Preparation first

The work you don’t see is why it lasts.

“We don’t simply cover problems with paint.”

We inspect the surfaces first and prepare them for the condition your home is actually in, so the finish looks better and lasts longer.

  1. Filling cracks and holesCracks, dents and holes filled flush before painting.
  2. Sanding rough or damaged surfacesSo the new coat goes on smooth.
  3. Removing loose and flaking paintPainting over failing paint only hides it for a while.
  4. Priming bare or repaired areasSo the topcoat bonds properly.
  5. Sealing gaps where appropriateFor a clean, finished line at the joins.

Meet the founder

Marinos Hadjipapas

Founder, The Home Painter Newcastle

20+years in painting & property maintenance

Familyrun and Australian-owned

Marinos brings more than twenty years in painting and property maintenance to every job. In August 2021 he founded The Home Painter Newcastle to do the work the way he believes it should be done.

The aim is simple: dependable painting, proper preparation and results that show real care. As a small, family-run business, Marinos stays involved from the first quote to the final coat, so you always know who’s looking after your home.

He enjoys solving problems, too. Old weatherboards, hidden timber rot and badly cracked walls are exactly the kind of work he likes to take on.
