Your deck, fence and driveway take the full force of Melbourne's weather (sun, rain and frost), all year round. We clean, repair, stain, oil and coat outdoor timber and surfaces to bring them back to life and protect them for years. Trusted Melbourne painters for over 15 years.
Finish Painting provides expert deck, fence and driveway painting and restoration across Melbourne, serving Camberwell, Brighton, Hawthorn, Kew, Glen Iris and surrounding suburbs for over 15 years. Outdoor timber and surfaces wear faster than anything else on your property, a deck can go grey and splinter in a couple of seasons, a fence fades and flakes, and a driveway stains and cracks. The good news is that most outdoor surfaces don't need replacing; they need the right cleaning, repair and protective coating. We assess each surface, prepare it properly, and choose the right finish (paint, stain, oil or sealer) to restore its appearance and protect it through Melbourne's harsh seasons. As members of Master Painters Victoria & Tasmania and Dulux Accredited Painters, we complete every project with fully insured, police-checked painters and backed by our written 5-year workmanship warranty.

Outdoor surfaces fail when they're coated over dirt, mould or damage. Our process makes the finish last.
Most homeowners think a weathered, grey, splintering deck is beyond saving and needs replacing. In the vast majority of cases, it doesn't. The timber underneath is sound; it just lost its protective coating and was left exposed to Melbourne's sun and rain. A proper clean, sand and re-coat brings it back to life for a fraction of the cost of replacement. The same is true for tired fences and stained driveways. We restore first, and only recommend replacing what genuinely can't be saved.
From bayside decks that take the salt air to inner-east fences and driveways, we restore and protect outdoor surfaces right across Melbourne's inner east and bayside suburbs.

In many cases, an old grey deck can be restored without replacing it. Grey, dry or weathered timber often means the deck has lost its protective coating, not that the timber is finished. Our deck restoration Melbourne service includes cleaning, stripping, sanding, repairing loose boards and applying the right decking oil, stain or sealer. If any boards are damaged beyond repair, we identify them during inspection and recommend only what genuinely needs replacing.
The best finish depends on your timber type, the look you want and how much maintenance you are comfortable with. Decking oil and stain are often best for natural timber because they enhance the grain and protect the wood from within. Paint or solid coatings may suit fences, pergolas or outdoor structures where you want a uniform colour. Finish Painting can inspect your deck and recommend the right stain, oil or coating for Melbourne weather.
Yes. Colorbond and metal fences can be painted, but they need the correct preparation and primer to help the coating bond properly. We clean the surface, remove contaminants, prepare any problem areas and apply suitable exterior coatings designed for metal surfaces. Our fence painting Melbourne service covers timber paling fences, Colorbond fencing, metal fences and boundary fence refreshes, helping improve street appeal while protecting the surface from weather exposure.
The cost of deck restoration or fence painting in Melbourne depends on the size of the area, condition of the timber or metal, amount of cleaning or sanding required, repair work, access and the type of finish selected. A simple fence repaint will usually cost less than a full deck restoration with stripping, sanding and oiling. Finish Painting offers a free inspection and written quote so you can compare options clearly before starting.
Yes. We provide driveway painting and concrete coating services for stained, faded or weathered concrete surfaces. The process usually includes pressure cleaning, crack repair, surface preparation and application of a hard-wearing driveway coating or sealer. We can also recommend anti-slip finishes, colour refreshes and protective coatings suitable for vehicle traffic, paths, patios and garage floors. Proper preparation is essential for a driveway coating that lasts in Melbourne conditions.
Yes. Finish Painting provides a written 5-year workmanship warranty on eligible outdoor painting and restoration projects. Our outdoor process focuses on proper cleaning, repair, sanding, priming and coating, because most deck, fence and driveway coating failures happen when surfaces are coated over dirt, mould, flaking paint or damage. We are Dulux Accredited, fully insured, police checked and members of Master Painters Victoria & Tasmania.
