Exterior painting services on the Bellarine Peninsula for a heritage home in Queenscliff

Exterior painting services on the Bellarine Peninsula helped transform this two-storey home in Queenscliff, giving its weatherboards and cedar windows a fresh, durable finish while retaining the property’s distinctive character. Seaview Painting Services completed the detailed exterior repaint using careful surface preparation, specialised access equipment and premium Dulux coatings selected for lasting performance.

The client wanted the previously stained cedar windows converted to a painted finish and the existing yellow exterior refreshed with a custom colour match. The completed before-and-after transformation gives the home a cleaner, more consistent appearance while maintaining a colour scheme that suits its traditional architectural style.

Exterior house painters on the Bellarine Peninsula with the right equipment

Due to the height and design of the two-storey property, a boom lift was required to safely reach the upper-level windows, weatherboards, gables and exterior trim. This specialised access equipment allowed our painters to complete the preparation and coating process efficiently while maintaining a consistently high standard across every part of the exterior.

Using a boom lift was particularly important around the enclosed upper storey, where safe access from ground level would not have been practical. It also helped our team inspect the elevated surfaces closely, address imperfections and apply each coat evenly.

Preparing and painting the stained cedar windows

The cedar window frames had previously been finished with stain, but the client wanted them changed to a painted surface. Converting stained timber requires the right preparation and coating system to support adhesion and create a smooth, durable result.

After preparing the cedar, our team applied an oil-based undercoat to seal the timber and provide a suitable foundation for the new colour. The windows then received three coats of Dulux Deep Brunswick Green. This rich shade creates a strong contrast against the lighter weatherboards and highlights the home’s window details.

Custom colour matching and weatherboard preparation

The existing yellow was custom matched so the refreshed exterior would remain consistent with the home’s established character. Before painting, the weatherboards and associated surfaces were thoroughly sanded, filled and gapped. This preparation helped smooth uneven areas, address visible imperfections and close joints where required.

Once the preparation was complete, three coats of Dulux All Weather Gloss were applied. The coating system created an even, polished finish while providing durable exterior protection suited to the changing conditions experienced around Queenscliff and the Bellarine Peninsula.
