I would definitely recommend Phi and the Newline Painting team to anyone looking to refresh or transform their space with a beautiful new coat of paint.
The whole process was excellent. From first contact, to quote, to price, to organising a date and time, and the paint job. You can tell these guys care about their work and their customers. Will definitely use again!
They are quality tradesmen, very respectful of our space and left it in great condition at the end of each work day. Great attention to detail.
Each of the team were extremely pleasant to deal with, easy communication including Roi at head office.
Exceptional!
Affordable, very good customer service and the final product was really good

Painting a house in Frankston typically costs between A$4,000 and A$20,000 or more, depending on the size and condition of the home. As a per-square-metre guide, standard interior work runs about A$20 to A$30, detailed work with heavy trim rises to A$60 to A$100, and exterior repainting sits around A$15 to A$60. Frankston is mostly post-war brick veneer and weatherboard, with simpler trim and lower ceilings than period homes, so the figure depends more on surface area, eaves and fascia than on ornate detail. Four things do most of the work on your quote, and our painting cost guide works through three examples in detail.
Frankston quotes stretch further apart than most suburbs, because the homes do: a compact 1960s brick veneer in Karingal and a two-storey bay-view place on Oliver’s Hill are entirely different jobs. A few things set the figure, and our painting cost calculator will put a working number on yours before you talk to anyone.
Surface area & number of coats
Coverage sets the opening number. Much of Frankston is genuinely modest: three-bedroom weatherboards and brick veneers where a full interior repaint is a tight, well-contained job, while Frankston South runs to big split-level family homes on deep blocks that carry two or three times the wall area. We measure every room and elevation and itemise the lot, so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Prep work required
Condition dictates the prep hours. Frankston’s postwar weatherboard is often on its sixth or seventh coat, with flaking edges, weathered sills and lead-era paint underneath that demands safe containment. The 60s and 70s brick veneers usually need less on the walls but more on the timberwork: fascias, eaves and window frames that have quietly gone chalky. On any exterior repaint here, preparation is most of the job, and it is what our 7-year warranty stands on.
Paint product specified
Paint choice shifts the price: Dulux Wash & Wear costs less on the quote than Haymes Ultra-Premium, and for elevations that face the bay’s weather we specify Wattyl Solagard. The system written on your quote is the system we open on site, never a cheaper substitute.
Access & height
Access and exposure finish the picture. A sloping Oliver’s Hill block can need scaffold where a flat Karingal one needs a ladder, and elevations facing the water earn tougher coating systems than the sheltered side of the same house. Timing counts too. A pre-sale repaint booked against an auction date runs a firmer schedule than one that can wait for the weather. We walk the property before we commit a number.
A worked example for a Frankston home
Rate bands are only useful once you put them against a real house. Take a postwar brick veneer or weatherboard home in Frankston, fascia, eaves and window frames facing the bay.

per square metre for exterior work, depending on substrate and access.
indicative range for that house across two coats, before prep condition and access are assessed.
That is a planning figure, not a quote. Preparation condition, colour change, ceiling height and access move it, which is why we measure on site and give you one itemised written price rather than a rate.
What we know about painting in Frankston
Salt air off the bay is what shortens an exterior here
Anything within a kilometre or so of the foreshore, which takes in most streets between Nepean Highway and the beach, carries salt on the walls, and salt trapped under a new coat lifts it. We wash exteriors down properly before we prime, and on the beachside streets we spec a system rated for marine exposure rather than a standard exterior acrylic. It costs a little more up front and it is the difference between a coat that lasts eight years and one that chalks in three.
Steep blocks on Olivers Hill and in Frankston South
The ground climbs sharply south of the town centre. A house on Olivers Hill or in Frankston South often reads as single storey from the street and drops to two levels at the back, with a deck hanging over the slope. We walk the downhill side at the quote and put the scaffold or platform in the price. Deck balustrades and the underside of the eaves get a close look too, because that is where salt and damp sit longest on these houses.
Rentals and between-tenancy turnarounds
Frankston has a deep rental market, busiest around the station and the town centre, and a lot of our work here is between tenancies, where the window is fixed and short. We can quote off a walkthrough, book the crew for the vacant week, and finish so the property is ready for the next inspection. Tell us the handover date at the quote and we will say honestly whether it fits.
Fibro eaves and sheeting on the pre-1990 stock
A lot of Frankston housing went up between the fifties and the eighties, and the eaves and wall sheeting from that era can contain asbestos. We do not sand or cut it. On those homes we clean by hand, seal rather than abrade, and if the sheeting is damaged we tell you before we quote so you can get a licensed removalist in first. That conversation happens at the quote, not halfway through the job.
