Call 0423 956 013

How much does painting cost in Sydney?

It depends on the size of the job, the surfaces and how much prep they need. John or Daniel inspects first, then you get a fixed price in writing.

Do you paint inside and outside?

Yes. We paint interior walls, ceilings, doors and trims, and exterior walls, window frames and balustrades.

Do you fix cracks before painting?

Yes. Cracks and holes are filled and sanded before any paint goes on, so they don't show through.

Can painting be part of a bigger renovation?

Yes. We run painting with the rest of the job on our kitchen, bathroom and whole-home renovations.

Have you painted larger buildings?

Yes. On a government housing job in Petersham we did the full interior and exterior paint across 12 units.

Do I have to manage the trades?

No. We book, schedule and supervise every trade. You make the choices and get regular progress updates along the way.

What guarantee do I get?

10 years on our workmanship, subject to the scope of works. If something we built isn't right, we come back. Manufacturer warranties on products are passed to you at handover.
