What to Expect During a Professional Painting Project

12 Mar

If you’ve never hired a professional painting team before, you might not know what to expect. At Duffield Group, our goal is to take the stress and uncertainty out of the process and make your painting project a smooth, rewarding experience — from the first quote to the final brushstroke.

Here’s a breakdown of what the journey looks like when you choose us:

1. Consultation & Quotation

It all starts with a free consultation. We’ll visit your site to assess surfaces, discuss your goals, and identify any repairs or preparation needed. Based on this, we provide a detailed, fixed-price quote, so you know exactly what’s involved.

2. Colour & Product Selection

Need help choosing the perfect palette or finish? No worries — we offer expert colour advice, tailored to your style, lighting, and property type. We also use premium, low-VOC paints suitable for Sydney’s climate and Australian standards.

3. Professional Preparation

Great painting starts with great prep. We handle everything from:

Patching holes and cracks
Sanding rough or uneven surfaces
Priming where necessary
Protecting floors, furniture, and fittings with high-quality drop sheets and tape

4. Painting Execution

Our experienced team works with efficiency and care, ensuring sharp lines, smooth coats, and clean finishes — whether it's a full interior, feature wall, or exterior facade. We respect your space and aim to minimise disruption throughout.

5. Final Inspection & Clean-Up

We conduct a walk-through with you to ensure every detail meets your expectations. We then clean up the site completely, leaving you with nothing but a beautifully transformed space.

6. Aftercare & Advice

You’ll receive simple maintenance tips to keep your new paintwork looking its best — and we’re always available if you have questions down the track.
