Most of our work as painters in Surry Hills is on Victorian terraces and workers' cottages, converted warehouses, and the apartments that have been built among them.
Large parts of the suburb are heritage conservation areas. Repainting in colours that suit the building usually does not need approval, but painting bare brick or making a big change to a facade can need City of Sydney approval. We check before quoting.
Terraces here sit hard against each other with no side access, so they are painted from the front and the rear lane. Warehouse conversions are the opposite problem: high ceilings and tall walls that need proper access equipment, priced in at the quote.
Every job is quoted on site with one fixed price in writing. We also work in Darlinghurst, Redfern, Paddington and Moore Park.
Victorian terraces and workers' cottages, converted warehouses and factories, and newer apartment buildings. Large parts of the suburb are heritage conservation areas.
Narrow streets and rear lanes, terraces built hard against each other with no side access, and very little parking.
Terraces are painted from the street and the lane, with old paint prepared with lead in mind. Warehouse conversions need high-access equipment and the right primer for brick, steel and timber.

Mosi and the team did a fantastic job on my interior paint job. Mosi advised on paints and finishes, and was extremely flexible in timing around other trades. I will absolutely be using BrushUp Painting again!
I highly recommend BrushUp Painting. Mosi and the team painted the exterior of my house which has an awkward shape and was extremely difficult to access the upper level. They also repaired some rotten timberwork so saved me having to get a carpenter in beforehand. Very happy with the end result and the price.
Mosi and the team did an outstanding job painting our house after full renovation, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. The team handled a range of challenging surfaces with real skill and attention to detail, and the finish looks clean, sharp, and high-quality throughout. It’s clear they take pride in their work and know exactly what they’re doing.
What really stood out was their professionalism from start to finish. They were reliable, easy to deal with, and left the place spotless once the job was done—no mess, no stress. If you’re looking for painters who deliver excellent workmanship and actually care about the final outcome, I’d highly recommend BrushUp Painting.
Stripped back to bare render, then rebuilt and repainted. Same porch, same angle.
Houses and businesses, inside and out. Every service below is available across the Eastern Suburbs.
Yes. We work from the street and the rear lane, plan parking and deliveries before the job starts, and keep the footpath clear while we work.
Yes. High walls and ceilings are reached with scaffold towers or platforms, which are listed in the quote. Exposed brick, steel beams and timber each get the right primer.
It is a choice to make carefully, because painted brick is very hard to take back. If you go ahead, the brick is cleaned and sealed first so the paint does not soak in unevenly.
Yes. Shopfronts and cafes are usually painted after close so you do not lose a trading day.
Terraces from the 1800s usually have lead in the early coats. It is safe while it is sound and painted over, but it has to be prepared with care so the dust does not spread through the house.
Every job is priced on site. As a guide, a three-bedroom interior starts from $5,000 and a full exterior from $4,000. The quote is free and the price is fixed.
