Overview
What to expect
Orange summers push past 35 degrees. Winter mornings sit below zero. Exterior paint in the Central West works harder than anywhere on the coast, and the preparation has to match. We schedule exterior work around the weather, not against it, because a coat applied in the wrong conditions will fail inside two years regardless of the brand on the tin.
What is included
- High-pressure wash and scrape of all loose material
- Timber repair and replacement where needed
- Weather-scheduled application for optimal curing
- UV-resistant exterior coatings rated for inland conditions
- Gutters, fascia, eaves and downpipes included
- 12-month workmanship guarantee
Why people in the Central West choose Murrays Painting
Over 50 years in the trade
Over fifty years in the trade. There is very little John has not already seen go wrong on a house, which is mostly what experience buys you.
John quotes it and supervises it
He prices the job himself and checks the preparation before a topcoat goes on, with Ron running the crew on site. The same two people from the quote to the last coat.
Preparation comes first
Most of the work happens before any colour appears. Sanding, filling, priming and sealing are what decide whether the finish lasts three years or fifteen.
Dulux and Porters materials
Premium paint on every job, with oil-based sealers on woodwork. Cheaper products cost less on the invoice and more on the repaint.
12-month workmanship guarantee
Twelve months on labour and materials. If something is not right in that time, John comes back and sorts it out.
Licensed, insured, reviewed
NSW licence 155166C, public liability and workers compensation, and a five star rating on Google from customers across the Central West.

How it works
Built to withstand the Central West
Exterior painting in regional NSW means dealing with UV, frost and everything in between. Our process ensures proper adhesion and long-lasting protection.
Property inspection
John checks every external surface — weatherboards, render, trims, fascia — and notes any repairs needed.
Wash down and prepare
Every exterior starts with a wash, because paint will not bond to mould, chalked oxide or the dust that settles between rains. Then scraping, sanding, filling and priming bare timber. This is where longevity starts.
Weather-timed application
We schedule around the weather. Exterior Dulux coatings applied in the right conditions for proper curing.
Final inspection
Walk-around with you to check every elevation. Touch-ups completed, site left tidy, gutters and paths cleaned.

We recently had both the interior and exterior of our home painted, and the results were outstanding. The attention to detail was exceptional, and the quality of the workmanship really shows in the finished product.

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.
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.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
John schedules exterior work to follow the seasons and the weather rather than the calendar. If conditions turn he waits and moves the crew to interior work, and keeps you in the loop while that happens. Paint put on in the wrong conditions does not last, so waiting is the cheaper option.
There is usually a fair bit of wood repair on older places. Where it is past repairing, John brings a carpenter in rather than filling over something that will come back.
No. John comes out, looks at the job with you and gives you an estimate on site, a written quote, or both. He handles every quote himself rather than sending someone else. On jobs far enough out that they need travel or a night away, those costs are quoted as part of the job so you can see them.
Every job carries a 12-month workmanship guarantee. John inspects at the preparation stage, which is where most problems are still cheap to fix, and again at the end. If something needs attention after that, call him.
Around $500 excluding GST. Below that the setup and travel usually cost more than the work is worth, and John will tell you straight rather than quote you something silly.
It depends on the surfaces more than the size, which is why there is no price list here. John prices per room, per hour, per square metre or per day depending on what suits the job, plus materials. The only accurate answer comes from him seeing it, and that visit is free.
