Interior house painters near me? Interior House Painters Sydney? A lot of Mosman home owners think that all painters are pretty much alike. I mean, how hard can it be? But painting a house interior is hard … to do properly. And like so many things in life using a SPECIALIST works better than using a GENERALIST. That is, when you have an interior that needs painting hire a specialist INTERIOR PAINTER. Also hire a different kind of specialist painter if you have an apartment stairwell, a wooden exterior, a factory wall, some kitchen cupboards, a kids school, a newly built house, a church … You get the idea. I’ll be the first to admit that we painters don’t help. Most of us have marketing that claims we can paint anything that doesn’t move. But don’t let bad marketing get in the way of the brilliant paint job you want. I will guarantee that each of the ‘we can paint anything’ painters has an area that they are very good at because thats what they MOSTLY DO. Your job as a Mosman home owner is to make sure YOUR PAINTER is an expert in YOUR PAINTING TASK, whether they highlight that in marketing or not. The best way is to read some painters Google reviews. Google Reviews Here you will find satisfied customers raving about, not painting in general but, their specific painting needs. The more they talk about interiors (or whatever you want) the better. You have dug out that painters speciality! Well done! OK But WHY is hiring a specialist painter so important? 1. INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF THE CRAFT House painting is a craft. Its a combination of physical movement and an intimate knowledge of the materials used and an understanding of the materials being painted. The more the same materials are worked on, the better the painter becomes. Meet The Tidy Painter. 2. INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF LOCAL BUILDING TYPES & MATERIALS Over time building designs change. So a specialist interior painter who works on a lot of say, older homes, like the ones found in Mosman, becomes an expert in working with those construction designs. The same is true with your homes materials. Just one example in older Mosman homes is ceiling material. 100 years ago it was mostly wet plaster reinforced with horse hair - from horses! This stuff cracks over time but seldom falls. Its quite different to current Gyprock ‘plaster between 2 layers of paper’, and must be treated very differently. 3. INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS KNOW THE RIGHT PAINT TO USE Unfortunately some painters have a ‘bulk deal’ when it comes to paint and only use one brand to get a discount. A good specialist interior guy should use the paint that is BEST for each application. I use Dulux for walls and ceilings but an American brand Zinsser for a lot of priming needs. Its essential to be flexible and use whats Best! Best paint brands in Australia? 4. INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS HAVE THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT Example: I have 7 different kids of ladders. They are all designed to do different jobs INSIDE a Mosman home, working around whats there, reaching high ceilings, and not damaging anything. I don’t have any scaffolding because it is a CONSTRUCTION tool and would wreck your furniture or floors. 5. INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS HAVE THE RIGHT CREW I work alone (mostly in Mosman) so as to take up minimal space in your home. In the past I’ve hired mostly women who seem more careful with interiors. I’ve seen exterior guys come inside to clean brushes and make a huge mess in the clients laundry, because they thought they were on a dirty building site. 6.INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS SPEND MORE TIME ON PREP EVERY client I’ve EVER had is surprised by how long my interior painting preparation takes. Much more than a quick sand. Real prep. includes removing hardware, removing curtains, filling holes and cracks, washing, scrubbing, de-glossing, mould scrubbing, mould killing, primer painting etc. And each process must be left to dry out before the next can happen. 6 ways to fix wall cracks and ceiling cracks 7.INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS SPEND MORE TIME ON PROTECTION Your home interior is NOT a building site. It must be protected from furniture moving, the prep process, the painting process, people and ladders moving around. Interior protection usually includes masking tape, cardboard floor protection, canvas drop sheets, plastic furniture wrapping. 8.INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS SPEND MORE TIME ON PAINTING Older Mosman homes just take longer to paint. All those plaster bits, picture rails, detailed timber, and other nooks and crannies take far longer than a smooth modern room. And oil based trim paint is notoriously slow to dry - try 16 hours per coat! 9.INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS SPEND MORE TIME CLEANING UP A good and experienced Interior painter doesn’t just pack up tools and leave when the painting is done. No, your home interior needs to be returned to being at least as clean as when the whole process started. Personally I try to leave it cleaner, but thats just me. So hopefully I’ve convinced you that not all house painters are the same. And that a specialist Interior house painter is needed for the interior of YOUR Mosman Home.

