We needed a full interior repaint before selling and took a chance on Melbourne City Maintenance after reading a few reviews — so glad we did. Raph, John, and AJ were incredibly punctual, professional, and easy to work with from the first call to the final coat. Raph explained everything clearly and gave advice that led to results beyond our expectations. We’ll definitely be calling them again!

People Love Our Work and That
We Follow Up Months Later

A friend found reviews of this company on a neighbourhood website so I included MCM in my list when I sought quotes for repairing and painting weatherboards on my house.

I chose Bill’s company on the basis of a competitive quote but mainly because of his communication which was engaging and informative. Bill and his term worked hard, keeping us in the loop every step of the way. He also helped us find other good tradespeople to fix other problems that came to light. We’re happy with the results but more importantly, we were happy with the whole process of getting the work done. I highly recommend Bill and his team from MCM.

I’d recommend Bill and his team for any painting job. My landlord was very happy with the quality of the job. Bill is attentive, reliable and provides good value for money.

We sought Bill and his teams services to complete maintenance work for our house in readiness for sale. From the outset Bill was responsive, professional and

understood our needs. In trying times with a snap 5 day lockdown across Melbourne he managed to rearrange the schedule including his sub-contractors to complete the job on time. All in all a very positive experience – quality work and advice done with a smile. Highly recommend. Thanks Bill and team.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a home be repainted outside in Melbourne?

Most Melbourne homes need repainting every 7–10 years, depending on sun exposure, weather conditions, and the quality of previous work. West-facing walls or coastal homes may need attention sooner due to harsher UV exposure.

How do I know when it’s time to repaint my exterior?

If you see flaking paint, fading colour, or exposed timber, your home is ready for repainting. Early maintenance prevents rot, water damage, and costly structural issues down the track.

Do you repair surfaces before painting?

Yes — surface preparation is everything. We repair damaged weatherboards, fill cracks, sand, gap, and prime surfaces to ensure a smooth, long-lasting finish. Proper prep is what makes our work last through Melbourne’s unpredictable weather.

What paint brands do you use?

We primarily use Dulux and Haymes premium exterior paints — both trusted for durability, UV resistance, and flexibility in Melbourne’s climate. We choose the right paint system for each surface and exposure level.

Do you provide colour consultations?

Yes — we can help you choose colours that complement your home’s style, street appeal, and lighting. We use real-world samples and can match existing colours or suggest modern updates that suit Melbourne’s character homes.

How long does exterior painting usually take?

A typical full-house repaint takes 15–20 days, depending on weather and surface condition. We plan around Melbourne’s changing forecasts to minimise downtime and ensure consistent quality.

Can you paint while tenants are living in the property?

Yes — we regularly paint tenanted properties for owners, managers, and body corporates. We coordinate notice periods, quiet hours, and access times to keep residents happy and avoid disruption.

Do you handle high or hard-to-reach areas?

Yes — our painters are licensed for high-risk work and operate safely using scissor lifts, EWPs, harness systems, and scaffolding. We also arrange traffic management and council permits when required.

Can you paint over old or flaking paint?

Not without proper prep. We remove loose paint, sand the surface, and apply primers before any topcoat. Skipping this step is why many repaints fail within a few years — we never cut corners.

Do you provide exterior painting for commercial or strata buildings?

Absolutely. We paint homes, apartment complexes, retail spaces, and offices. Our team coordinates with property managers and body corporates for multi-day or staged projects with clear timelines and communication.

What’s included in your exterior painting service?

Our full-service package includes cleaning, sanding, repairs, gapping, priming, painting, and a final site cleanup. You’ll receive a detailed scope of work and a transparent, itemised quote before we begin.

Can you match heritage colours for period homes?

Yes — we’re experienced in painting Federation, Edwardian, and Victorian homes across inner Melbourne. We follow heritage guidelines and can replicate classic paint schemes while ensuring a durable modern finish.

How do you protect gardens, windows, and paths during painting?

We cover all plants, windows, decks, and driveways with drop sheets and plastic protection. Our painters are meticulous about cleanliness — we leave your home spotless at the end of each day.

Do you offer any warranty or post-job support?

Yes — every exterior project includes our 3-Month Check-In. Three months after completion, we’ll follow up to ensure everything still looks perfect. Paint should last years, not just months — and we stand by that.

How can I extend the life of my exterior paint job?

Wash down walls annually, trim back plants, and fix leaks early. Keep an eye on west-facing areas and touch up minor chips quickly. We can also schedule periodic maintenance checks to keep your home looking freshly painted.
