Weatherboard, fibro and timber exteriors in One Tree Hill

Older weatherboard and fibro homes in One Tree Hill take patient preparation. Weatherboards are scraped back to a firm edge, sanded so old edges do not show through, and primed on bare timber before two coats of flexible acrylic are brushed into every lap. Rotten boards, sills and fascias are cut out and replaced. Homes built before 1970 are likely to have lead paint in the old layers, so sound paint is left in place and overcoated, and any removal is done wet, with containment, never dry sanded or burnt off.

Fibro sheeting on pre-1990 homes is never sanded or water blasted. SA Painting Professionals cleans it gently by hand and paints it while intact, which is both safe and effective. Light colours are recommended on weatherboard and steel because dark colours run much hotter in the South Australian sun and shorten the life of the paint and the timber underneath it. Timber windows and fretwork are finished in exterior enamel over a proper primer.

Local knowledge

Painting homes and businesses in One Tree Hill

Stone villas, bungalows and cottages in One Tree Hill were built with lime mortar, solid masonry and timber that all need to breathe. A painter who knows South Australian housing eras recognises which walls should stay bare stone, which render is original, and where a modern acrylic will trap moisture and blister. SA Painting Professionals chooses breathable coatings on old masonry and works with the fabric of the house rather than against it.

Gawler, Willaston and Gawler South keep a strong 1800s core of stone cottages, villas and two-storey shopfronts with lime mortar and iron lace. Salisbury itself has an 1840s township core of stone buildings. Salisbury North, Elizabeth, Elizabeth Vale and Davoren Park were laid out by the Housing Trust from the 1950s: modest double brick homes, semi-detached pairs and some fibro-clad houses, many now privately owned and extended. Parafield Gardens, Brahma Lodge and Salisbury Downs are 1970s brick veneer; Paralowie, Craigmore, Hillbank and Salisbury Heights came through the 1980s and 1990s. Munno Para West, Andrews Farm, Blakeview, Smithfield and Evanston Gardens are estate land from the 2000s on, in render, Hebel and Colorbond. Angle Vale, Virginia, Lewiston and Two Wells mix acreage homes with farmhouses, glasshouses and packing sheds, while St Kilda and Thompson Beach are shack and transportable-home settlements.

Roof restoration on older One Tree Hill homes

Terracotta, cement and corrugated metal roofs on older homes in One Tree Hill take the full force of the sun and the wind. SA Painting Professionals pressure cleans off moss, lichen and chalk, replaces broken pieces and rebeds ridge capping where needed, treats rust on metal, then applies a primer and two coats of flexible roof membrane. A lighter, heat-reflective colour lowers the temperature of the rooms below in summer. Gutters, fascias and valleys are done at the same time so the whole roofline is sound.

Repainting an older family home in One Tree Hill

Older homes in One Tree Hill usually have several generations of paint on the walls, cracked cornices, filled picture-hook holes and trims that were last done in oil-based enamel. SA Painting Professionals washes down, sands back gloss, fills and caulks properly, and primes bare or patched areas before the colour coats go on. Ceilings are checked for stains and sealed where needed. Where a house was built before 1970, we treat the old layers as likely to contain lead and leave sound paint in place, overcoating rather than stripping.

Things we consider in Adelaide's Northern Suburbs

  • Housing Trust homes, fibro and lead

    Much of Elizabeth, Davoren Park and Salisbury North was built before 1970, so original paint on timber, eaves and steel windows is likely to contain lead, and some homes and sleep-outs are clad in fibro sheeting. We keep sound paint in place and overcoat it, wet sand or strip loose areas under containment, and never dry sand or burn old paint, as set out in AS/NZS 4361.2:2017. Fibro is washed by hand and painted intact; we do not sand or water-blast it.

  • Plains heat, dust and wind

    Angle Vale, Virginia, Two Wells and Mallala are open, flat and exposed. Summer days regularly pass 35°C, north winds carry dust off the paddocks, and there is little shade. Exterior paint needs a UV-resistant 100% acrylic topcoat, lighter colours on Colorbond sheds and roofs, and a proper wash to get grit off before priming. We start early in summer, follow the shade around the house, and do not apply water-based paint in hot wind, when it skins before it can level.

FAQ

Painting questions from One Tree Hill

Builders and developers working in One Tree Hill can send plans and specifications to SA Painting Professionals for a paint package quote. We price from the drawings, work to your program and keep the paperwork clean.

Do you travel to One Tree Hill for painting jobs?
Yes. SA Painting Professionals is based in Adelaide and services all of South Australia. One Tree Hill is 20 to 50 minutes north of the CBD, and we cover it as part of our normal service area. We quote on site across metro Adelaide and travel further afield for both small and large jobs. Any travel for regional work is discussed up front and shown on the written quote rather than added later.
Can you work around farm or business hours in One Tree Hill?
We can. Sheds, shopfronts, pubs, clinics and farm buildings in One Tree Hill are painted around the hours you keep, whether that means early starts, evenings, weekends or fitting between seasonal work. Low-odour water-based paints let a premises open the next morning, and structural steel and machinery are coated with systems chosen for corrosion and heavy use. The program is agreed in writing before the crew leaves Adelaide.
Do you paint older rental properties and holiday houses in One Tree Hill?
Yes. Landlords and owners of holiday houses in One Tree Hill often cannot be on site, so we quote from photos, arrange keys with a property manager or neighbour, photograph the work as it progresses and again at completion, and send an itemised invoice that matches the quote. Regional rentals are grouped with other work in the district so the job is finished in a single visit.
Our Elizabeth home is an original Housing Trust house. Is it safe to repaint?
Yes, provided the old paint and any fibro sheeting are handled correctly. Homes built before 1970 are likely to have lead paint under later coats, so we leave sound paint undisturbed, overcoat it, and remove loose paint by wet sanding or chemical stripping with containment, never dry sanding or burning. Fibro cladding is washed gently and painted while intact, not sanded or water-blasted. This is standard practice for us across Elizabeth, Davoren Park and Salisbury North, and it is set out in AS/NZS 4361.2:2017.
Do you supply the paint or can I choose my own colours?
We supply trade-quality paint from the major Australian brands and help you choose colours, or we can work to a colour scheme you have already picked. Either way the products are itemised on your quote.
Do you service One Tree Hill?
Yes. SA Painting Professionals is Adelaide based and services One Tree Hill (SA 5114) along with every suburb and town in Adelaide's Northern Suburbs. Quotes are free whether we measure up on site or work from your photos.
