Painting service
Reliable, fully insured painting for strata managers and unit complexes across Perth, with minimal disruption to residents.
Strata and unit complex painting across Perth, covering common property, building exteriors, corridors, balconies and car parks, scheduled around residents and reported back to the manager.
The offer
For a strata manager, a repaint is really about three things: the building looking after itself for another decade, the residents not complaining, and the invoice matching the quote. After 16 years across Perth, that is exactly how Jack runs a strata job.
Visual Effect paints strata and unit complexes across Perth: the building exteriors, the corridors and stairwells, the foyers, the balconies and railings, and the car-park areas. The work starts with a walk-through alongside the manager, so the scope, the staging, and the access arrangements are agreed in writing before anyone picks up a brush.
The prep is where a common-property repaint is won or lost. Render and brick are washed down and made good, metal railings and balustrades are treated for rust, and everything is sealed correctly before the premium top coats go on. Coastal complexes in the northern suburbs get coatings chosen to stand up to salt air and sun.
Residents are the part most painters get wrong. We stage the work so access stays clear, keep noise and mess to set hours, tidy every day, and send the manager a short written update on progress. One point of contact, one accountable tradesperson, start to finish.
Being fully insured with a clean 5.0★ record is why strata managers and insurance builders across Perth keep Jack on the list. For single buildings and offices see commercial painting, and for the outside of any property see exterior 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 strata & unit complex 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.
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.
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.
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.