You’ve noticed wall cracks in your Mosman home and you’re not happy. But who to call? The first thing to do is get a general idea of how bad the situation is. Cracks (whether in walls or ceilings) are either structural or visual. Structural Cracks - more serious - usually outdoors (sometimes indoors) Thick cracks wider than 3 mm stepped cracks cracks getting longer cracks getting wider sinking concrete or foundations dampness If you think you have structural cracks you need an to get an engineer to assess that problem and recommend what to do next. Someone like https://cornellengineers.com.au/cracks-and-gaps/ There are also specialist foundation repair companies but you need to be sure that your foundations are actually the problem and not something else. The engineer will tell you this. Visual Cracks - easier to fix - usually indoors Thin cracks less than 3mm wide Short cracks Cracks in old ceiling (plaster and lath) can be quite long Thin cracks radiating from interior doors and windows Visual cracks that are not getting worse are usually caused by very subtle movements over time, either within a year or two of construction OR more likely in Mosman, when a building gets quite old. The hard part is to find a person to fix these cracks so that will last. Most plasterers find these jobs too small to bother with. And most Mosman painters give a quick fill then get painting. But at The Tidy Painter (thats me) I have a whole proper crack filling system that gives the best chance of success FOLLOWED by a great paint job. Here are two links giving a bit more detail on how I do this: HOW TO FIX CRACKS IN WALLS AND CEILINGS https://www.mosman-handyman.com.au/blog/how-to-fix-cracks-in-walls-and-ceilings-in-2021 WALL-CEILING-CRACKS https://www.mosman-handyman.com.au/wall-ceiling-cracks.html So if your Mosman home interior needs painting but also has visual cracks that need fixing, we should have a chat.

No one likes the idea of being ripped off. Thats why hiring a tradie or painter can be such a challenge. Obviously you want someone who knows what they’re doing AND someone who’s polite and pleasant. But … you ask yourself, is this price super-high just because I live in Mosman? I just want a reasonable price! The trouble is that ALL painting quotes seem far too much! This is because ALL paint jobs involve much more labour than most people expect. And more time equals more money. So the sense that you are being overcharged is inevitable. The solution most Mosman people find, is to get 3 quotes and choose the middle one. Thats what my wife and I used to do all the time and the results were … not great to be honest From the outset, you’ve compromised. All that 3 quotes show you is what 3 different painters would charge. So what?Was the most expensive the best? Was the cheapest the worst? Why 3 quotes? Why not 4 or 10No wonder so many people get 3 quotes then do nothing! How to find a REASONABLY PRICED MOSMAN PAINTER who is also a GREAT Mosman painter. Why not try some or all of these suggestion sto get the right guy AND the right price. 1. Accept the Golden Rule - even in Mosman. You (generally) get what you pay for with your reasonably priced painter. Very cheap painters are almost guaranteed to be very bad. And very good painters are never cheap. There are of course a few exceptions to look out for. Exception A. The good painter who gets too busy and hires a D team but still charges for an A team. This is why you should meet the guy doing YOUR paint job. Exception B. The Good painter who is fully booked but will try an absurdly high quote and see if you bite. Both approaches are unethical in my opinion. Thats why fully researched past client reviews are so important. 2. Don’t hire the middle quote. Hire the BEST quote. Hire the Mosman Painter … Who seemed to GET you and your issues, Who listened, Who could communicate, Who had great reviews, Who seemed like you could bear having around the house for weeks. Theres your BEST painter. 3. Set a budget for your reasonably priced painter. Very few people do this and I find it surprising. If you’ve found a painter you like the look of why not start the conversation with your budget? “We want these 3 bedrooms and a lounge room fully painted. And our budget is $6k. Can you make that work?” A lot of painters will have a few suggestions to make this happen. Just don’t spring the budget on the poor guy AFTER he’s spent 8 hours writing up a quote. Your chances of success are much lower then. 4. Choose your timing well for your reasonably priced painter. November to December is ALWAYS busy and booked out. Don’t leave finding a painter too late or you’ll have to accept a dud or pay much extra. But WINTER is often slow so the very best painter may have an opening AND be willing to work to your budget (see above). 5. Be prepared to wait for your reasonably priced painter. Good specialist painters are often booked months in advance, especially in Mosman. It really pays to be prepared to join the que and wait. You will get a much wider range to choose from. I hope these tips help you find not only a reasonably priced Mosman painter but also a GREAT Mosman painter. Good Luck!  Who are the 5 best painters in Mosman in 2022?
