Painting service
Trusted by insurance builders, strata managers, and quality-conscious homeowners across Perth.
Repaints and pre-sale painting across Perth: fast interior and exterior refreshes in clean, neutral colours, timed to your sale or lease campaign and kept tidy for inspections.
The offer
A fresh coat of paint is the cheapest way to lift what a home sells or rents for, as long as it is done quickly and looks sharp in the photos. Agents and owners across Perth’s nicer suburbs call Jack in before a sale because the work is clean, neutral and on time. After 16 years he knows the colours and the turnaround that sell.
Visual Effect handles repaints and pre-sale painting across Perth: full interior and exterior repaints to freshen a home for sale, lease or moving in. Tired walls, scuffed skirtings, marked ceilings and dated colours are prepped and repainted in clean, neutral tones that photograph well and appeal to the widest pool of buyers.
Pre-sale work runs differently to a lived-in repaint. The house is usually empty or being cleared, so we move fast, keep the site tidy for inspections, and time the finish to the campaign. For owners getting a place ready to live in, we work around you with minimal disruption.
Every quote is fixed-price and written, with a free colour consultation to land on tones that sell. Most pre-sale jobs are a mix of interior painting and exterior painting; for the full property in one go see house painting.
To keep the quote honest and the project boundaries clear, the items on the right are explicitly outside this scope.
Our process
On-site visit, walk the job, free colour consultation if you want it, written quote within 48 hours.
We confirm a start date and lock the timeline. No drift.
Surface prep is the part most painters skip. Then masking, two coats of premium Dulux, and daily clean-up. We work around you and other trades.
Final inspection together. Touch-ups before you sign off.
Pricing
Every repaints & pre-sale painting perth job is quoted per scope: fixed price, written, no surprise extras. Itemised so you know what you're paying for.
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 is a very professional and nice person. He works quietly and efficiently, to a very high standard. He is very knowledgeable about paint and painting, and knows his business very well. He is punctual, true to his word, cleans up after himself, and will work around you and other trades on site with a very courteous nature. We would have Jack back anytime for painting and highly recommend him, which we have already done.

FAQ
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.

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.
Every job comes with a written workmanship warranty. We stand behind the prep and the finish, and if something we did lifts, flakes or fails inside the warranty window, we come back and put it right. Sixteen years of repeat customers and referrals is the longer guarantee.
