About Visual Effect
Perth painting, done once and done properly
Hi, I'm Jack, owner of Visual Effect Painting & Decorating Perth. I've been painting for 16 years and started the business in Westminster in 2013. I don't skip the preparation, because proper prep is what makes a finish last.
Every job is quoted fixed-price and in writing, with a free colour consultation. Whether it's a single room, a full house repaint or a commercial site, you deal with me from the first walk-through to the final touch-up.
Pricing
What does it cost?
We quote per job: fixed price, written, no surprise extras. Every quote is itemised so you know what you're paying for, and we include the materials we'll use, the labour split, and the timeline.
A full interior repaint of a 4-bedroom Perth home typically lands at $8,000 to $18,000, depending on surface condition, ceiling work, and finish level. Exterior repaints vary more with access and substrate. We give you a fixed-price written quote after a 30-minute on-site visit, with no guesswork and no hidden extras.
No. Quotes and on-site colour consultations are free. Jack comes out, walks the job with you, talks through colours if you want, and follows up with a fixed-price written quote, usually within 48 hours.
A cheaper quote almost always means less preparation, lower-grade paint, or a partial scope that grows once the job starts. A "cheap" repaint that skips prep can fail in a couple of years and cost you a full repaint to fix. We quote the whole job up front, including full surface prep and two coats of premium Dulux, so the price you're told is the price you pay, and the finish lasts.
Yes. Our minimum job size is $1,500. Single-wall touch-ups and one-off small jobs aren't a great fit for the way we work, but we're happy to point you to someone better suited to the scope.
Jack painted our kitchen following a renovation. Jack is very personable, easy to do business with and the quality of his work is to a very high standard. Jack takes a lot of pride in his work and it shows, the walls and ceiling are the best they have ever looked. As the space is open plan Jack also took great care to blend the new area in with the existing dining and sitting area. I would definitely use Jack again and have already booked him up for another room!

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
A full interior repaint of a 3 to 4 bedroom Perth home usually runs 10 to 12 days; a basic repaint is quicker, and exterior work depends on access and surface condition. We confirm a start date and lock the timeline at quote stage, and we don't drift from it without telling you well ahead of time.
Yes. For most repaints we work around you, room by room, and tidy up at the end of every day. Whole-house jobs are easier on everyone if rooms are cleared ahead of us, and we'll talk through what to expect at quote stage so you can plan around it.
Premium Dulux finishes as standard: Wash & Wear for interior walls and Weathershield for exteriors, with the right primers and undercoats for each surface. Every product is itemised on your quote, so there's no guessing about what's going on your walls. If you've got a brand or product preference, tell Jack and he'll work to it.
We're based in Westminster and cover the greater Perth metro: the inner northern suburbs (Stirling, Balcatta, Yokine, Karrinyup), the western beaches (Scarborough, Trigg, Hillarys), the northern corridor (Joondalup, Duncraig, Greenwood) and across to the river suburbs (Subiaco, Mount Hawthorn, Nedlands). If you're a little further out, just ask and Jack will tell you honestly whether it's worth the trip.
Yes. Visual Effect is fully insured. Certificates of currency are available on request, and the cover details sit on every written quote. That matters most to the insurance builders and strata managers we work with, but every homeowner gets the same protection.
