The brief
The owners wanted to restore the character of an older weatherboard home. The existing paint showed extensive cracking and flaking, and deteriorated timber required attention before the finish coats.
Assessing the existing paint
Adhesion checks helped identify sound existing paint and the areas where failing layers needed removal. This preparation shaped the repainting scope, giving the new finish a suitable surface while retaining the home’s character details.
Timber and surface preparation
Weatherboards, window sills and trim needed attention before priming and painting. On a character home, these small details influence the finished appearance. Deteriorated timber also needs a repair assessment appropriate to its condition and function.
The finished appearance
The finished photographs show refreshed weatherboards and contrasting trim around the home’s character details. When planning a similar villa repaint, agree the colours and sheen for the cladding, joinery and any deck surfaces separately.
Project photographs
For older homes, suspected lead paint and asbestos materials need assessment before sanding, scraping or washing. Preparation methods must suit the identified material.
