Kew is full of period homes, heritage weatherboards, and character properties that need more than a standard repaint. A1 Premier Painting, based in Box Hill South, has spent years working across Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, and Kew is one of the areas we know best. We take on house painting, interior painting, exterior painting, and commercial jobs, from a single feature wall to a full property repaint. Old plaster, timber trims, rendered brick each surface behaves differently, and we treat them that way. If you’re after painters in Kew who won’t rush the prep work, give us a call.

Not every home in Kew is the same, and that’s the point. Victorian terraces, Edwardian cottages, and newer townhouses all need different prep before a brush even goes near the wall. Our house painters Kew clients call on take the time to check what they’re working with first flaking paint, damp patches, timber rot so the quote actually matches the job, not a guess.
Walls, ceilings, trims we cover all of it, and we protect your floors and furniture while we’re at it. Some jobs are one room, others are the whole house. Either way, our interior painters Kew homeowners recommend showing up on time, keep the site tidy, and don’t leave a mess behind when they’re done.
Melbourne weather doesn’t do exterior paint any favours. That’s why our exterior painters Kew rely on proper washing, sanding, and priming before a weather-resistant coat goes on skipping that step is how paint jobs fail early. Heritage properties get extra attention around original timber detailing, because that’s usually what makes the home worth preserving in the first place.
Businesses can’t afford to shut down for a repaint, so timing matters as much as the paint itself. Our commercial painters Kew team plans around your hours – early mornings, weekends, whatever keeps your doors open and your customers unbothered.
Offices, retail fit-outs, strata common areas we’ve worked across all of them in Kew. Commercial-grade coatings hold up better under foot traffic and daily wear, so that’s what we use. And every quote is set out clearly before work starts, so there’s nothing sprung on you halfway through.
Detail work separates a decent paint job from a good one. As a painter and decorator Kew clients bring in for finer jobs, we handle skirting boards, architraves, doors, and feature walls with the same attention most painters save for the big surfaces. Sharp lines matter here; it’s usually the first thing people notice.
Being based in Box Hill South means Kew, Kew East, Hawthorn, Balwyn, and Camberwell are all close by no long drive, no scheduling headaches. If you’ve typed “painter near me Kew” into Google, chances are we’re already working somewhere nearby.
Turning up when we say we will, communicating clearly, finishing the job properly, that's what most people actually want from a Kew painter, and it's not complicated. Heritage overlays can affect what exterior colours are allowed in parts of Kew, and we're happy to talk through that before anything gets locked in.
Most of our work in Kew comes from word of mouth, which says more than any ad could. People pass on the name of reliable interior painters Kew because the paint job held up no early peeling, no patchy coverage, just a finish that lasted.

Tidy work sites and painters who actually answer their phone
Every painter in Kew will tell you they do good work. What most won’t tell you is exactly how they do it. Here’s what actually happens when you book with A1 Premier Painting from the first call through to the final walkthrough.

We don't quote off photos or rough measurements over the phone. We come to your Templestowe property, walk through the space with you, and assess it properly. This usually takes thirty to forty-five minutes depending on the size of the job.

We offer practical colour consultation as part of our service. We'll talk you through finish options like flat, low-sheen, semi-gloss, and where each one works best and help you land on a combination that suits your home rather than just a trending palette that looks good online. .

This is where most painting jobs either hold up for years or fall apart within twelve months. Preparation takes time and it's not the most exciting part of the process, but it's the most important. We don't rush this step. A proper prep job is why our work lasts.

Once the surfaces are ready, we get into the painting. We apply the number of coats specified in your quote, using the products we agreed on. Premium paints, the right rollers and brushes for each surface type, and consistent technique across the whole job. We keep the site clean throughout. Drop sheets stay down, lids go back on paint tins,.

When the job is done, we walk through the finished work with you before we pack up and leave. We want you to see every surface in proper light and raise anything that doesn't look right to you on the spot. We don't consider a job finished until you're satisfied with what you're looking at.

We remove all masking tape, drop sheets, and materials. Any paint tins or waste are taken off-site. We leave your home or commercial space in the same condition we found it just with fresh paint on the walls. No mess left behind. No follow-up calls asking when we're coming to finish.
