Dupaint provides professional painting services across Stanmore, NSW 2048, from heritage terrace restorations on Cavendish Street to modern apartment repaints near Stanmore station. We handle interior, exterior and commercial painting for homes and businesses throughout the suburb and the surrounding Inner West.
Dupaint has been painting homes and businesses across Sydney since 1998. Our Inner West team works from our Glebe office on Bridge Road, less than 10 minutes from Stanmore. That proximity means we know the housing stock well: the Victorian terraces along Albany Road, the Federation semis near Stanmore Public School, and the newer apartment buildings around the station precinct.
Every project is backed by our Dulux Accredited credentials, Master Painters Australia membership, HIA membership, full $20 million public liability insurance, and a 5-year workmanship warranty. Our licence number is 278000C.
Stanmore’s streetscape is defined by its Victorian terraces and Federation-era semis, many dating back to the 1880s–1910s. These properties require more than a coat of paint, they need proper assessment and preparation before any colour goes on the wall.
The most common issues we deal with on older Stanmore homes include deteriorated lead paint on timber trims and window frames, multiple paint layers that have cracked and lifted over decades, damp-affected plaster on party walls and below-ground rooms, and original colour schemes that need careful matching for heritage compliance. We are licensed for safe lead paint removal and follow all NSW SafeWork requirements. Where heritage colour matching is required, we work with the Dulux Heritage range and can coordinate with your local council requirements in the Inner West Council LGA.
Our preparation process for heritage properties typically involves full scraping and sanding of all loose material, chemical stripping where needed, timber repair or replacement of rotted sections, sealing and priming with appropriate heritage-grade primers, and three coats of premium Dulux or Taubmans paint. This level of preparation is what separates a paint job that lasts 10+ years from one that starts peeling within two.
Whether you are refreshing a single room or repainting an entire house, our interior painting service covers walls, ceilings, doors, window frames, skirting boards and architraves. We move and protect your furniture, lay drop sheets throughout, and leave your home clean at the end of every working day.
For Stanmore’s older homes with high ceilings and detailed cornicing, we take extra care with cutting in around ornamental plaster and ceiling roses. If your rooms feel dark or dated, common in south-facing terraces along streets like Kingston Road and Cambridge Street, a lighter paint scheme paired with the right finish can transform the space without structural work.
We offer free colour consultations and work with premium Australian paint brands including Dulux, Taubmans, and Resene to match your preferences and budget. For kitchen cabinets and joinery, we use hard-wearing enamel finishes that stand up to daily wear.
Stanmore’s position close to Parramatta Road means exterior paintwork on many homes is exposed to higher levels of road grime and exhaust residue. Properties along the suburb’s western edge near the rail corridor also cop additional vibration and soot. We use premium, weather-resistant exterior paints specifically formulated for these conditions, including Dulux Weathershield for rendered facades and Dulux Aquanamel for exterior timber.
Exterior work covers facades, eaves, gutters, fascia boards, downpipes, window frames, front doors, verandah posts, balustrades and fences. For double-storey terraces and semis, we carry full scaffolding and height safety equipment, no job is too high or too tight.
The apartment stock around Stanmore station and along Stanmore Road includes both newer builds and older walk-up blocks. We handle individual apartment repaints, whether you are refreshing before a sale, preparing for new tenants, or simply updating your own living space, as well as full strata painting projects covering common areas, hallways, stairwells and building exteriors.
For strata work, we coordinate directly with your strata manager and provide staged scheduling to minimise disruption to residents.
Painting costs depend on the size of your property, its condition, the number of coats needed, and how much preparation work is involved. As a general guide for Stanmore properties:
