Common Questions
Fast answers about scope, process, and what to expect before booking.
Local painters in Newcastle know the weather and the salt air. Plus, you get a clear scope, tidy work, and a coat that lasts.
We do the prep and small repairs. Then we put on primer and two top coats. We tidy up each day, and we walk the job with you at the end.
Most single-storey homes fall between $4,000 and $9,000. Two-storey homes with more prep or scaffold can run $10,000 to $18,000 or more. What moves the price is size, how much prep it needs, and how hard it is to reach. Our quotes are free, so you know the cost up front.
Most inside repaints take two to four days, room by room. A one-storey outside repaint takes three to five days. Bigger homes, or ones that need a lot of prep, take longer. We give you a clear plan before we start.
Yes. Every paint job comes with a 5-year workmanship warranty. We also use premium paint, which carries its own maker warranty. If a fault shows up, we sort it out fast.
Yes. We hold NSW Contractor Licence 492257C and carry $20M public liability cover. We show you both before any work starts.
We use premium brands such as Dulux, Haymes and Solver. For coastal walls that cop sun and spray, we pick systems rated for salt air and UV. We will tell you what suits your surface best.
Yes. We work around your routine. We use low-VOC, low smell paint where it helps, above all in bedrooms and living rooms. We stage the work so key rooms stay usable. We also cover floors, furniture and walkways for the whole job.
We look at quote requests fast, then confirm timing once we have checked the scope. If your job is urgent, we do the key areas first.
Yes. We can suggest colours that suit your surface, your light and what you want. If you want a full colour plan, we can point you to a specialist. We also paint test patches, so you can see the colour in your own light first.
We watch the weather each day. We plan the wash, the prep and the top coats around rain and damp air. If a day is lost, we tell you the new dates and pick it back up as soon as it dries.
Yes. We cover Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland, Port Stephens and the Hunter Valley. We plan travel early, so we turn up when we say we will.
Yes. We use careful prep and match the colour closely. Old details stay safe. We can also match trims and older colour sets where you want them.
We pick prep and coatings made for salt air, strong sun and damp. So the coat grips better and lasts longer near the coast than standard paint.
Yes. We do a lot of rental turnovers. We work with the agent on access, scope and hand over. We plan the job to fit the gap between tenants, so the place is not empty for long.
It depends on the season and your job. Small inside jobs can often start within a week or two. Outside jobs in spring and summer book out sooner, so ask early. We give you a real date at the quote.
Not straight over it. Flaking paint has to come off first, or the new coat lifts with it. We scrape back the loose paint, sand the edges smooth, spot-prime the bare patches, then paint. Sound paint we clean and paint over.
