Painting on the Tomaree Peninsula
Local painters for Nelson Bay's coastal homes
Procover Painting paints houses, units and commercial buildings in Nelson Bay and across the Tomaree Peninsula. The homes here are a real mix. There are older weatherboard beach houses, rendered brick homes, newer builds in Corlette and Salamander Bay, and plenty of apartments close to the marina.
Many of these are holiday homes or rentals, so the owner often lives elsewhere. We agree on the scope, colours and access up front, keep you updated during the job and leave the place clean and ready to use.

Local knowledge
Built for Nelson Bay's coastal conditions
Nelson Bay sits on a peninsula with water on almost every side. Salt air, strong sun and sea breezes are part of daily life here, and they’re hard on paint. We plan every coastal job around them.
Salt in the air
Salt settles on walls, eaves and window frames, and paint won't bond to it. We wash every surface with fresh water first, then use exterior paints made for coastal homes.
Strong sun and sea breezes
North and west walls fade first, and the wind carries sand and salt. We paint on calm, dry days so each coat goes on evenly and cures properly.
Colorbond near the water
BlueScope, the maker of Colorbond, advises washing sheltered areas at least every six months, and more often near salt spray. We clean, prime and recoat metal with products made for it.

Ideas for your home
Where to start with your repaint
Coastal homes usually need repainting sooner than homes further inland. You don’t have to do the whole house at once. Start with the side that cops the most weather, or the rooms guests see first. We’ll help you decide what to include and pick colours that suit the bright coastal light.
Getting a holiday rental ready
A fresh, neutral interior and a tidy front entry help your listing photos and guest reviews. We can plan the work between bookings to keep downtime short.
Reviving a weatherboard beach house
We scrape back loose paint, fill gaps and prime bare timber before the new coats go on. Good prep is what makes a coastal finish last.
Refreshing a unit or townhouse
Walls, ceilings, doors and trims done room by room, with floors, benches and fittings fully protected.

FAQ
Nelson Bay painting FAQs
Got a different question? Harry’s happy to help over the phone.
What does house painting cost in Nelson Bay?
It depends on the size of your home, the surfaces you want painted, their condition and access. Coastal homes can need extra washing and prep. A single room costs far less than a full exterior. We give you a free, fixed written quote after a site visit, so you know the exact price before any work starts.
How often does a coastal home need repainting?
It depends on how close you are to the water and which way your walls face. Homes near the beach usually need repainting sooner than homes inland. Hosing down your walls, eaves and window frames with fresh water every few months helps the paint last longer. We can check your paint and tell you honestly whether it needs doing yet.
Can you paint my holiday home while I'm away?
Yes. Many Nelson Bay owners live out of the area. We agree on the scope, colours and access before we start, send you updates as the job goes, and plan the work around your bookings where we can.
Do you spray paint metal surfaces like Colorbond and aluminium?
Yes. We spray Colorbond fences, garage doors and aluminium window frames. Each surface is cleaned and primed with a metal primer first. We mask off glass, rubber seals, tracks and plants before we spray.
Is Procover Painting licensed and insured?
Yes. We hold NSW contractor licence 392662C and full public liability insurance. Ask us and we’ll send copies before the job starts.
What warranty do I get?
All our residential and commercial jobs come with a 5-year workmanship warranty. If our paint peels or flakes in that time, we come back and repair it.