You want your Mosman home interior painted. And you want the top painter or team for the job. But who is the best? If you look online, a number of hire-a-tradie sites list the top painters or best painters in Mosman. But a quick look shows these lists are pretty random - basically anyone who pays to be bumped up the list! Also there are a LOT of painters around so finding the one who is just right for your needs is pretty hard. So let me help. I’ve found there are 3 attributes that add up to getting a top painter (and one that best fits the needs of your Mosman home perfectly). 1. Best Painter Reputation. You want a painter (or team) that past clients rave about. There are many online review sites but Google is still the best. Its the best because its so hard to rig. Trust it. You want all 5 or 4 star reviews. And you want a guy who has done a lot of work in Mosman. Also read what people have said. If a lot mention politeness or punctuality you know thats a common benefit and can expect it for yourself. You want plenty of reviews. Just remember a big painting company will do lots of jobs and get lots of reviews A small painting companies do fewer jobs and so get fewer reviews. Its quality not quantity. Friends Neighbours? Have they had a great painter? Consider their recommendations. Just make sure its for similar work (more on that later) and its the same guy/people doing your work. You don’t want the D team (or worse a subcontracted team) from an otherwise good company. Local FaceBook groups - Mosman Living etc. People love giving recommendations here but the same caveats as above apply. 2. Best Painter Specialisation. You want a specialist for YOUR problem/task/job. Great painters have a specialisation. They may be quiet able to do lots of things but you want your guy to be an expert at YOUR task. In Mosman thats often dealing with older Federation style homes, rather than modern simpler ones. For example there are great interior painters, great exterior painters, great strata painters, great handyman painters, great high rise painters. You get the idea. 3. Best Painter Personality. Or put another way you want a GOOD FIT. No one likes conflict or disharmony or lack of communication. So its really important to be comfortable with your chosen painter. Thats why its vital to meet the guy who will be in your home for weeks on end, and see if you can actually talk to each other. Reviews mentioned above help get a feel as well. Eg. polite, tidy, quiet, communication etc. To save you months of work, I’ve put together a list of painters who meet ALL 3 attributes including their specialities. Some I know, some come personally recommended, and some have great reviews from Google and Social Media. 1. Mosman Interior Painters - Tony Richardson - The Tidy Painter Specialising in painting interiors, and fixing cracks often found in older Mosman homes. Being a one man band, Tony is able to work on one or two rooms at a time with minimal interruption to the home owner. www.mosman-handyman.com.au 2. Mosman Exterior Painters - Luke Sunners I’ve worked along side Luke. He is hands on and runs a cheerful busy team. 0412 052 112 3. Mosman Exterior Painters - Rob van der Ent Father and Son duo. I’ve worked along side and recommended to one of my best clients who was very happy. 0414 391 609 www.facebook.com/RobertJvanderEnt 4. Strata Painters - Tony Isgrove’s A big company with full time employees (no sub-contractors). Expertise in Strata and other large jobs or jobs that require lots of hands on deck. 9437 1997 https://paintanddecorate.com.au/ 5. Small Painting /Handyman jobs - Mosman Handyman - Daniele Menna I haven’t met Daniele, but i’ve heard many good reports. Great for painting a door, a ceiling, or touchups … and of course fixing things! 0435 306 311 https://hipages.com.au/connect/danielemennahandyman So these 5 guys are, I believe, the best SPECIALIST Painters for Mosman in 2022. If you have any suggested additions please drop a note in the comments section. Good luck with your Mosman painting project!  After spend nearly 2 years staring at your walls (or your colleagues walls behind them in Zoom calls) its not surprising if you want to make a bit of a colour change to your Mosman home. Vivid White is probably a bit clinical and sterile these days. And we really don’t want to be reminded of hospitals! The usual gang of ‘off white’ paint colours are still fine and you cant really go wrong with them. See my page that makes choosing colour from this list super-easy here LINK. But if you want to change your Mosman home (without too much change!) here are some paint colour suggestions. All are neutral but not so pale as in previous years. Think neutral colours with a bit more 'oomf'. And its nice to see Dulux's veteran paint colour, 'Hog Bristle Half' still providing a nice subtle ‘biscuit’ sort of colour. Hog Bristle (full, half and quarter) has been around for years! Mosman Paint Colour 1 - click on the orange link below DULUX STOWE WHITE Mosman Paint Colour 2 - click on the orange link below DULUX NEW PENNY Mosman Paint Colour 3 - click on the orange link below DULUX HOG BRISTLE HALF Mosman Paint Colour 4 - click on the orange link below DULUX CLAY PIPE HALF Now if you prefer to go a little more adventurous with some ‘strong’ paint colours have a look at this video. You might not want the whole house painted in Dark Brown, but any of these colours would make a great feature wall. And feature wall colours are really easy to change if you get sick of them! Also theres some really interesting mood boards This colour trend video doesn’t give Dulux colours but once you see something you like (or the Pantone Number) its pretty easy to match.
