FAQ
What type of paint is best for humid climates like the Tablelands?
In humid regions such as the Tablelands, it’s important to use paints specifically formulated to resist mould, mildew, and moisture. For interior areas like bathrooms or laundries, low-sheen or satin acrylic paints with anti-fungal properties are ideal. For exteriors, weather-resistant acrylic or elastomeric paints offer good protection against sun, rain, and humidity. Choosing breathable, washable finishes helps maintain appearance and reduce maintenance over time. Always read product labels to ensure they’re suited to the local climate, and consider primer coats that add extra moisture protection. Proper surface preparation also plays a key role in achieving a long-lasting finish.
How do I know if my home’s exterior needs repainting?
Signs your exterior needs repainting include fading, flaking, cracking, chalking, or peeling paint. Timber or weatherboard homes on the Tablelands may show wear more quickly due to sun exposure and heavy rain, particularly during the wet season. Other indicators include moisture stains, mildew, or exposed timber. Repainting is not just about appearance — it protects surfaces from the elements and can prevent structural damage. If paint no longer feels smooth or you can rub chalky residue from the walls, it’s time to consider a repaint. Regular inspections every few years can help spot issues early and maintain your home’s condition.
What preparation is needed before painting a home?
Proper preparation is essential for a lasting paint finish. This includes cleaning surfaces, removing loose paint, filling holes or cracks, sanding, and applying primer where needed. In the Tablelands, it’s especially important to address any mould or mildew on surfaces due to the humid conditions. For exteriors, pressure cleaning may be necessary to remove dirt, dust, and residues. Indoors, masking off edges, covering furniture, and ensuring proper ventilation will help protect your space. Skipping prep work can lead to poor adhesion, uneven coverage, or early paint failure. Taking the time to prepare surfaces correctly sets the foundation for a quality result.
