Painting in Pagewood

Pagewood is a family-oriented suburb with large blocks and a strong knockdown-rebuild market. Nearly half the suburb is parkland, giving it a green, spacious feel that's unusual for the Eastern Suburbs. The original 1950s and 1960s housing stock is steadily being replaced by larger double-storey family homes, which creates a constant flow of new-build painting work. For older homes that aren't being demolished, a full exterior and interior repaint can change the property completely. It is often the most cost-effective way to modernise before deciding whether to renovate or rebuild. Just five minutes from Maroubra Beach but relatively sheltered from direct salt air.

What does painting a house in Pagewood involve?

Pagewood began in 1919 as the Monash Gardens estate, and its northern streets still follow the Daceyville garden suburb plan they were drawn from, which is why the blocks are wide and the setbacks are deep. Dudley Street in the south keeps the name of the original Dudley subdivision. The General Motors Holden plant ran off Wentworth Avenue from 1940 to 1981 and Westfield Eastgardens was later built over part of the site. Housing is still overwhelmingly detached: 986 of 1,304 occupied private dwellings, or 75.6%, were separate houses at the 2021 Census, only 12.5% were flats, and 38% were owned outright.

Deep blocks and single-storey brick-and-tile mean long fascia and eave runs, timber window frames, and rendered piers and letterboxes that all weather at different rates. Owners who have held the house for decades tend to book a full exterior repaint rather than patch work, and with 2.9 people per household on average we stage interiors room by room so the family can stay put.
