Checklist for Your Aluminium Window Painter – Benowa



Benowa homeowners — if you’ve got tired, faded, or dated aluminium windows and doors, this is your go-to checklist before letting anyone near them with a spray gun.

Painting aluminium frames is not the same as painting walls or timber trims. It requires specialty knowledge, the right tools, and proven systems to ensure durability. And in a suburb like Benowa, where property presentation really matters, a poor job isn’t just a waste of money — it drags down the whole look of your home.

Let’s break down what to look for in a professional aluminium window painter.




✅ Insurance – It’s Not Optional

Any tradesperson working on your property in Benowa should be covered by public liability insurance. If they’re not, and something happens — you could be the one left dealing with the consequences.

Accidents are rare, but they do happen. Insurance is what keeps you protected, and any reputable aluminium window painter should provide up-to-date proof of cover before work begins.

RepaintPro is fully insured and happy to show documentation any time.




✅ Experience – More Than Just “Painting”

We’ve seen franchise ads saying: “No experience required!”

That’s scary. Aluminium spray painting isn’t something you learn in a weekend course.

At RepaintPro:

We’ve got over 100 years of family painting experience

More than 30 years dedicated to spray painting

And we’ve worked on every type of aluminium window you can imagine — colonial bars, louvres, triple stacks, sliding doors, bay windows, you name it


Benowa deserves craftsmanship, not guesswork. Your frames only get one shot — let someone with real experience handle it.




✅ Licensing – Legal Requirements for Your Protection

In Queensland, any painting job valued at over $3,300 (which most full-house aluminium window painting jobs are) must be done by someone with a QBCC licence.

Some painters will try to get around this by:

Splitting the quote into smaller chunks

Using someone else’s licence number

Claiming they don’t need a licence at all


It’s illegal — and you’re the one left exposed if something goes wrong.

At RepaintPro, our QBCC licence is valid, current, and listed on everything from our website to our quotes. No smoke and mirrors — just proper, legal work.




✅ Proof of Work – Real Jobs, Real Results

We don’t just talk a big game. We back it up with:

Full job videos

Before and after photos

Spray footage

Up-close images of masking and final finishes

✅ Process Matters – Aluminium Needs a Specific System

This isn’t just roll-on house paint.

Here’s what goes into every Benowa aluminium painting job:

1. Degreasing to strip back oils and contaminants


2. Sanding with appropriate grit to key the surface


3. High-adhesion primer for non-ferrous metals


4. Multiple thin top coats for strong, even film build



Using the wrong primer, skipping sanding, or spraying too thick can ruin your job in a few months. We follow a proven, professional system that’s been used on thousands of Gold Coast homes.




✅ Real Business Credentials

Don’t let someone paint your Benowa home who:

Doesn’t have a proper business name

Has no ABN

Offers no physical address

Isn’t traceable


We’ve been operating as a registered business for decades.

Our van is fully signwritten. Our team wears uniforms. Our quotes are digital, clean, and clear — with all the details you’d expect from a legitimate operator.




✅ Consistency Across Every Frame

It’s not just one or two windows that need to look good — it’s the whole home.

Benowa homes often have a mix of window types — louvres, sliding doors, stackers, colonial trims. We’ve sprayed them all.

At RepaintPro:

We use the same tape masking system every time

Every surface is cleaned and sanded to spec

We spray even, dust-free finishes across every surface


You’ll never see tiger-striping, bubbling, or patchy areas with us. Just smooth, even coats — every time.




✅ Fast and Honest Communication

We don’t ghost you once you send your photos in.

Here’s how you can get in touch:

✅ We’re Not Here to Sell You Anything…

✅ Final Checklist Before You Say Yes

Before hiring anyone to paint your aluminium windows in Benowa, ask yourself:

✅ Are they QBCC licensed?

✅ Do they carry insurance?

✅ Can they show real photos or video proof?

✅ Do they specialise in aluminium?

✅ Are their reviews backed by evidence?

✅ Do they provide a written quote with all legal details?


If the answer to any of those is “no” — keep looking.
