Access is the third lever. Three-level townhouses on the waterfront call for an elevated platform, and strata buildings need the owners corporation’s approval before an apartment repaint can start; a cottage sitting hard on the front boundary needs careful footpath protection, and shopfronts on the village strip trade around opening hours. We price the setup before we begin, so nothing changes later.

Why choose us
Why Port Melbourne Homeowners Choose Newline Painting
Our Services
House painting services we offer
Interior Painting
From the arched hallways and deep skirtings of Port Melbourne’s terraces to the tall open volumes of its warehouse conversions: ceilings, walls, trims and sashes finished in low-VOC paints, with dust contained and furniture under cover throughout.
Book Interior Painting
Exterior Painting
Render, weatherboard and brick that live with real bay weather. We strip and prime properly, work lead-safe on pre-1970 buildings, and spec Wattyl Solagard or Dulux Weathershield where the wind off the piers demands it.
Book Exterior Painting
Pre-Sale House Painting
Pre-sale repaints scheduled backwards from your campaign, photography first, then auction day and settlement in view, so a Port Melbourne cottage or townhouse hits the market looking its sharpest.
Book Pre-Sale House Painting
Apartment Painting
Beacon Cove facades, common property and apartment interiors handled with the owners corporation in the loop: committee-friendly quotes, insurance certificates and access plans included.
Book Apartment Painting
Feature Wall Painting
A single feature wall, chosen well, changes how a room feels. We pick the shade against the light your Port Melbourne home actually gets and the palette already in it.
Book Feature Wall Painting
Epoxy Painting
Epoxy floor coatings for Port Melbourne garages, basements and workshops: a dense, glossy coating that takes tyres, dropped tools and spills without marking.

What Changes the Price of a Port Melbourne Painting Quote
There’s no flat rate for painting in Port Melbourne: a single-fronted cottage off Bay Street and a three-level render townhouse by the water are entirely different jobs. Three variables do the real work on price, and our paint cost calculator can sketch the figure before we ever visit.
01
Surface area & number of coats
Scope drives the price first. A double-fronted Victorian terrace on Rouse Street holds high ceilings, deep skirtings and arched hallways; a warehouse conversion is mostly tall open volume; a two-bedroom cottage is a tighter, faster interior repaint. We quote the surface that actually gets painted, not the floor plan.
02
Prep work required
Condition is next, and this close to the water, preparation is most of the job. Wind straight off Hobsons Bay strips the sheen from front-line paintwork years early, older cottages and terraces need lead-safe methods, and Beacon Cove’s 1990s render is now deep into its first repaint cycle. On an exterior repaint, stripping failed coatings and re-priming bare render or timber is often the biggest line on the quote, and the one that decides how many summers the finish survives.
03
Paint product specified
Your paint selection shifts the total as well: Haymes Ultra-Premium costs more than Dulux Wash & Wear, and bay-facing Port Melbourne elevations are specced with Wattyl Solagard. The products named on the quote are the products we open on site.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Phi, Edward, and the Newline Painting team on one of our projects. From the very start, communication was smooth and professional. Their attention to detail, efficiency, and high-quality work made the entire process seamless. We look forward to collaborating with them again on future projects.

Last week, Newline Painting completed exterior house painting for us, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the owner, Phi, and manager, Edward, to the three team members, everyone worked together seamlessly to ensure the job was done smoothly. Our house now looks refreshed and vibrant. We highly recommend the Newline Painting team and sincerely thank them for their hard work and exceptional service—it is truly appreciated.

Phi is great to deal with, he was very generous with his time and ran me through the entire painting process and what to expect. Can't recommend him or the Newline team highly enough

From start to finish, from booking to project complete, Newline did an awsome job. Selling a property is stressful enough and they certainly took the worry out of presenting the property in top condition. Not only the painting, but small cracks or a loose piece of skirting was instantly fixed. Couldn't believe it was the same property when they had finished. 6 stars if I could.

Thank you for the great job painting our house in Camberwell for sale before Christmas! Really appreciate the work your team did expertly for our bathroom, living room, bedrooms and the external house walls. Your team was efficient and friendly. We are very happy as it added at least $200,000 to the final house sale price.

I had a great experience with the Newline painting team. They offered a competitive price to repaint the interior of my apartment and were able to accommodate my tight timeline (they started 1 day after the quote was given) and still delivered high-quality work. Communication was smooth and professional from start to finish. I’m really happy with the result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

All Newline Painting staff, Edward and his team were phenomenal. We needed to wait for another contractor to finish before starting the painting of the front facade of our house and despite a moving timeline, the NP team were quick to respond, courteous and were ready as soon as we were. The painting job is fantastic - the painters' attention to detail, thoroughness and efficiency was second to none. I'm very glad we went with NP as they're solution oriented and easy to work with. We'll definitely be hiring them again soon.

Great communication from Ray, who’s even been following up with my queries in evening and weekend. The job was done quickly from very experienced professionals. There are three people working on the job together to get it done quickly. Would certainly recommend Newline painting to others.

Big thanks to the Newline Painting team for the work on my outdoor walls. After Ed and the team finished the painting, I was so happy with the results and how great it looked compared to what it previously was. Highly recommend.

