Why Aluminium Window Restoration Beats Replacement Every Time
When the aluminium frames around your windows and doors start looking dull, faded, or damaged, many homeowners jump to one conclusion — it’s time to replace them. But before you rip them out and spend thousands on new ones, there’s a smarter, more affordable alternative: aluminium restoration and respraying.
At EastSide 2pack, we specialise in restoring and recolouring old aluminium frames with a premium 2-pack spray paint system. It gives your home a like-new finish at a fraction of the cost of replacement — and it lasts.
1. It’s Far More Cost-Effective
The average cost of replacing aluminium windows or sliding doors can easily reach $1,500–$4,000 per opening. That adds up quickly — especially across an entire house.
In contrast, restoration and respraying usually costs 70–80% less than replacement. You get the same aesthetic upgrade without tearing out perfectly functional frames.
2. It’s Faster and Less Disruptive
Full window or door replacement means demolition, potential wall damage, delays, and scheduling trades. Restoration avoids all of that. We work on-site, and most jobs are done in just a week or two with no major disruption.
3. You Retain Your Original Frames
Older aluminium frames were built strong. Unless they’re physically damaged or severely corroded, there’s no need to replace them. Restoration lets you upgrade the look while keeping the structure.
4. Our 2-Pack Finish is Tougher Than Standard Paint
We use a professional 2-pack spray paint — the same grade used in automotive, marine and architectural applications. It chemically hardens for superior durability:
- UV-resistant – resists fading and yellowing
- Weatherproof – perfect for coastal conditions
- Hard-wearing – stands up to chips and scratches
5. It’s Better for the Environment
Thousands of tonnes of usable aluminium end up in landfill every year. Restoration avoids unnecessary waste and reduces demand for new materials, making it a sustainable choice.
6. You Can Modernise Any Home — Instantly
New colours can completely transform your home’s style. Whether it’s matte black, coastal white, or charcoal grey, we can custom colour match to your vision or decor.
7. Adds Instant Property Value
Restoring tired window and door frames can instantly increase your home’s perceived value. Ideal for those preparing to sell or rent, it improves curb appeal and gives buyers a modern first impression — without a huge outlay.

- Protect all surrounding surfaces
- Clean and sand aluminium frames
- Repair damage or flaking
- Apply professional-grade etch primer
