Primeline Painting The painter that treats the coast as part of the job.
Primeline is a Gold Coast owned painting business. We started for one honest reason: too many good homes were being repainted with the wrong system for the salt and sun, and failing within a couple of summers.
Painting looks simple until the coast gets involved. Salt air and hard Queensland UV find every shortcut in the prep and the product, and a rushed repaint shows it within a couple of summers.
The founder started Primeline after years of being called back to fix repaints that had failed early. The answer was never a better brush. It was honest prep and the right system for the exposure.
On the coast, the prep and the system are the whole job. Everything else is just colour.
Today we cover interior and exterior repaints, roof restoration, timber and render coatings, and commercial and strata work across the Gold Coast, with no travel surcharge inside our local service radius.
Three things we will not compromise on.
The itemised page vs the text-message price.
Prep before paint
The finish only lasts if the surface underneath is sound. We prep back properly before a drop of topcoat goes on.
The right system for the exposure
Sea-facing and full-sun walls get a different, higher-grade system than sheltered ones. We match it and name it on your quote.
Fixed price, honoured
The price we quote is the price you pay. If we find something during prep, we agree it with you before any extra work, never after.
The same painter, start to finish
You get one accountable painter on your job, not a different backpacker crew every day.
Are we the right painter for you?
We are a fit if you want the job done properly and backed in writing, not the cheapest number on the street.
We are the right fit if you want the job done properly and backed in writing, and you would rather pay once for ten years than twice in three. We are not the cheapest quote on the street, and we are upfront about that.
