House painting in Hampton

Interior and exterior painting for homes from the 1910s to the 1930s, with the surfaces patched, sanded and primed first. Under a heritage overlay, painting a surface that hasn’t been painted before can need a planning permit, so we check first.

Homes and building in Hampton

Hampton sits between Brighton and Sandringham. Hampton Street has more than 50 cafés and restaurants, and Picnic Point is the long-standing beach spot on the foreshore.

Homes from the 1910s to the 1930s may have timber floors and older plumbing and wiring, which shape how a bathroom or kitchen renovation is done.

Before you start

What to check first in Hampton

  • Get a free planning property report for your address from VicPlan. It shows the zone and any overlays (such as heritage, flooding or vegetation) that apply to your Hampton block.
  • Many Hampton homes date from the 1910s to the 1930s, so before a renovation strips out walls, floors or eaves, check for asbestos. WorkSafe Victoria notes asbestos can be found in buildings built before 1990 (WorkSafe Victoria).
  • Under a heritage overlay, a planning permit is generally needed to demolish, to change the outside of the building, and to paint a surface that hasn’t been painted before, so allow time for that before the building permit.

Planning questions for Hampton go to Bayside City Council. Building permits are issued by a registered building surveyor.

Questions

Hampton questions

Which council handles planning permits in Hampton?

Bayside City Council, under the Bayside Planning Scheme. A free VicPlan planning property report shows the zone and overlays for your address, and the council can tell you whether your project needs a planning permit.

Can you renovate a 1930s Hampton home?

Yes. We assess the floor structure, plumbing and wiring, check for asbestos, then renovate with waterproofing to the current standard. Your written quote sets out the scope.

How much does a renovation or new build cost in Hampton?

It depends on the job, the size, the finishes and what we find on site, so we don’t publish a price list. For homes from the 1910s to the 1930s in Hampton, we visit first and then give you a written, itemised quote. Our renovation costs guide explains what drives the price.
