Painting in Dubbo
Why hire a local painter for Dubbo?
Dubbo is the largest regional city in western New South Wales, with a population over 40,000, and sits about two and a half hours north-west of Orange. The Macquarie River runs through the city, and the Taronga Western Plains Zoo precinct on the southern edge draws visitors year-round, with the surrounding residential area featuring well-maintained homes on larger blocks. The housing stock is genuinely varied. Older residential streets closer to the CBD have weatherboard and fibro homes from the 1940s through to the 1960s, while modern estates in areas like Delroy Park and Keswick feature brick veneer and rendered construction. The climate is harsh. Dubbo sits on the western plains where summer temperatures regularly push past 40 degrees, UV levels are punishing, and dust storms are not uncommon. Exterior coatings need to be specified carefully for those conditions. We take on Dubbo projects selectively, typically larger residential or commercial jobs where the scope justifies the travel. Accommodation, travel and meals are quoted as project costs alongside the standard rates.

What our clients say
We do not chase reviews. When clients take the time to leave one, it means something. Here is what they have to say.
Luke Hughes
I've used John and the team at Murrays Painting on several projects now and have always been very happy with their work. The quality is consistently high, they're punctual, reliable and communication is always great. As a builder, it's important to have trades you can trust, and I'd have no hesitation recommending Murrays Painting.
Belinda Scott
John and his team did an amazing job of a very complex project. Their quote was extremely reasonable compared to other quotes received. Their attention to detail throughout the project was impeccable. The work involved a total repaint, both externally and internally, of a very large timber double storey historic residence. The final magnificent result of their many months of labour are a reflection of their understanding and pride for their profession.
Annie Keledjian
John Murray's crew were excellent, very reliable, trustworthy and easy to have around my home. They did a fantastic job with the interior and exterior of my terrace house and finished the work on time and budget. I would highly recommend them and confidently refer them.
