Weatherboard house exterior painting in Melbourne by Northern Star Painting

Weatherboard House Painting

Melbourne's weatherboard housing stock needs a specific approach: timber moves, joints open up and coatings crack. Correct preparation, flexible systems and honest repair work.

High-pressure wash and sugar-soap clean to remove chalking and mould
Scrape back all loose, flaking and blistered coatings to a sound edge
Sand back and feather the transition so old edges do not telegraph through

Timber deck staining and fence painting at a Melbourne home by Northern Star Painting

Deck & Fence Painting and Staining

Timber decks, fences, pergolas and screens restored, sanded and coated. Oil, stain or paint — matched to the timber, the exposure and how much maintenance you actually want to do.

Decking oil — penetrates and enriches the grain, easiest to re-coat, needs redoing every 12–24 months
Timber stain — more pigment, better UV protection, longer intervals, still shows the grain
Solid stain — near-opaque colour with timber texture retained, good on tired older decks