So have a look and if I can help paint your Mosman home interiors in any of these trendy colours I'd love to help!  HOW MUCH DOES A PAINTER COST PER HOUR IN MOSMAN? You want to get your Mosman home painted. It’s reasonable to wonder what the going hourly rate is for those painters. If you’ve done a Google search to find the hourly earnings of a house painter, you’ll probably be surprised by the variety of answers. Some results are from the USA whose dollar is stronger and whose minimum wage is much lower. American results are not much use to us here. Most Australian “painter cost per hour” entries are from “find-a-tradie-listings” - Oneflare, Hipages, Serviceseeking etc. The rates given range from $30 to $60 per hour. At first glance this might seem pretty generous but I'm not so sure. OVERHEAD What a lot of folks forget is that even the tiniest painting business has overheads. As a tiny painting business owner I can accurately say that 20% comes off every dollar in overheads - vehicle, fuel, insurance, equipment, Accounting fees, office supplies, GST. NON BILLABLE HOURS And no painter can be charging clients all the time. There’s always non billable hours taken up with quoting, invoicing, book keeping, buying supplies, maintaining tools, marketing, and just down time between jobs. SICK LEAVE Haha! Don’t make me laugh. The hourly rate has to cover time taken when the painter might be sick. Also painters (and other tradies) have to deal with injury. I spent 9 weeks recovering from a ladder fall. No pay for 9 weeks. HOLIDAY LEAVE See above ALL OVER AUSTRALIA? Also, strangely, the quoted painters hourly rate is assumed to be the same all over Australia. This is just not the case. The cost of living in central Sydney is very different to rural South Australia so the hourly rate should be different. SO WHAT DO YOU RECKON, TONY? You can probably guess that I just don’t think the $30 - $60 per hour figure is in anyway accurate for a painting job in Mosman, or the lower north shore, or indeed ANY suburb of Sydney. After expenses the poor old painter is barely making enough money to justify the risk of running a business! One Hire-a-tradie-list, HireTrades.com.au, has a much more accurate range of figures. They sensibly show the difference between the main cities of Australia.
*Price estimates are based on Rawlinsons’ Australian Construction Handbook 2018, Edition 36 So I think it’s fair to say house painting in Mosman will cost somewhere between $60 and $105 per hour. But do you really want to hire a painter by the hour? Only if you KNOW how long he will take and if you want to become the site foreman, making sure no one slacks off and costs you money. For house painting, hourly is not the way to go. DOES THE HOURLY RATE MATTER? Not really. What matters is that you have a fixed figure for the JOB that you want done. A BETTER WAY TO COMPARE PRICES ON A PAINTING JOB IN MOSMAN Ok, there are the 3 parts that do MATTER when getting and comparing quotes. It’s amazing how seldom clients get all three parts specified. Without ALL THREE you are flying blind and can’t make an accurate assessment of value. And worse still without all three you can spend a fortune and not get what you wanted in the first place! They are: PART 1 - A full itemised list of what WORK is going to be done. A quote to “paint a room” could mean almost anything ...
Occasionally I’m asked to explain why my quoted PRICE is different to another painters quoted PRICE. Almost certainly it’s because the WORK I plan to do is different to the WORK they plan to do. But without their fully itemised breakdown we’ll never know why. PART 2 - A commitment to the NUMBER OF DAYS that your painting job will take. A low price is pretty useless if the painting job is rushed through at lightening speed. I’ve seen five people painting a bathroom at the same time. Some were plastering, some were drying the plaster with hair dryers, some were painting. It was like a Marx Brothers movie! God knows how long that paint job lasted. But, hey, it was cheap! PART 3 - The PRICE. And of course you want to know the price. But you want to know the price IN COMBINATION with work done part and time taken part. Notice that hourly wage doesn’t come into the equation at all. What you want to know is: WHAT WORK IS BEING DONE, AND WHAT TIME IS BEING SPENT, FOR THE MONEY BEING QUOTED? Then and only then can you compare quotes and decide on the best value for YOUR MOSMAN HOME. Looking for a trusted local painter near Mosman or the Lower North Shore?
