Painting Innaloo Homes
Innaloo has changed more than most suburbs around here. The original housing is largely 1950s and 1960s, single-storey brick and tile on generous blocks, and a lot of those blocks have since been subdivided.
The result is a suburb with three quite different types of painting job on the same street:
Original homes: older brick, tile roofs, timber eaves and fascias, and often several layers of paint history on the exterior. These need the most preparation, because what’s underneath is rarely one coating system. We check what we’re dealing with before quoting rather than after.
Villas and duplexes: the infill built through the 1990s and 2000s. Usually render or brick, compact, and often part of a strata group where the common areas and boundary walls need doing at the same time as the units.
Newer two-storey builds: render and lightweight cladding on the recently subdivided blocks. Different substrates again, and generally suited to a membrane system.
Knowing which of the three you’ve got changes the quote considerably, which is why we look before we price.
Working on Subdivided Blocks
This is the practical difference between painting in Innaloo and painting in a suburb with original block sizes.
Subdivided blocks are narrow, and the gap between your wall and the neighbour’s fence is often under a metre. That affects how we access a two-storey exterior, whether scaffolding fits, and how we protect the property next door while spraying.
Shared boundary walls and common driveways add another layer. Where a wall is shared, we’ll flag it before starting rather than assuming, and we protect the neighbour’s side properly whether or not they’re having work done.
None of this is a problem, it just needs planning at quote stage instead of being discovered on day one.
Weather Exposure in Innaloo
Innaloo sits around four kilometres from Scarborough Beach. Not front-line coastal, but the afternoon sea breeze runs straight over it through summer and carries enough salt to shorten the life of a cheap exterior coating.
West-facing walls and west-facing window frames go first, and on the taller infill builds the upper storey takes noticeably more than the ground floor.
Autumn and spring give the best conditions for exterior work. We follow the shade around the building in summer rather than painting a wall that’s too hot for the coating to level properly.
Rental and Pre-Sale Repaints
Innaloo has a high proportion of investment property, helped along by the train station, the shopping centre and easy access to the freeway.
We do a fair amount of turnover work as a result: repaints between tenants, and freshen-ups before a property goes to market. Both want the same things, which is a quick turnaround, a clean neutral finish and no complications.
We can work to a settlement or listing date, and we’ll tell you honestly whether the walls need a full repaint or whether a patch and touch-up gets you there for less. Not every pre-sale job needs the full treatment.
Agents and property managers, we’re happy to quote directly and invoice you.

Two Kilometres Away
We’re closer to Innaloo than to any other suburb we work in.
If something needs a second look after we’ve finished, we’re back the same week.
There’s no travel loading in the quote, and after twenty years working this patch we’ve painted a lot of houses built exactly the way yours is.
FAQ
Do you work on villas and strata properties?
Yes. Individual units, whole villa groups, and common areas including boundary walls, carports and driveways. We can work with a strata manager or committee and provide whatever documentation they need.
Can you do a repaint between tenants?
Yes, and we can work to a fixed date. Tell us the changeover and we’ll plan around it.
My block is narrow and the neighbour’s fence is close. Is that a problem?
No, it’s normal in Innaloo. We’ll check access at quote stage and plan the approach around it, including protecting the neighbouring property.
Do I need to be home?
Not usually for exterior work, provided we have access to everything. Interior work is more flexible than people expect, and we work room by room so the house stays usable.
