Professional Exterior Painters in Mount Gravatt

Enhance and Protect Your Home Against the Brisbane Climate

Your home’s exterior does more than just create a first impression; it stands as a vital shield against the intense Queensland sun, torrential summer rains, and salty coastal air. Over time, this constant exposure can lead to fading, cracking, and structural damage that compromises both your home's beauty and its integrity.

At Mount Gravatt Painting Pros, we specialize in exterior painting solutions engineered specifically for Brisbane's unique climate. We go beyond a simple colour refresh to provide a durable, protective barrier that enhances your curb appeal and safeguards your most valuable investment for years to come. In fact, a well-maintained exterior can increase your property's value by up to 10%, making it one of the smartest investments a Brisbane homeowner can make.

Is Your Home Showing These Signs of Wear?

Don't wait for minor damage to become a major repair. If you notice any of the following, it's time to call the pros:

  • Fading & Chalking: The vibrant colour of your paint has faded to a dull hue, or a chalky residue comes off on your hand.
  • Peeling, Cracking, or Bubbling: This indicates paint failure, often due to moisture trapped beneath the surface or inadequate initial preparation.
  • Mould, Mildew, or Algae Growth: Common in shaded, damp areas, these can cause health issues and stain your surfaces.
  • Rust Stains on Roofs or Fascias: A clear sign that your protective coatings are no longer effective.
  • Rotted or Soft Timber: Especially on weatherboards, which indicates water has penetrated the wood.

Ignoring these issues can lead to costly structural repairs. A professional paint job from Mount Gravatt Painting Pros addresses these problems at their root, preventing further deterioration.

Our Precise Exterior Painting Process:


Step 1: Comprehensive Inspection & Wash Down

We start with a thorough inspection of all surfaces—from render and weatherboards to fences and gutters. We then perform a high-pressure or soft wash to remove dirt, grime, chalk, and biological growth, creating a clean canvas.

Step 2: Surface Repair & Preparation

This is where we earn our reputation. We meticulously scrape and sand peeling paint, fill cracks in render, replace any rotted timber, and treat all surfaces with mould-killing solutions. Proper preparation is non-negotiable for a durable finish.

Step 3: Expert Primer & Caulking Application

We apply specialist primers to bare timber, metal, and repaired areas to ensure optimal adhesion and prevent stains from bleeding through. All gaps and joints are sealed with high-grade, flexible caulking to lock out moisture.

Step 4: Skilled Paint Application with Durable Paints

Our craftsmen use brushes, rollers, and sprayers to apply premium, 100% acrylic paints specifically formulated for Australian conditions. These paints offer superior UV resistance and flexibility to expand and contract with your home’s materials.

Expertise in All Exterior Building Materials

A successful paint job starts with knowing your surface. We possess specific expertise for every common Brisbane exterior:

  • Painted Render: We expertly repair hairline cracks and use vapour-permeable (breathable) paint systems to prevent moisture trapping and blistering—a common cause of paint failure on render.
  • Brick & Blockwork: We perform crucial efflorescence removal (the white, salty powder) and use specialised masonry paints that allow the surface to breathe while providing a durable, colour-fast finish.
  • Timber Weatherboards: Our meticulous preparation involves scraping, sanding, and knot-sealing, followed by premium primers and topcoats that flex with the wood to prevent cracking and peeling.
  • Fibro & HardiePlank: We ensure all joints are properly caulked and sealed with flexible compounds to handle thermal expansion and prevent water ingress.

Your Exterior Painting Questions, Answered

  • How long does an average exterior paint job last in Brisbane?

    With high-quality paint and professional application, your exterior paint should last 7-10 years. However, surfaces with high sun exposure may need refreshing sooner.

  • Are you licensed and insured for exterior work?

    Yes. We are fully licensed, insured, and experienced in working at heights, giving you complete peace of mind while we work on your property.

  • How long will it take to paint the exterior of my house?

    For a typical single-story home, the project usually takes 5-7 days, depending on the size, condition, and weather. We manage the timeline efficiently to minimise disruption.

  • Can you paint in wet weather?

    For the best results, painting should be done in dry conditions. We monitor the forecast closely and will schedule work around rain to ensure the paint cures properly.

  • What is the difference between a water-based and oil-based exterior paint, and which is better?

    Modern 100% acrylic water-based paints are generally superior for Brisbane's climate. They are more flexible (resisting cracking), have better colour retention against UV rays, are low-odour, and are easier to clean up. We use premium acrylics for their proven durability and performance.

  • My house has render. What specific preparation is needed to prevent cracking and moisture issues?

    Rendered homes require specific expertise. We carefully inspect for any hairline or structural cracks, which we then rake out, fill with a flexible elastomeric compound, and seal. A key step is applying a breathable, vapour-permeable primer and topcoat system. This allows trapped moisture within the render to escape without blistering the paint, while still repelling rain—a crucial process for long-term protection.