1. Painters near me for local reviews, references, and referrals. Reviews ALWAYS check your prospective painter’s reviews. Google reviews are best because they are so hard to cheat. Facebook, Yelp and other reviews are OK too. This will tell you if a painter is any good. But by going local you go one better. Better than just reviews, are REVIEWS FROM YOUR NEIGHBOURS! Your neighbours will have similar houses, work situations, and budgets to you. AND they will probably have found true local painters. You can’t get much closer to a practice run and it doesn’t cost you a penny! References Basically a reference is a phone number you can call to speak, in person, the old fashioned way. As mentioned above, the reference will be living in a home similar to yours with similar problems, issues, house type, parking, difficult neighbours etc. Have a chat! Referrals The brilliant painter your friend used in Brisbane isn’t much use to you. It’s the same if your friend had her house painted in Cronulla for the reasons listed above. But imagine a referral from a friend who lives in your area, with your type of house? Again similarity is very useful here. 2. Painters near me for knowledge of local construction style Your House construction has a good chance of being a mixture of old and new. You are probably not surprised to hear that the new bits of your house were built with different materials to the old bits. We painters call the material we paint onto, substrate. Take Gyprock (or Drywall) as just one example. Invented in 1916 it was originally intended for poor people who couldn’t afford a ‘proper’ plaster interior wall or ceiling. But now it’s used in almost all new construction. I can almost guarantee the newer renovated part of your house has Gyprock ceilings and walls. But if the older front part of your home was built before 1940 (that’s most of Mosman and the Lower North Shore) the interior walls will be wet plaster laid over brick work. The ceiling will be wet plaster squished through wooden slats called Lath. So repairing and painting OLD wall and ceiling surfaces is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT to repairing and painting MODERN wall and ceiling surfaces. And don’t even get me started on the differences between old and new windows, doors, skirting boards, picture rails, fire places … and on and on. These substrates are all different and react and move differently. When you want your home painted a guy who has only ever painted new buildings, in the newer parts of Sydney, is not what you want. You want a painter who has worked not only with NEW substrates but also with OLD. You want a local painter who has years of experience making either look great and last a long time. 3. Painters near me knowledge of the best local suppliers. Bunnings is great for the average home handyman. And I admit I buy a lot of my off the shelf painting staples there. But … they are pretty unreliable when it comes to colour mixing. After 4 incorrect colours in 18 months I fired Bunnings from that job. Now I get all my mixed colours done at Inspirations in Cremorne. They are outstanding at mixing or matching colours. And because I work in the Mosman and lower North Shore area Inspirations are my local supplier. Who would I trust if I was painting in Ryde or Paramatta? I have no idea! I also know that Ewens hardware (now Sunlight Mitre 10) on Military Rd Mosman are great for plaster, and small emergency bits and pieces. The last thing you want is for your (non-local) painter to be wandering the country side in search of materials or paint that may not even be the right colour! 4. Painters near me for proximity to home base. Although we try to have everything in our vehicles, ready to go, we painters occasionally have to return to our shed/garage/home base for a particular tool or ingredient. So the closer that home base is to YOUR home the quicker we can get the thing and get back to work. Or if Home Base is 50 km away most painters will figure out a less effective way that doesn’t use the special tool. It’s a small but important advantage to using local painters. 5. Painters near me for local traffic vs Sydney traffic! I’m told Sydney traffic is not the worst in the world, but it can be pretty bad. Especially if weird things like rain happen (I’m being sarcastic). Sydney is a massive city and I don’t understand how one painter can cover all of it and have any time left to work. And sometimes even a small traffic problem/flood/new construction can prevent your painter from getting through. The advantage with a local painter is that they have less chance of being delayed and YOU can be sure that they turn up at the same time EVERY day. 6. Painters near me … who really aren’t near you. Bonus tip. I’ve noticed when you search ‘painters near me’ on Google you’ll get a whole bunch of large painting networks who will happily service Mosman and The Lower North Shore suburbs, but are in no way local painters. (I just did a Google search and for “painters near Mosman”. Out of 19 results on the first page only 2 could be called anything like local painters (The Tidy Painter was one of those two!). The rest are either large businesses (who will go anywhere from Wollongong to Newcastle) or large directories who let all comers list the suburbs they’d like to be listed for. For all the reasons above just be careful you are actually talking to a true local painter!

But fear not. There are ways of getting a discount on Dulux paint. Read on ...
Also please note, the following is based on my experience as a professional interior painter. I've tried a lot of different paints but by no means all of them. I've decided that most paints in the Dulux range have the right combination of quality, price, and availability for the work I DO.
Cheap Dulux Paint - Bunnings
1. Buy Dulux at Bunnings.
Massive buying power means that Bunnings can sell Dulux for less than most competitors. Bunnings is everywhere so it’s a convenient choice too. But wait! There’s more!
