Our painting services
One trusted team for your home or business
Platinum Painting is an owner-led painting company serving Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland and the Hunter Valley. The team handles interior, exterior, commercial, strata, residential repaint and new home painting, with fixed-price written quotes, premium trade paints and a 5-year workmanship warranty on every job.
Why our finishes last
Proper prep is 90% of a great paint job.
Anyone can make a wall look good on handover day. The difference shows up two winters later. We wash, sand, prime and seal before a single top coat goes on, because that is the only honest way to guarantee a finish for five years.
Wash, repair & sand
Old coatings come back to a sound, smooth surface. Cracks and dents are filled, feathered and sanded flat before anything else happens.
Prime & seal
Bare and patched surfaces are primed and sealed so the top coats bond properly and stay bonded, year after year.
Two premium top coats
Dulux, Haymes, Taubmans or Wattyl, rolled on in two full coats for a dense, even, durable finish.
Backed for 5 years
The finished surface is guaranteed in writing against peeling and cracking. That is only possible because of steps one to three.
Detailed written quotes
Clear scope and fixed pricing, you know exactly what you are paying for.
Meticulous preparation
Where we never cut corners, on any job, at any size.
Clean, on-time finish
We tidy up daily and finish when we said we would.
Offices, retail and warehouses, on budget, on schedule, after-hours options.

Read our reviews on Google“Dean and his team did a fantastic job. They turned my mum's tired old house, which looked like the oldest one in the street, into one of the newest and most modern. It seriously looks like one of the many new builds on the street. You have exceeded all expectations.”
Kristy W. “The team did an amazing job at our 2 storey home. Days were spent preparing: sanding, priming and sealing, and only quality Dulux products were used. We had an internal concrete wall that was severely cracked, but you'd never know it now. We are delighted with the end result.”
L.M. “We received three quotes to paint our three storey home in Eleebana and chose Platinum. Detailed veranda railings, six garages, three levels, all handled with real professionalism and care. The attention to detail and quality of the finish were outstanding.”

Hi, I’m Dean.
I started Platinum Painting on a simple belief: a paint job should be done properly, by people who genuinely care about your home. Every quote I give and every coat we lay down, that’s my name on it.
We’re a local Hunter crew. We turn up when we say we will, treat your place like our own, and we’re not finished until you’re genuinely happy. That’s the promise behind our 5-year guarantee, and it’s why so much of our work comes from neighbours and referrals.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know
Do you offer free quotes?
Yes, every quote is free and completely obligation-free. We'll visit your property, assess the work and provide a detailed written quote with clear, fixed pricing.
Which areas do you service?
We serve Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland and the wider Hunter Valley, including Merewether, Charlestown, Cardiff and surrounding suburbs. Not sure if we cover your area? Just ask.
Are you licensed and insured?
Absolutely. Platinum Painting is fully licensed (Lic No. 459336C) and insured, so you're completely covered for every job, big or small.
How much do painters charge per hour in NSW?
Platinum doesn't charge by the hour. Many painters quote hourly, which leaves you exposed if a job runs long, so we provide a fixed-price written quote for the whole project, locked in regardless of how many hours it takes.
How much does it cost to repaint a house in Australia?
Costs vary widely by home size, location and condition, so a genuine figure only comes from a proper on-site assessment. What stays constant with Platinum is fixed-price certainty, premium paints and a 5-year workmanship warranty, so you're investing in a finish that lasts.
