The Weatherboard House Painting Restoration Process:

The weatherboards on this property had endured years of harsh weather, leading to significant deterioration. Many boards were in such poor condition that we had to replace them entirely. Starting with the removal of damaged sections, we meticulously installed brand-new boards, ensuring a fresh and resilient foundation.

Window Architraves and Finials:

Beyond weatherboards, we turned our attention to the windows, replacing architraves with new ones and meticulously sanding and preparing the surfaces. The finials, those distinctive peaks on the roof, were replaced to maintain the original aesthetic, showcasing our commitment to authenticity.

Exterior Preparation and Paint Application:

A crucial step in the restoration process involved thorough preparation. We filled gaps, and cracks, and removed flaky paint, ensuring a smooth canvas for the transformation. Applying two coats of exterior low sheen, we enhanced durability and longevity. Our dedication to detail extended to hiring specialized equipment like scaffolds and booms for efficient painting of every inch of the house.

Weatherboard House Painting After Work Results:

The post-restoration results are truly remarkable. From a distance, the house radiates a renewed charm, and up close, the meticulous craftsmanship is evident. The windows now boast a Colorbond Pale Eucalypt, harmonizing with the fresh green of the exterior. The finials, though not identical, add an authentic touch, showcasing our commitment to preserving the home’s character.

Challenges in the Rear:

The rear of the house presented its own set of challenges, with rotten weatherboards, deteriorated veranda posts, and unsightly brown windows. Our team tackled these issues methodically, addressing rot, sanding, and repainting to bring new life to each element.

Thorough Attention to Detail:

Our dedication extended to repairing rather than replacing some weatherboards, using a specially mixed filler for optimal results. Even the fascia required extensive sanding to reveal its bare beauty. Handrails, completely deteriorated, were replaced for safety and aesthetics, completing the overall transformation.

The Final Touch:

The final result is a weatherboard house that stands as a testament to our expertise. The second level is now pristine, with well-painted eaves, fascia, and windows. The green plinth boards complement the overall aesthetic, and the gutters, thanks to their factory-applied Colorbond color, require only a simple wipe-down for a fresh look.
