Painter Clifton Hill – Here we are on day one of this weatherboard repaint project. As you can see, the weatherboard has become quite dull, and it has been a while since it was last given a fresh coat of paint.
The old paint is easily coming off in various areas. This is because the weatherboards were previously covered with plastic vinyl, fake weatherboard, which was supposed to minimize the maintenance required for this home.
When the owners removed the fake weatherboard, they had the opportunity to see the original weatherboards for the first time in a long while. However, since they purchased the home, they haven’t done much to maintain it beyond that.

And now, as the place is being put up for sale, it requires a considerable amount of attention to make it look fresh and clean, repairing any faulty or damaged weatherboards. The goal is to ensure that the new owners can move in without needing to do any additional work.
To achieve this, we sanded and filled all the gaps and cracks, replacing any rotten boards. We also sanded and prepared the front fence. Subsequently, we applied two coats of exterior low sheen paint to all the exterior surfaces, including the facias, gutters, downpipes, window frames, weatherboards, front fence, and deck.
The amount of work put into this place is evident. Within just a couple of days, we have sanded the entire property, from top to bottom, front to back, to give it a fresh and clean look once again.
The owner requested that we paint the home in the same color scheme, so we are proceeding with repainting using black trim and torp weatherboards.
This is the north side, which has been significantly exposed to harsh weather conditions. Consequently, we encountered several rotten boards and numerous cracks that were filled with exterior filler and sanded to achieve a smooth finish. The entire area was then given two coats of paint. However, due to its severely deteriorated state, this section required three coats of paint.
The deck had also been neglected and hadn’t been painted for an extended period. The covered area was in relatively good condition, but the exposed portions, including the steps and balustrading, were worn and rundown.
To address this, we diligently prepared the deck, filling all gaps and cracks with suitable fillers and sanding any rough surfaces. We conducted thorough preparation to ensure that the end result would be truly amazing.
Here we are on the final day after completing all the painting work. The fence has a fresh and attractive appearance with a new coat of black exterior matte paint. As you move around the front of the house, the colors really stand out, giving a sharp and clean look.
There are no visible imperfections; the windows have been repainted, rotten weatherboards have been replaced, and even the garage door received a fresh coat of paint. This facade is what people will see when they come for house inspections.
You can see that the house looks sharp and clean. We painted the front step black to enhance its appearance and cleanliness. The previous concrete paint had peeled and flaked off.
Now, the house looks incredibly sharp and clean. The landscapers also did some work, tidying up the trees and enhancing the beauty of the flowers, making this place truly lovely.

As we go down the side, we can see here that the weatherboards are now looking really sharp and clean on the north side, where it was severely weather-affected. There are no more rotten boards.
We’ve made a massive difference to the backyard by painting the deck and the veranda above all the handrails, the steps of the deck and now the entertainment area is really one that allows for a lovely space for people to hang out and mingle and have a party. So all these repairs have been completed, the house looks really sharp, and now it’s ready to have photos taken and to be placed for sale.