2A. Get yourself a Bunnings PowerPass discount card – Part A
This card gives you 5% discount on paint. If you have an ABN (Australian Business Number) in some sort of trade you can buy Dulux paint for 5% less. Your trade doesn’t even have to be painting. AND I’ve heard rumours that having an ABN in ANY business, trade or not, can work. It’s worth a try.
https://www.bunnings.com.au/trade/powerpass
2B. Get yourself a Bunnings PowerPass discount card – Part B
Bunnings website says the following:
“Selected organisations and small businesses across a range of sectors and industries such as facilities management, aged care, education, manufacturing and government where building, maintenance and repair work is frequently carried out. If you are unsure whether you qualify for PowerPass in your industry, or you want to understand your options, you can discuss this with a member of our Bunnings Trade Organisations team at
Email: organisations@bunnings.com.au
Again worth a try.
2C. Get yourself a Bunnings PowerPass discount card – Part C
Owner builders can have one. You'll have to quote your owner builder licence number.
These seem like fairly broad ranges to try. Basically Bunnings seem Ok to give the 5% discount on paint (using the PowerPass card) to pretty much any business, sole trader or Not-For-Profit that does some sort of construction/repair/maintenance … even if it’s only sometimes!
But .... there’s a BUT.
As a professional painter I buy nearly all of my Dulux whites, pre-mixed colours, and primers at Bunnings. BUT when it comes to MIXED COLOURS, I’m very sorry to say I’ve just given up on Bunnings (By that I mean any Dulux colour that has to have tint added to the base can to achieve the colour I want). Why?
I’ve had 4 wrongly mixed colours in 18 months. Each one I assumed was correct and it wasn’t until I started a wall or opened the can onsite that I saw the mistake. And so did my client, so I looked like a fool.
Now this is just MY EXPERIENCE. Maybe I've just been unlucky. And I do buy a lot of paint so the odds of an occasional stuff up are higher. And the Bunnings people do cheerfully replace the wrong colour with the right one. BUT 4 times is just too much for me. You know, time is money!!! And that’s the reason I buy ALL my mixed colour Dulux paint at a chain of speciality paint stores called Inspirations Paint.

Cheap Dulux Paint - Inspirations paint
Paint is all these guys do and they are very good with advice, service and … giving me the right colour!!!
Their pricing is on average 5% higher than Bunnings standard price. But if you join their Inspirations Paint Club, you can get a 5% discount on paint, bringing you back to Bunnings standard low price. You also get 10% discount on brushes, tape, drop sheets etc.

You also get more specialised paint advice and (in my experience anyway) THE RIGHT FLIPPING COLOUR EVERY TIME!
So, there you have it. Dulux is a very good paint brand, and is therefore expensive, but with a bit of effort you can buy it for a wee bit less. Good luck!
Their pricing is on average 5% higher than Bunnings standard price. But if you join their Inspirations Paint Club, you can get a 5% discount on paint, bringing you back to Bunnings standard low price. You also get 10% discount on brushes, tape, drop sheets etc.

What is the best brand of interior wall paint in 2022?
 | Hi, I'm Tony Richardson AKA The Tidy Painter. I'm an expert at fixing cracks and peeling paint on interior walls and ceilings because thats all I do. Usually these cracks etc. occur in older homes. If you live on Sydney's Lower North Shore and I sound like the sort of person you need, we should talk. (Actually, even if you're not in my service area, there's probably heaps of useful info. Have a look. It's free!) Have a look around my website for all the info you'll need - colour suggestions, prices, previous work, even a video! CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO |
Wall cracks or ceiling cracks freak some people out! Don’t worry. If you can’t fit your hand into the crack you are usually ok. But there are different kinds of wall and ceiling crack. So there are different kinds of repairs materials for each one.
All of the suggested crack repair materials listed below are tried and tested by me. I’ve also tried cheaper versions thinking, what’s the diff? Oh, there’s a diff! In the end I’ve returned to the more expensive market leaders and I’ll explain why.

Wall and Ceiling crack fix 1 - Selleys No More Gaps
This stuff is perfect way to FIX CONVEX WALL AND CEILING CRACKS. Eg. Wall meets cornice, cornice meets ceiling, wall meets skirting board etc.
HOW? – Scrape out any loose or flaky bits. With a CAULKING GUN push a thin bead of No More Gaps along the crack. NOTE: Push don’t pull the gun along. Pushing forces No More Gaps into the gap, where pulling doesn’t.
WHY? – No More Gaps sets in about half an hour (longer if it’s really thick).It can easily be painted with oil or water based paint. It’s also flexible and can take some movement.
