Polite, competent, very clean, preparation is well done. Living Colours and Paper have been to our house twice, for both inside and outside work and have done a meticulous job both times: We are very satisfied with their work. Just an overall great job and very professional people.

FAQs

What information do I need to provide you with for a competitive quote?

The best way to get an accurate quote is with an inspection. Our expert Painters have a trained eye to let you know what is happening with your paint and this also gives us a chance to get a better idea of the overall finish you would like for your job.

Why should I hire you over another business?

ADVICE WHEN COMPARING QUOTES: At Living Colours Painting & Paperhanging we are confident that the peace of mind gained by using a reputable company far outweighs any small cost savings you might find. However, should you wish to shop around we have prepared a checklist below to help you protect your home and ensure you are comparing ‘apples to apples.’  GUARANTEE – Living Colours offer a 200% guarantee on our work. If you are not happy on completion, we will redo the work (at our expense) to your satisfaction. Should you still not be satisfied that the work has been done as quoted, then we will pay one of our competitors to redo it for you. Check that any companies you deal with are willing to stand by their work.  PAINT – Most manufacturers have 3 tiers of paint quality, a budget, standard and premium range. Living Colours only uses the Dulux Premium Range unless specified. Make sure any other company you consider specifies premium paint from a well-known brand in their quotation.  QUOTING SYSTEM – Ensure that you read the specifics of the quotation carefully and that you are comparing ‘apples for apples’ in areas such as coats, professional preparation, quality of paint, etc.  PRICE – Be wary as a cheaper price may reflect shortcuts, substandard preparation or workmanship or inferior materials, or may mean that the company does not pay certain overheads such as insurances.  ASSOCIATIONS – Living Colours is a member of the Master Painters Association and Dulux Accredited. Is the other company affiliated with credible industry bodies?  WARRANTY – Does the company offer a guarantee on workmanship? Living Colours guarantees their workmanship for at least 5 years.  INSURANCE – Does the company have Public Liability insurance (copy available on request) and workers compensation?  OH&S – Do all team members have a red card for building sites and follow OH&S protocol?  TEAM – Is there a professional team of experts to ensure a good quality job in a faster time frame?  ESTABLISHED – Living Colours has been operating in Australia for over 20 years with 32 years experience in the industry both here and in Europe. Has the other company been around for many years and likely to be around in the future?  OWNERSHIP – Are the owners committed to the business such as family owned or owner-run? Can you contact the owner directly should you have any queries or concerns?  ADVICE – Are all members of the team experienced enough to give you professional advice on both the technical and aesthetic aspects of the job?  ENVIRONMENT – Does the company dispose of products in a safe way and maintain a clean worksite?  PRESENTATION – Is the company well presented & courteous & likely to look after your home?

Do you offer a guarantee on the work that you carry out?

YES! Living Colours offer a 200% Guarantee. Our painters take pride in their work. Hearing the customers satisfaction with the completed project is what we strive for. If you're not happy with the completed work, we will come back at our own expense to ensure the job is done to the standard you requested.
