Painters in Potts Point, Precision Finishes for Sydney’s Premier Apartment Suburb
Potts Point’s apartment buildings, art deco towers, and heritage-listed terraces demand painters who understand the precision required for high-end residential work. Brushworks delivers the flawless interiors and impeccable exteriors this suburb expects.
Potts Point Properties Demand a Higher Standard of Painting
Potts Point is home to some of Sydney’s most desirable apartment buildings, the art deco towers of Macleay Street and Darlinghurst Road, the converted Victorian terraces on the quieter side streets, and the luxury contemporary buildings overlooking Rushcutters Bay. These are not buildings where an average painter produces acceptable results.
The art deco buildings in particular present specific challenges: original plaster cornices and ceiling medallions that must be painted without losing detail; curved walls in some buildings that require careful roller technique; and the high expectations of residents and owners corporations who know quality when they see it. Brushworks has built its reputation on exactly this work.

What Potts Point Clients Say About Brushworks
“Our Macleay Street art deco apartment has original 1930s cornices and ceiling roses. Brushworks painted them without filling a single detail, you can still see every profile perfectly. The flat ceiling colour against the white detail looks spectacular. Exceptional work.”
“I manage investment properties across Potts Point. Brushworks is the only painter I trust with vacant apartment turnarounds. Fast, clean, quality finish every time, and the documentation they provide for bond and condition disputes is invaluable.”
“We used Brushworks for a pre-sale repaint of our Potts Point apartment. They were in and out in three days, the colour advice was perfect, and the property sold $120,000 above reserve. I’d attribute a significant part of that to the presentation Brushworks delivered.”

Common Questions About Painting in Potts Point
Can you paint art deco apartments without damaging the original plasterwork?
Yes, preserving original art deco plasterwork detail requires thin-bodied paint applied with appropriate brush technique, not a thick film of standard wall paint. Our painters are experienced with art deco interiors across Potts Point’s Macleay Street buildings and understand how to paint cornices and ceiling roses without filling or obscuring original profiles. Contact us to discuss your property.
How long does it take to repaint a Potts Point apartment?
A standard one-bedroom apartment typically takes 1–2 days. A two-bedroom apartment with art deco cornices and ceiling detail takes 2–3 days. Larger apartments or those with significant preparation requirements may take longer. We confirm the timeline in writing when we quote so you can plan around it.
Do you work with strata committees in Potts Point?
Yes. We regularly provide quotes to Potts Point owners corporations for exterior building repaints and common area painting. We supply all required documentation, WHS plans, insurance certificates, colour schemes, and can present to the committee at meetings if required.
What’s the best way to freshen up an investment apartment for re-leasing?
For a rental turnaround, we focus on the areas that show the most wear, main walls, doors, door frames, and skirting boards. We patch nail holes, address any stains, and repaint in a neutral, durable washable finish. Most Potts Point investment apartments can be turned around in 1–2 days. We also provide photographic condition documentation.
Is Brushworks able to paint an occupied Potts Point apartment?
Yes, we work in occupied apartments regularly. We use low-VOC Dulux products to minimise odour, work room by room to allow continued use of the apartment, protect all furniture and floors, and clean up daily. Most residents find the process much less disruptive than they expect. Get in touch to discuss your situation.