ISSUES? – Selleys No More Gaps SHRINKS. IT is great for many CONVEX cracks and can be topped up if the shrinkage is noticeable. But if you are filling a crack in a flat surface No More Gaps will shrink and show even after painting.
OTHER BRANDS? – There are many cheaper alternatives. The generic name for this material is CAULK. But I’ve found the others to be too runny or too thick. Selleys No More Gaps, like Goldilocks, is just right.

Wall and Ceiling crack fix 2 - Selleys Spacfilla
This stuff is perfect way to FILL SMALL DEEP HOLES/DRILL HOLES where you might have removed a picture hook.
HOW? – If you removed a picture hook, blow the dust out, and using the little plastic blade supplied, fill the hole to slightly proud (above) the wall surface. When dry, sand the repair and paint.
WHY? – Spacfilla dries in 15 to 30 minutes, depending on depth which is nice but the best part is that it DOES NOT SHRINK. This means only one application is needed and its pretty fast. Also no primer is needed. Two top coats will hide this repair for ever. Another advantage is that if your Spacfilla dries in its tub a few drops of water bring it back to life!
ISSUES? – There’s always a down side. Spacfilla is very soft. Usually this is not a problem. But it can’t be re-drilled.
OTHER BRANDS? – Most other/cheaper brands of fast drying filler either slump or are too crumbly or dry too hard. There may be alternatives that are as good but I haven’t found one yet.

Wall and Ceiling crack fix 3 - Selleys Tradies Bog
This filler is a good way to FIX HOLES, CRACKS OR BIG CHIPS THAT NEED A HARD REPAIR. Eg.picture hook holes that need redrilling, doors, windows, timber, and corners that get a bit of wear.
WHY? – Selleys Tradies Bog sets HARD! As it dries it can be carved. Or when fully set can be sanded or even sawn like wood. Also it needs no priming before painting.
HOW? – Bog is a chemically set filler created by mixing two parts that react and harden very quickly. It can be pressed into holes just like spacfiller, or shaped to re-build a piece that has been chipped of the corner of a wall or door. Because it sets so fast (5 minutes) I find building up layers works best. It can be sanded within half an hour but I’ve found best results by leaving it overnight.
ISSUES? – Fast setting is a blessing and a curse. The best approach is to gradually build up the desired profile by mixing small amounts one by one. Being a chemical reaction unsurprisingly there is a bit of a strong smell for a while. And compared to all the other crack fillers on this list Bog is quite expensive.
OTHER BRANDS? – I’ve tried alternative/cheaper brands and found the main problem was slump. I’m filling a hole in the wall which looks fine but over an hour it starts to slid or slump. I went back to the more expensive and reliable Selleys Tradies Bog.

Wall and Ceiling crack fix 4 - Skim and Strip
 |  |
This solution is a process using skim coat (smooth wall plaster) and a reinforcing strip (like a bandage). Skim and strip is the way to FIX LONG CRACKS ON THE FLAT PARTS OF WALLS AND CEILINGS. It’s a bit of a process but when finished is invisible and give the crack its best chance of lasting.
WHY? – The reinforcing tape (paper, fibre glass mesh, or fibre glass matt (Fibre Fuse) – which I prefer) gives a strong tensile aspect to this repair. The skim coat (which is usually premixed plaster and other ingredients) gives a super smooth hiding effect to this repair.
HOW –
1. Apply a (6 inch/15cm) strip of skim along the crack. Cut a length of fibre fuse tape and press this into the skim with a plasterers blade. Smooth everything out as much as possible. Wait 24 hours.
2. Scrape any high parts of the now dry skim. Apply a wider strip (8 inch/20cm) of wet skim over everything and smooth this down. Wait another 24 hours.
3. Lightly sand the dry repair. I us a sander attached to a vacuum cleaner because there will be a lot of dust!
4. SEAL the repair with either diluted paint or Zinsser Peel stop – which I prefer. If you don’t seal the repair any painting over the top will peel off within months.
ISSUES?
1. This is a difficult craft and it takes many attempts to get right.
2. Its very dusty unless you use a vacuum.
3. Sometimes you are fighting against a house that is moving around on it’s foundations. No amount of skim and tape will win that fight! I tell people this crack repair will give your home its BEST CHANCE.
OTHER BRANDS? – I use BORAL FINAL COAT. It’s a pre mixed skim that works well. GYPROCK have a similar product called GYPROCK TOPPING COAT and its fine too. With the tape, the main thing is to find one called Fibre Fuse (rather than paper or fibre glass mesh). This tape is a fibre glass mat – a lot like the stuf they make fibre glass yachts out of. Its very strong and hides better that the other options.

