When you’re mid-renovation in Varsity Lakes, it’s easy to focus on the big, obvious upgrades — a new kitchen, fresh flooring, maybe even knocking out walls for a more open layout. But one of the most visually dominant features of your home can quietly get overlooked: your aluminium window and door frames.

They’re in nearly every room, forming the border to your view, and they’re just as visible from the street as they are from inside. If those frames are still stuck in a faded, outdated colour, they can clash badly with your beautiful new finishes.

The good news? You don’t have to replace them to get a fresh, modern look. Repainting your aluminium frames can completely transform them — at a fraction of the cost of replacement and with far less disruption to your renovation timeline.

Why Varsity Lakes Renovators Are Choosing to Repaint, Not Replace

If you’ve priced new frames during your reno, you’ll know they can blow the budget. Repainting offers renovators a way to:

• Save thousands compared to replacement
• Match any new colour scheme you’re creating in your renovation
• Avoid construction mess from removing and reinstalling frames
• Get a factory-smooth finish using HVLP spray technology
• Extend the life of your current frames without compromising on style

For many Varsity Lakes homeowners, repainting is the missing piece that makes a renovation feel truly complete.

The Problem With Leaving Old Frames During a Renovation

Even the best renovations can feel unfinished if the frames are:

• Still in dated colours like mission brown or primrose
• Scratched, faded, or chalky from sun exposure
• Contrasting awkwardly with your updated walls and finishes
• Highlighted in real estate photos for the wrong reasons

Think of them like the trim on a classic car — if it’s worn or mismatched, the whole vehicle looks older.

Our Aluminium Window Painting Process for Renovations

Renovations in Varsity Lakes often run on tight schedules, with multiple trades coming and going. Our process is designed to fit smoothly into your project without delays.

1. Renovation-Friendly Quoting

You send us:

• Photos of your frames
• Your colour choice
• Whether security/flyscreens are included
• Your location in Varsity Lakes

We respond with a total price including GST and materials — no guesswork.

2. Scheduling to Suit Your Build

We liaise with you or your builder to work in the right phase of your project — often after plastering and before final flooring or painting.

3. Site Protection

Renovations can be messy, but our part isn’t. We mask all surrounding areas with tape, film, and drop sheets to keep overspray off your new finishes.

4. Security Screen Handling

If included in your quote, we remove and spray screens separately for a perfect match — never spraying over mesh. If excluded, we mask them off.

5. Cleaning for Maximum Adhesion

We use wax and grease remover to strip away dust, oils, and contaminants, ensuring the primer bonds properly.

6. Sanding Every Frame

Mechanical sanding creates a surface profile that helps the primer lock in, preventing peeling or chipping down the line.

7. Aluminium-Specific Primer

We spray a dedicated primer formulated for aluminium, giving your topcoats the perfect foundation.

8. HVLP Topcoating

Using multiple fine coats, we build up a smooth, even finish that rivals new factory-coated frames.

9. Detailing and Reassembly

Once the paint has cured, we carefully remove all masking, reinstall screens, and inspect every edge for a sharp, professional result.

Colour Options to Match Your Renovation

One of the best parts of repainting during a reno is total colour freedom. Popular Varsity Lakes renovation colours include:

• Gloss Black for dramatic contrast
• Monument for a bold, modern edge
• Pearl White for a bright, coastal vibe
• Surfmist for soft, neutral elegance

We can colour match to Dulux, Colorbond, or custom shades so your frames work perfectly with your new build palette.

Renovation Case Study – Varsity Lakes

A client renovating a waterfront property in Varsity Lakes had replaced flooring, upgraded the kitchen, and repainted the walls — but the old cream frames clashed badly with their fresh white-and-charcoal theme.

We worked in a two-day window between their painter and flooring installer. The frames were transformed to Monument, giving a sleek, architectural edge that tied the whole renovation together.
