Painting service
Trusted by insurance builders, strata managers, and quality-conscious homeowners across Perth.
Wallpaper hanging and installation across Perth: feature walls and full rooms, with walls prepped flat, patterns matched and seams kept tight for a clean finish.
The offer
Wallpaper lives or dies on the prep and the seams. Hung over a lumpy wall, or with mismatched patterns and lifting edges, it looks worse than paint ever could. Hung properly, it transforms a room. Visual Effect hangs wallpaper across Perth alongside its painting work, with the same eye for a clean finish.
The wall comes first. It is filled, sanded flat and sized so the paper adheres evenly and does not bubble. Then the paper is hung, with patterns matched across each drop and around corners, and seams kept tight and flush. Edges are trimmed neatly to ceilings, skirtings, switches and window openings.
We hang single feature walls and full rooms. Usually you supply the wallpaper you have fallen for, and we will help you work out how many rolls to order so you are not caught short mid-job.
Wallpaper is a nice counterpoint to a painted feature wall, and is often done as part of a wider interior repaint or house painting job. Every quote is fixed-price and written.
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 wallpaper hanging & installation 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.
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.
