Double Bay sits on the harbour about four kilometres east of the CBD in the Woollahra municipality, between Darling Point, Edgecliff, Bellevue Hill and Point Piper.
Houses, apartment blocks and village shops each need a different approach, so Dougall comes out, measures every surface and sends a written, line-by-line quote before any work is booked.

Water damage, mould and remedial repainting, priced to the insurer's or builder's scope with photos at every stage.
Learn moreWoollahra Council says repainting a heritage item or a building in a heritage conservation area may not need development consent, but only once council has confirmed in writing, before work starts, that the work is minor or maintenance. Its guide covers painting traditionally painted surfaces, not face brick, stonework, tiles or other surfaces that were never painted.
Common property is quoted to the strata manager and committee's scope. Scaffold or lifts are priced as their own allowance, and every painter above 2 metres signs a Safe Work Method Statement.
Shops, cafes and offices around Knox Street, Cross Street and Bay Street are painted after hours or on weekends so you keep trading, with signs and barriers keeping the public clear.
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.

Common questions from Double Bay homeowners, strata managers and business owners.
If it is a heritage item or in a heritage conservation area, you need council's written go-ahead, but usually not a full DA. Under clause 5.10(3) of the Woollahra Local Environmental Plan 2014, Woollahra Council can confirm in writing that minor or maintenance work does not need consent, and its guide lists painting traditionally painted surfaces as that kind of work. Face brick, stonework and tiles are excluded. The written response must come before work starts, so confirm with council first.
Yes. We have applied decorative speciality finishes inside a Double Bay residence, and you can see that job on our projects page. Finishes like these are quoted separately, with the preparation and product listed for each surface.
We assume any home built before 1970 has lead paint until it is tested. We use wet sanding and wet scraping only, seal off the work area, wear P2 respirators, and bag and remove all dust, flakes and sheeting. Lead work changes the method and the cost, so it is priced as a variation and agreed with you 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.
Yes. We are based in Matraville and paint across Sydney, with most of our work in the Eastern Suburbs, the Inner West and the North Shore. Call Dougall on 0438 300 403 to book a free on-site quote.
