Painters in Sandringham

Modernize Solutions has painted Sandringham homes since 1987, with coastal-rated finishes for its bayside position. Sandringham is bayside living at its most settled, a suburb of Federation and interwar homes, solid brick and weatherboard, on the streets running back from Beach Road and Bay Road. The proximity to the water is the appeal, and it is also the thing that shapes how these homes need to be painted.

Salt air off the bay is hard on exterior paintwork. A finish that lasts a decade inland will not go the distance on a Sandringham home facing the water unless the preparation and the product are right. We use exterior-grade Dulux Weathershield on exposed surfaces, prepare and seal thoroughly, and treat timber and render to suit the coastal conditions.

We have painted bayside Melbourne homes since 1987. More than three decades of experience with Federation timber, interwar brick and the demands of the coast means we know how to get a finish that holds up in Sandringham.

What we paint in Sandringham

Sandringham is bayside, so exterior paintwork here faces salt air that an inland home never sees. The Federation timber and interwar brick each need preparing to suit the coast.

Salt-air exteriors

A finish that lasts inland will not go the distance facing the water. We wash off the salt build-up, prime and seal thoroughly and use Dulux Weathershield on the exposed walls.

Federation timber

The Federation homes back from Beach Road have timber detail that weathers hard near the bay. We repair and prime the bare boards before painting so the finish holds.

Interwar brick

The solid interwar brick homes need the right preparation to take paint properly. We clean down, stabilise and prime the surface before any topcoat goes on.

Render in the weather

Rendered surfaces facing the coast can crack and let moisture in. We fill and seal the render first, then finish with a coastal-rated product so water stays out.

What a paint job costs in Sandringham

Every quote is itemised and fixed before we start, with no surprises on the invoice. A Federation home facing the bay needs more salt-air prep and timber work than a sheltered brick home, so we set all of that out in writing up front.

Common questions

How does being near the bay affect exterior painting in Sandringham?

The salt air off the bay is the main factor. It shortens the life of an exterior finish and exposes any shortcut in the preparation. On Sandringham exteriors we use Dulux Weathershield, prepare the substrate thoroughly and seal edges and joints carefully so the coating stands up to the coastal weather.

Do you paint Federation and interwar homes in Sandringham?

Yes. The Federation and interwar homes around Beach Road and Bay Road are exactly the kind of work we specialise in. They often need timber repairs and careful preparation, and they reward period-appropriate colours. We handle the timber work and can suggest a palette that suits the era and the street.

What does it cost to repaint a Sandringham home?

It depends on the size and condition of the home and how much preparation the exterior needs, which is often more on a coastal home. We come out, assess the home in person and give you a detailed written quote at no cost, so you know exactly what is involved before you commit.

Are you insured to work on my Sandringham 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.