Ed and his team at Newline Painting did an outstanding job on repainting the interior of my home in South Melbourne! They were swift, tidy and professional throughout the entire project —5 stars wouldn’t be enough to rate their work. They weren't the cheapest quote we got but they definitely kept their promise on timeline, professionalism and their quality of work. Keep up the great work, guys! Highly recommend Newline Painting!

Local Know-How
What We Know About Painting in Port Melbourne
Station Pier, Port Melbourne · Donaldytong, CC BY-SA 3.0 / Wikimedia
How Port Phillip heritage overlays affect a repaint
City of Port Phillip overlays sit across much of old Port Melbourne: the workers’ cottage and terrace precincts around Rouse, Ross and Graham Streets, the Bay Street streetscape and the interwar Garden City estate, whose Bank House weatherboards are protected as a group. Repainting itself is rarely the problem; council approval generally only enters the picture when a contributory facade changes colour scheme. Before the quote is finalised, we sit the overlay map next to your plans and confirm what applies.
Lead-safe work on cottages, terraces and interwar homes
Port Melbourne’s housing runs from pre-1900 port workers’ cottages through Victorian terraces to Garden City’s interwar estate, and nearly all of it hides lead-based paint under the later coats. Testing comes first, then containment: wet-sanding behind sheeting, HEPA vacuums for the clean-down, and waste disposed of by the book. Dry-sanding old paintwork, the shortcut that sends lead dust through a house, is never on the table.

Marine exposure: what the bay does to front-line paintwork
Port Melbourne is genuinely on the water, and the wind that funnels in past Station Pier and Princes Pier carries salt well up the beachfront streets. Front-line render and timber weather on a shorter cycle here, so we specify marine-grade preparation and premium exterior systems, Wattyl Solagard or Dulux Weathershield on exposed elevations, and we tell you honestly which faces of the building earn them and which don’t.
Beacon Cove render and warehouse conversions
Two jobs define modern Port Melbourne. Beacon Cove’s master-planned townhouses are approaching thirty years old, and their acrylic render now needs staged recoating at estate scale: quotes drafted so a committee can sign off, certificates of currency attached, and staging that respects residents’ access. Inside the suburb’s converted industrial buildings, we paint tall volumes, exposed trusses and original brick reveals without losing the character that made the conversion worth buying.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you service Port Melbourne?
Yes. Newline Painting services Port Melbourne (3207) and the wider City of Port Phillip, within our roughly 30km Melbourne coverage. Call 1300 044 206 to confirm availability for your street.
Do you paint Beacon Cove townhouses?
Yes. Beacon Cove’s 1990s render townhouses are now deep into their first repaint cycle, and we take them on at single-home or whole-building scale, with quotes written for committee sign-off and staging the owners corporation can approve.
How does being on the bay affect an exterior repaint in Port Melbourne?
Marine exposure shortens coating life on front-line elevations. Wind off Hobsons Bay carries salt past the piers and up the beachfront streets, so exposed render and timber need marine-grade preparation and premium systems such as Wattyl Solagard. We specify for that exposure as standard.
Do you paint Port Melbourne’s workers’ cottages and Victorian terraces?
Yes. The cottage and terrace streets around Rouse, Ross and Graham Streets are core work for us: arched hallways, deep skirtings, timber sashes and tuckpointed or rendered facades, painted with the right preparation for their age.
Do you handle lead paint in older Port Melbourne homes?
Yes. Pre-1900 cottages through to Garden City’s interwar homes almost all hide lead-based paint under later coats. Testing comes first, then containment: wet-sanding behind sheeting, HEPA clean-down and disposal by the book. We never dry-sand old paintwork.
My home is in a heritage overlay. Can I still repaint it?
Yes. Port Phillip overlays cover the cottage and terrace precincts, Bay Street and the Garden City estate, but repainting itself is rarely the problem. Approval generally only matters if a contributory facade changes colour scheme. We check the overlay with you first.
Can you paint converted warehouse interiors?
Yes. Port Melbourne’s industrial conversions are a specialty: tall volumes, exposed trusses, steel windows and original brick reveals, with access equipment for high ceilings and finishes that keep the industrial character intact.
Do you offer pre-sale painting in Port Melbourne?
Yes. We schedule pre-sale repaints backwards from your campaign, photography first, then auction and settlement, so a cottage, conversion or townhouse hits the market looking its sharpest.
Do you provide a workmanship guarantee?
Yes. Workmanship on every Port Melbourne job is guaranteed in writing for seven years, and each crew is covered by $20 million in public liability insurance.
Who do I contact for a Port Melbourne painting quote?
Use the online quote tool or call 1300 044 206. For bay-facing exteriors and period homes we recommend an onsite inspection for an exact figure, and dates are locked in as soon as you approve.

7-Year Warranty
Every finish leaves with a documented 7-year workmanship guarantee, still ours to stand behind long after the scaffold has come down and the bay has tested it.
$20M Insurance
Public liability protection of $20 million on every site, certificate of currency issued before day one. Paperwork is sorted before a ladder touches a Beacon Cove wall.
Reliable Scheduling
A start date that holds. We build the schedule around curing weather near the water and put the date in writing, so your job begins when we said it would.
