When you’re renovating a home in Burleigh Waters, the goal is almost always the same — to create a space that’s modern, comfortable, and perfectly suited to your lifestyle. You might be knocking out walls for a more open plan, installing new kitchens or bathrooms, upgrading flooring, or refreshing your exterior.

But there’s one feature that is often left until last — or forgotten entirely — and it can have a massive impact on the final look of your home: your aluminium window and door frames.

These frames are more than just functional openings for light and airflow — they’re visual borders for every view inside your home and key architectural elements on the outside. If they’re faded, scratched, or stuck in an outdated colour, they can drag down the appearance of your entire renovation.

The good news? You don’t have to rip them out and replace them. Repainting your aluminium windows during your renovation is the faster, more cost-effective, and far less disruptive option.

Why Renovation Time Is Perfect for Aluminium Frame Repainting

Renovations create a rare window of opportunity. You’re already rearranging spaces, protecting floors, and scheduling trades. Adding aluminium frame repainting at this stage means:

• No extra disruption — we fit in with your existing renovation schedule.
• Huge visual payoff — freshly painted frames can transform both interior and exterior spaces.
• Custom colour control — match your renovation palette exactly.
• Cost savings — repainting is a fraction of the cost of full frame replacement.

In Burleigh Waters, where many homes were built in the ’80s, ’90s, and early 2000s, it’s common to find original frames in mission brown, cream, or other dated colours. Renovating everything else without updating these frames often leaves the home feeling halfway done.

How Old Frames Affect Your Renovation Finish

Imagine installing a brand-new kitchen in a beautiful coastal colour scheme — and then looking across the open-plan space to see faded, powdery aluminium frames that clash completely with your cabinetry and walls.

It’s a subtle but powerful mismatch, and it can:

• Lower perceived value when buyers or guests walk through.
• Break the visual flow of your design choices.
• Make the renovation look incomplete despite your hard work.

By repainting your frames as part of your renovation, you ensure every detail contributes to the same cohesive look.

Our Renovation-Friendly Process for Aluminium Frame Repainting

We’ve fine-tuned our process to work smoothly alongside other renovation trades, so there’s no need to worry about scheduling headaches.

1. Simple Photo-Based Quote

Just send us:

• Clear photos of each frame
• Your desired new colour
• Whether flyscreens/security screens are to be included
• Your Burleigh Waters address

We provide a total price that covers GST and all materials — no hidden extras.

2. Flexible Scheduling Around Other Trades

We liaise with your builder, painter, or project manager to ensure we work at the optimal time — usually after internal painting but before flooring installation.

3. Careful Surface Protection

Before we start, we mask up using green tape, plastic film, and drop sheets to protect your freshly painted walls, cabinetry, and floors.

4. Screen Removal (If Required)

We remove security and flyscreens and spray them separately for a perfect, even finish.

5. Degreasing and Cleaning

Using a specialised wax and grease remover, we thoroughly clean each frame to eliminate contaminants that could cause adhesion problems.

6. Mechanical Sanding

We sand each frame to create a micro-texture that helps the primer grip firmly, ensuring the topcoat lasts.

7. Aluminium-Specific Priming

A high-performance primer designed for aluminium ensures long-lasting adhesion and protection.

8. HVLP Spray Topcoats

We use HVLP spray technology to apply thin, even layers that mimic a factory finish. Multiple coats give depth and durability.

9. Detailing and Reinstallation

Once cured, we remove masking carefully, reinstall screens, and inspect every frame for a flawless result.

Colour Trends for Burleigh Waters Renovations

Homes in Burleigh Waters often blend coastal styling with modern lines. Popular frame colour choices include:

• Gloss Black — adds sharp definition and pairs well with both light and dark palettes.
• Monument — a deep, modern grey that works across a variety of exterior styles.
• Pearl White — bright, crisp, and timeless for beachside-inspired renovations.
• Surfmist — soft and warm, blending beautifully with timber accents.

We can match Dulux, Colorbond, and other brands to your exact renovation vision.

Case Study – Burleigh Waters

A homeowner in Burleigh Waters was transforming their property with a full internal renovation — new bathrooms, kitchen, flooring, and exterior paint. The original frames were cream and badly faded.

We scheduled our work immediately after the internal painting stage. Over several days, we prepped, primed, and sprayed every frame in a modern Monument finish. The result tied the new colour palette together perfectly — from the front façade to the rear entertaining deck.
