Bondi Junction NSW 2022

Painting in Bondi Junction

Bondi Junction sits six kilometres east of the CBD in Waverley. Its centre is shops and offices around the Oxford Street Mall, with at least twenty buildings of twelve levels or more, while the streets further out are Victorian and Federation houses.

High-rise strata, shopfronts and older houses each need a different approach. Towers need lifts or scaffold and a written plan for work at height, shops need after-hours work, and older homes need lead-safe preparation.

We are a family-run Eastern Suburbs team based in Matraville, and Bondi Junction is part of our home patch.

What painting a Bondi Junction home involves

Apartment towers and strata

Common property is quoted to the strata manager and committee's scope. Scaffold, swing stages or lifts are priced as their own allowance, every painter above 2 metres signs a Safe Work Method Statement, and our insurance and licence are verified through EBIX and Trades Monitor.

Shops and offices

Shopfronts, offices and food outlets around the Mall and Oxford Street are painted after hours or on weekends so you keep trading, with signs and barriers keeping the public clear.

Waverley heritage rules

Waverley Council says most work in a heritage conservation area needs a DA, but a Heritage Exemption Certificate may be enough for minor works. Its planning controls say previously unpainted stone and face brick should not be painted, because paint traps moisture and the masonry frets. We confirm what applies to your property before we quote.

Lead paint in older homes

We assume any home built before 1970 has lead paint until it is tested. That means wet sanding and wet scraping only, sealed-off work areas, P2 respirators, and every flake and sheet of plastic bagged and taken away. Lead work is priced and agreed with you before it starts.

Every quote lists the preparation, product, coats and access for each surface. See how we quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from Bondi Junction homeowners, strata managers and business owners.

It depends on whether it is a heritage item or in a heritage conservation area. Waverley Council says most development there needs a Development Application, but for minor works a Heritage Exemption Certificate may be sufficient. Its planning controls also say previously unpainted stone and face brick should not be painted. We are painters, not planners, so confirm with council before work starts.

Yes. Scaffolding over 4 metres is put up by a licensed scaffolding company, and lifts are run by trained operators, with boom lifts over 11 metres needing a high-risk work licence. Access is always priced as its own line, and every painter at height signs a site-specific Safe Work Method Statement.

Yes. We paint shops, offices and food outlets after hours and on weekends so the business keeps trading. It is priced as after-hours work on the quote, and we complete any centre or building induction before we start.

It depends on the size of the home, the condition of the surfaces, access and how much repair is needed, so we do not publish prices. Dougall comes out, measures every surface and sends a written, line-by-line quote, usually within about a week, at no charge. Our How We Quote page explains exactly what goes into the price.
