Servicing Kew, VICKew House Painters | Northern Star Painting
Premium interior and feature wall painting across Kew.

Kew mixes stately period homes with sharp architectural renovations, and both need a painter who can cut a clean line and hold a flat finish across large wall planes. We specify premium Dulux and Haymes systems, protect finished joinery and floors, and inspect every surface in natural light before handover.

Kew painting FAQs
Do you paint houses in Kew?
Yes — Kew is part of our regular service area and we work there year round on interiors, exteriors, roofs and commercial projects. Quotes include an on-site inspection so the scope reflects your actual surfaces, not a phone estimate.
How much does house painting cost in Kew?
Kew interiors typically range $5,000 to $15,000; period exterior restoration is generally quoted from $12,000 after inspection. Every job is individually quoted after we inspect the property — condition, access and the number of coats required change the number more than the size of the house does.
How long does a typical painting project take in Kew?
A full Kew interior usually takes five to ten days; heritage exteriors run two to three weeks.
Do you work on historic and heritage homes in Kew?
Yes. A large share of our Kew work is period property — Victorian and Edwardian facades, ornate timber detail, lead-safe preparation and traditional profiles. We hand-prepare delicate mouldings rather than machine-sanding them, match existing colours and sheens where you want the original look kept, and use coating systems suited to older, breathable substrates.
