Checklist for Your Aluminium Window Painter – Carrara

If you’re thinking about repainting your aluminium window frames in Carrara, this checklist will guide you through what to look for in a professional, reliable, and experienced window painter. Whether you’re in Emerald Lakes, Boowaggan Road, or on the edge of Nerang, choosing the right contractor makes all the difference.


—

✅ Insurance – It Protects YOU, Not Them

Let’s start with the basics — insurance.

A legitimate tradesperson should carry current public liability insurance that protects your home in the event of an accident. While we take every precaution, life doesn’t always go to plan, and this coverage gives you peace of mind.

At RepaintPro, we’re fully insured and transparent with our credentials — it’s about protecting you and your home.


—

✅ Experience – This Isn’t a Place for Amateurs

Would you trust a “newly trained” painter to spray your aluminium window frames?

We’ve seen companies advertising for franchisees with “no experience required” — that should raise serious concerns. That means someone with no trade background might be practising on your home after a crash course.

RepaintPro is a fourth-generation painting business, with over 100 years of combined trade experience, and more than 30 years of spray painting specifically. Aluminium is not like wood or plasterboard — we understand the substrate, and we’ve fine-tuned our system over decades.

✅ QBCC Licensing – No Licence, No Job

In Queensland, any job over $3,300 requires a QBCC licence. Full stop.

Some contractors try to get clever — issuing multiple small invoices to sneak around the rule. Others use someone else’s licence number. That’s illegal. And if things go wrong, you’re the one left to deal with it.

At RepaintPro, we:

Hold a current QBCC licence

Display it clearly on our quote documents

Are the same people quoting and doing the work


No outsourcing. No licence sharing. Just compliance and professionalism.


—

✅ Proof of Work – Don’t Just Trust Reviews

A five-star review isn’t always a five-star job.

Visual evidence is the best proof you can get. Ask for photos, videos, and walkthroughs of previous jobs — especially for aluminium frames.

At RepaintPro, we share detailed footage of:

Taping and masking

Sanding and surface prep

Spray application

Final results, up close


You’ll find these across our social channels:

Facebook

Instagram

YouTube


And while we respect our clients’ privacy and never share addresses, our work speaks for itself.

✅ Technical Knowledge – Aluminium Needs a System

Aluminium window painting isn’t the same as painting a bedroom wall.

It requires:

Thorough degreasing and sanding

High-adhesion primer for non-ferrous metals

Multiple coats of a durable spray finish

Attention to film thickness (microns) for longevity


Many painters skip primer. Others use the wrong paint altogether.

At RepaintPro, we’ve built a system specifically for Gold Coast aluminium. And we adjust for environmental factors in Carrara — especially around moisture-prone zones like lakeside homes and sun-exposed elevations.


—

✅ Real Business – Not Just a Ute and a Spray Gun

You deserve more than a van with no branding and a handwritten quote.

Check for:

ABN registration

QBCC licensing

Uniformed team

Branded vehicle

A real business website

Active social media with job examples


We tick every box — because we’re not here for quick cash. We’re here to deliver quality service and long-lasting results.


—

✅ Consistency – Finish Matters

It’s not about one perfect job. It’s about repeating that standard across every job.

We pride ourselves on:

Perfect masking lines

Even spray distribution

Crisp, clean finishes

Durable coatings that don’t peel or flake


We don’t rush. We don’t guess. We don’t accept “good enough.”

Whether you’re repainting cream frames to black, silver to white, or giving a federation home a modern facelift, we treat every project with care and detail.


—

✅ Communication – You Shouldn’t Have to Chase

There’s nothing worse than a tradie who doesn’t respond.
