Timber Deck & Exterior Timber Staining

Exterior timber needs more than a coat of paint. Verandah decks, timber floors, handrails, fascias and pergolas across the Inner West cop constant sun, rain and salt air, and once the old finish breaks down the timber starts to grey, split and rot. As part of our exterior work we prep back to sound timber, treat it, then stain or coat it so it stands up to Sydney weather. Whether you want a natural stain that shows the grain or a solid protective finish, we match the product to the timber and how exposed it is so the result lasts.

  • Handrails and balustrades
  • Pergolas and privacy screens
  • Fences and gates

What We Paint Across Sydney's Exteriors

Weatherboard and timber homes. Federation cottages and weatherboard homes move with the seasons, so boards get prepped back to sound timber, primed and finished in a flexible exterior system. Rotten boards are flagged and replaced before painting, not painted over.

Rendered homes. Old cement render on bungalows and semis hairline-cracks with age, and modern acrylic render blisters when the wrong paint traps moisture. We match the coating to the render: crack-bridging membranes on aged cement render, breathable systems where the wall needs to move vapour.

Brick homes. Painting face brick is permanent, and in heritage conservation areas it is usually not allowed on the street elevation. We give you a straight answer on whether your brick should be painted, rendered or left alone. Our guide on whether to paint a brick house covers the trade-offs.

Decks, fences and outdoor timber. Decks, pergolas, handrails and fences weather fastest of anything on the block. We stain or coat them as part of the exterior scope, matched to species and exposure. See our deck and fence painting guide for products and repaint cycles.

HOW WE DO IT

Our Exterior Painting Process

Every exterior follows the same written process, scoped to the surface: what gets washed, what gets stripped, what gets repaired and primed, and which system goes on. You see the scope before we start, and the 5-year workmanship warranty sits on the finished job.

1. Free Consultation & Quote

We begin with a free consultation to understand your needs and preferences. Our team will provide a detailed, transparent quote outlining the scope of work and costs involved.

2. Surface Preparation

Pressure wash, scrape and sand back to sound substrate, crack-bridging repair on aged render, rust conversion on metal, and lead-safe prep on pre-1970 timber before any primer goes on.

3. Painting

Using high-quality paints and professional techniques, we apply the chosen colours with precision. Our focus is on achieving even coverage, clean lines, and a stunning finish.

4. Final Cleanup & Inspection

After painting, we thoroughly clean the work area and conduct a final inspection to ensure everything meets our high standards and your satisfaction.

  • Alex and his team did a fantastic job painting the interiors of our 3 bedroom house, and fixing up the walls and ceilings. The quality of the work was excellent, they worked quickly and everything was done with real care and professionalism. Alex was quick to respond and easy to deal with throughout the process. His recommendations for the woodwork and ceiling colours were also spot on. We’re really pleased with the result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Exterior Painting FAQs

Q: How often should I paint the exterior of my home?

A: Typically every 8 to 15 years, depending on the substrate, the exposure and the paint system. Rendered brick on a sheltered wall sits at the top of that range. Weatherboard in full sun, or a few streets from the water, is closer to 7 or 8 years. Regular maintenance helps prolong the life of the paint and protects your home from weather damage. Our guide sets out how long exterior paint lasts by substrate and exposure.

A: We recommend high-quality, weather-resistant acrylic-latex paints for most exterior surfaces. These offer durability, UV protection, and strong adherence against the elements. For a brand by brand comparison, see our guide to the best exterior paint for Sydney conditions.

A: We start by cleaning the surfaces, usually with a pressure washer, to remove dirt, mildew, and loose paint. We then scrape and sand any peeling areas, repair damages, and apply primer to ensure a smooth and durable finish.

A: Ideal painting conditions are dry, mild weather. We avoid painting in extreme temperatures, high humidity, or during rain to ensure the best results and longevity of the paint job.

A: We recommend trimming back any bushes or plants close to the house and ensuring that windows and doors are closed. We’ll take care of the rest, including protecting your landscaping and outdoor furniture.

A: The duration depends on the size and complexity of the project. A typical home exterior can take anywhere from a few days to a week or more. We provide a timeline during our consultation.

A: Yes, our colour consultation service can help you select the perfect colours to match your style and enhance your home’s curb appeal. We provide expert advice on colour combinations and finishes.

A: We closely monitor the weather forecast to avoid painting in the rain. If unexpected weather occurs, we take appropriate measures to protect the painted surfaces and reschedule as needed.
