This home on Hawthorn Grove isn’t just another project. It’s a story of craftsmanship, continuity, and long-term trust. More than 25 years ago, our team completed the original paintwork. When it came time for a full exterior repaint, the homeowner came straight back to us.
That kind of trust doesn’t happen overnight. It’s earned through years of reliable service and quality workmanship, and it lasts.
The homeowner knew exactly who they wanted for this exterior repainting in Hawthorn — a team that had worked on the home before, understood its unique features, and had grown with the craft. With decades of experience in house painting across Melbourne, our painters brought not just technical expertise but a deep familiarity with the property. It was a proud return to refresh the same home for the same owner, decades after the first job.
This was a full exterior project that required careful coordination and precision across a variety of surfaces:
As with all of our exterior work, preparation was key, each surface was cleaned, patched, and primed to ensure the finish would hold up over time.
For this exterior repaint, the homeowner chose Monument — a bold, contemporary grey from the Colorbond® range. Its deep tone provided a striking contrast against the lighter trims and surrounding garden, delivering a modern look that still complemented the home’s original architecture.
Monument is a popular choice for Melbourne homes, offering a balance of boldness and subtlety. It’s ideal for heritage repainting projects where the goal is to modernise without erasing character.
This colour selection elevated the home’s curb appeal while maintaining its timeless charm — a thoughtful blend of old and new.
Painting older homes in suburbs like Hawthorn requires more than just fresh paint — it demands experience, patience, and respect for the original architecture. Our team knew how to treat each surface correctly, preserve the intricate steel fretwork, and apply a finish that would stand the test of time.
With every brushstroke, we focused on delivering a clean, consistent result. The final finish reflects the kind of craftsmanship Newline Painting brings to every heritage home repaint across Melbourne.

For the homeowner, it brought peace of mind — knowing the exterior repaint was handled by trusted, experienced painters.
