Painters Highton

Highton is one of Geelong’s most established family suburbs, and its homes range from 1960s and 70s brick veneers on big blocks to two-storey family homes and newer builds up the hill toward Wandana Heights. Shore Finish paints inside and out across Highton, for families freshening up a lived-in home, people renovating, and owners getting ready to sell.

We’re a local painting and plastering team based just down the road in Geelong West, with over 100 years of combined experience and a 5-star Google rating.

Two-storey home exterior painted by Shore Finish near Highton

What Highton homes usually need

Many Highton exteriors are brick with painted timber eaves, fascias, barge boards, windows and garage doors. These timber areas cop the afternoon sun and weather first, so they’re often where paint starts flaking and timber starts to dry out. A fascia and eaves repaint is one of the most cost-effective ways to lift the street appeal of an older brick home.

Inside, family homes take a beating: scuffed hallways, kids’ rooms, water-marked ceilings and doors that have seen better days. We repair dents and cracks, patch plaster, and use hard-wearing washable finishes in high-traffic areas so the result lasts.

Two-storey and sloping-block homes also need the right access. We organise safe access equipment so high walls, gables and second-storey eaves are painted properly, not just reached.

Highton painting FAQs

Can you just paint the eaves, fascias and trims on my brick home?

Yes. Trim-only exterior jobs are common in Highton and make a big difference. We scrape, sand and prime any bare or weathered timber before applying a durable exterior finish.

Do you work on two-storey homes?

Yes. We regularly paint two-storey and split-level homes and arrange the right access for each job so high areas are prepared and painted properly.

Can you help us choose colours?

Simon has over 25 years in the industry, including work as a colour consultant, and can help you choose a scheme that suits your home and the street.