Wall and Ceiling fix 5 - Sikaflex Pro
This is the stuff you get when the crack or gap is between two MOVING MATERIALS. Say a wooden skirting board against floor boards that move a lot.
WHY? – SIKAFLEX PRO gives maximum springiness or stretchability. It can go on slightly damp surfaces and when set is waterproof. But unlike similar SILICONE, this product can be painted.
HOW? – Apply two parallel lines of masking tape with the desired filler gap between. With a caulking gun push the filler along the gap. With a rag dipped in turps smooth the filled gap. Then IMMEDIATELY remove the masking tape.
ISSUES? – Need to mask, clean up with turps, a bit smelly, more expensive than No More Gaps, and a bit tricky to apply.
OTHER BRANDS? – In the past there were paintable, water-based caulks (No More Gaps) OR very NON-paintable, oil-based Silicone. SIKAFLEX PRO is a great compromise between the two and similar products are coming on the market all the time. I haven’t tried them all but I find Sikaflex Pro to work well in the ‘paintable, very flexible, water proof, caulk gun’ filler.

House painting is a labour-intensive job. And labour in Australia is relatively expensive.
So, unless your surname is Packer, it makes sense to think carefully about what needs to be painted in your home and what doesn’t.
I’ve visited a few homes where the home owner waves airily at the whole interior and says, “Give me a quote to paint everything.” And then they get a shock when the cost to paint everything hits.
If you want talk to me (The Tidy Painter) about fixing your cracks and painting your walls and ceilings (and you live on Sydney's Lower North Shore) click here.
So here are 3 tips to help not break the bank and still transform your home. I’m happy to discuss any of these with you.
1. Do you really want ALL rooms painted or just the ones your friends see? By NOT painting the bedrooms in a 4 bedroom home you can save about 30% of the cost.
2. Does it ALL really have to be done in one hit? I’ve painted quite a few interiors, in several stages, over several months. My clients paid as they earned enough money to pay for each stage. Kind of old fashioned but it works!
3. Do you really need walls, trim AND ceiling to be painted? Let me answer that. You DO need your walls and trim painted. But sometimes the ceiling is pretty good. Walls and trim get bashed around and fail much faster. NOT painting ceilings can save up to 10%.
NOW, here are 3 more tips that save money … but will leave you angry and feeling ripped off. I will NOT work this way. But some painters will.
4. Do you really need to prepare the surfaces? YES!!!!
Skimping on surface preparation is the number one way cheaper painters can be cheap. The ‘minimal preparation scam’ works so well because it saves a fortune - 15 to 30%. And the surface looks fine … for a few months . Then it starts to peel and you are worse off than before.
One guy quoted a badly cracked interior at a quarter of my quote. So the client saved 75%!!!! Happy days! Until the whole job failed 3 months later.
5. Do you really need to protect your things? YES!!!
The second way El Cheapo painters save money is by not taking the time to protect your floors, furniture, lights, wardrobe contents, cat etc. A good interior painter will apply masking tape along the timber floors or carpet, then a wider strip of protective plastic or cardboard, then thick drop-sheets. All small items will be moved and big furniture (and hanging lights) are wrapped in plastic. A cheap painter will kick a single drop sheet along the wall as he paints. He might even catch some of the spilled paint this way … but not all of it.
Not bothering to protect your home will save between 15% and 30%. But what will it cost to replace your best clothes, furniture or carpet when they are splattered with paint?
6. Do you really need quality materials? YES!!!
Here’s where it gets tricky. Cheap painters have cottoned on to the idea that clients know Dulux is probably the best quality paint brand, so they wave the Dulux cans around and give the impression of being serious players.
Using Dulux (over cheaper brands) only adds a maximum of 1% to most jobs (Because as noted above, labour is the big cost)
The question should be, what went UNDER the Dulux paint? What plaster, fillers, primers? What is the foundation gripping to the walls, doors and ceilings that the lovely Dulux paint sits on?
By now you will have guessed that crummy painters use cheap, nasty, or NO plaster, fillers or primers. And you’ll only find out when the good paint peels off.
(Another exasperating story: Cheap painters did a dud job on a lady’s bathroom. I quoted to remove the peeling paint, prime the area properly and then … paint it. Her husband said no, he wanted to go cheap again. Ayah! Maybe I’ll be asked to be the THIRD painter. Who knows.)
So that’s it …
3 ways to save money that still gives a high quality, long life job.
And 3 ways to save money that result in a bad job and damaged possesions, then the cost of rectification, then the cost of painting properly.
