Servicing South Yarra, VICSouth Yarra House Painters | Northern Star Painting
Apartment, terrace and boutique commercial painters in South Yarra.
South Yarra runs from Victorian terraces off Toorak Road to high-rise apartments and boutique retail, so access, parking and building rules matter as much as the paint. We plan all of it into the quote, work to strata and after-hours requirements, and leave shared spaces spotless.

South Yarra painting FAQs
Do you paint houses in South Yarra?
Yes — South Yarra 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 South Yarra?
South Yarra apartment interiors commonly range $3,000 to $9,000; terrace facades sit between $4,500 and $12,000, and commercial work is quoted per square metre. 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 South Yarra?
Apartments are often two to four days. Terrace facades run three to six days, and commercial fit-outs can be scheduled after hours.
Do you work on historic and heritage homes in South Yarra?
Yes. A large share of our South Yarra 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.
