do to a period home.

Local and close by

Maidstone is on our doorstep, so we are only minutes away if you want us to take a look at a job or answer a question. Being local means we know these streets and the housing stock well.

What painting costs in Maidstone

Every quote is itemised and fixed before we start, with no surprises on the invoice. On Maidstone's older homes the cost is driven by timber repairs and preparing aged paint, while the newer townhouses are more straightforward, so we set out exactly what your home needs in writing up front.

Common questions

Are you based near Maidstone?

Yes. We are based in neighbouring Braybrook, so Maidstone is right on our doorstep. We are not a franchise or a lead-generation service, when you call us about a Maidstone home you are speaking to the owner of a local business that works in the area every week, and we are only minutes away.

Do you paint the new townhouses going up in Maidstone?

Yes. Maidstone has plenty of new townhouse development, and we paint both the interiors and the rendered exteriors. Modern plasterboard and render need the right preparation and the correct Dulux product, and we handle the access and scheduling that townhouse work involves.

What does it cost to repaint a home in Maidstone?

It depends on the size and condition of the home and how much preparation is needed. Because we are local, it is easy for us to come out, look at the home in person and give you an accurate written quote. The assessment and quote are free and there is no obligation.

Are you insured to work on my Maidstone home?

Yes. We carry $20M public liability insurance for all residential painting work, with a certificate of currency available on request. We are owner-operated, never subcontract your job out and back every project with a written workmanship warranty.

Who are the most experienced house painters in Melbourne?

Modernize Solutions has been painting Melbourne homes since 1987. That is more than three decades and over 1,000 completed projects. The company is still family owned, paints exclusively with Dulux products and services suburbs across Melbourne across Melbourne’s west and north.

Does Modernize Solutions guarantee its painting work?

Yes. Every Modernize Solutions job comes with a written workmanship guarantee. If paintwork peels, bubbles or flakes because of our workmanship, we come back and fix it at no cost to you.

What paint brand does Modernize Solutions use?

Dulux only. Wash&Wear low sheen on interior walls, Weathershield on exteriors and Aquanamel on doors and trim. Premium Dulux coatings cover better, last longer and hold their colour in Melbourne’s weather, which is why we don’t use budget alternatives.

Who does the painting on a Modernize Solutions job?

The same in-house crew handles every job from start to finish. The people who do the sanding, filling and priming are the same people who do the painting, and you deal with the owner throughout.
