About Our Strata Service

Sydney’s Strata Painting Specialists, Fully Managed

Brushworks delivers complete strata painting programmes for Sydney apartment buildings, body corporate properties, and common area repaints.

Our structured strata process handles every stage, from initial scope preparation to final sign-off, without pushing the coordination burden back onto the strata manager or building committee.

We work directly with strata committees, building managers, and owners corporations across Sydney’s inner city, preparing documentation for committee approval, scheduling work around building access requirements, and staging every project to keep common areas safe and accessible for residents throughout.

As a painting company that works with owners corporations, Brushworks treats every strata job as a managed project: a written scope of works, professional surface preparation and quality Dulux coatings chosen for the building.

  • Full written scope of works prepared for strata committee submission
  • Product data sheets and colour samples provided in approvable format
  • WHS risk assessments and safe work method statements as standard
  • Staging plans that keep corridors and building entrances accessible
  • After-hours and weekend scheduling for occupied strata buildings
  • Low-VOC Dulux products used in all occupied interior common areas
  • 5-year workmanship warranty on all strata painting work

    Interior painting of lobbies, lift lobbies, corridors, stairwells, and entry areas, staged to keep at least one access route open at all times, using low-VOC Dulux products in all occupied spaces.
  • Strata Committee Documentation

    We prepare a complete submission package for strata committee approval, written scope of works, Dulux product data sheets, colour samples, and WHS documentation in a format committees can act on quickly.
  • After-Hours & Weekend Scheduling

    Common area and exterior strata work is frequently scheduled after hours or over weekends to minimise disruption to residents and comply with building access restrictions. We coordinate all logistics in advance.
  • Surface Preparation & Repairs Before Painting

    Comprehensive preparation before any topcoat, including crack filling, skim coating, sanding, patching spalled render, and priming, ensures premium Dulux systems bond correctly and deliver lasting results.
  • Rolling Maintenance Programmes

    We work with strata managers to schedule rolling maintenance programmes, identifying sections due for repainting, staging multi-year exterior programmes, and providing written scope documentation for each stage.

What We Solve

Strata Painting Challenges, and How Brushworks Handles Them

Strata painting in Sydney carries logistical and compliance complexity that general painters are not equipped to manage. Brushworks is structured specifically for these challenges.

Strata committees require formal documentation before approving work

Most strata painting proposals fail at committee stage because they lack the written scope, product data, and cost breakdown committees need to make a compliant decision.

We prepare a complete strata submission package

Brushworks provides a written scope of works, Dulux product data sheets, colour samples, itemised pricing, and WHS documentation in a format strata committees can approve efficiently.

Occupied buildings cannot be disrupted during painting

Residents in strata buildings require that corridors remain safe and accessible, odour is minimised, and the work schedule is communicated clearly before it begins.

We stage work and communicate daily with building managers

Every strata project is staged to maintain accessible routes. We provide a written daily work schedule, use low-VOC interior products, and brief building managers before each phase begins.

Building access restrictions limit working windows

Lift bookings, loading zones, noise restrictions, and after-hours security requirements make strata painting logistics complex for painters unfamiliar with inner-city buildings.

We coordinate all building access before the project starts

Our team arranges lift bookings, loading zone permits, after-hours access passes, and building manager sign-off on access schedules before we arrive on site.

Large strata buildings require multiple contractors and lose accountability

When a strata building’s painting programme is split across subcontractors, workmanship consistency breaks down and warranty claims become impossible to manage.

One team, one warranty, one point of contact for the full programme

Brushworks completes all strata painting work with our own employed painters, no subcontractors, and issues a single 5-year written warranty covering the entire project scope.

How It Works

A Structured Five-Step Process for Sydney Strata Painting Projects

Every Brushworks strata project follows a structured process that gives strata committees, building managers, and owners corporations certainty at every stage.

Get a Strata Quote
  1. Step 1

    Site Inspection & Scope

    We inspect the building, assess all surfaces requiring painting, identify any repairs, and prepare a complete written scope of works with itemised pricing for each area.

  2. Step 2

    Strata Committee Submission

    We prepare the full strata committee submission package, scope, product data sheets, colour samples, WHS documents, and pricing, ready for the next committee meeting.

  3. Step 3

    Access & Scheduling

    Once approved, we coordinate lift bookings, loading zones, resident notifications, building manager sign-off, and any permit requirements for the building’s location.

  4. Step 4

    Staged Preparation & Painting

    Work is staged floor by floor or section by section, with thorough preparation before each phase. Premium Dulux products applied to the specified system with correct drying times between coats.

  5. Step 5

    Final Inspection & Warranty

    We complete a final walkthrough with the strata manager or building manager before leaving. A 5-year written workmanship warranty is issued on project completion.

Why Strata Managers Choose Brushworks

Every Credential Strata Buildings Require, Verified

Strata committees and building managers require specific accreditations, insurance certificates, and safety documentation before engaging any painting contractor. Brushworks provides all of them.

On an occupied building, reliable communication matters as much as the finish. Our experience with occupied strata buildings is why every project includes a written daily work schedule, staged access and a final walkthrough with the strata or building manager, protecting the building’s value with minimal disruption to residents.

  • Dulux Accredited Applicator

    Trained and assessed by Dulux to apply premium product systems, including interior low-VOC systems for occupied strata spaces and weatherproof exterior systems for building facades.

  • Master Painters Australia

    Full membership of Master Painters Australia. Membership requires demonstrated compliance with industry standards, an additional layer of accountability for strata committees and owners corporations.

  • Public Liability Insurance

    $20 million public liability and workers compensation coverage on every project. Certificates of currency are provided with every strata quote and available on request at any time.

  • Safety Documentation Ready

    Written WHS risk assessments and safe work method statements prepared for every strata project before work begins, meeting the requirements of Sydney CBD and inner-city building managers.

  • Written Workmanship Warranty

    A 5-year workmanship warranty issued on every completed strata project. If a defect in our workmanship appears within the warranty period, we return and rectify it at no cost.

  • No Subcontractors

    The painters who quote your strata building are the painters who complete it. No subcontractors, ever. Consistent standards and accountability across the full scope of every project.

What Strata Managers Say About Brushworks

Michelle T.Strata Manager, Woolloomooloo, Sydney
★★★★★
“Brushworks managed a full exterior repaint of our seven-storey Woolloomooloo building, occupied throughout. The strata submission package they prepared was the most complete we’ve received from any painter. Work was staged perfectly and residents barely noticed the disruption.”
David L.Portfolio Strata Manager, Pyrmont, Sydney
★★★★★
“We engaged Brushworks for common area repaints across three buildings in our portfolio. The WHS documentation and strata committee paperwork was handled entirely by their team. Having one contractor who understands the compliance side is genuinely rare.”
Angela R.Building Manager, Potts Point, Sydney
★★★★★
“The committee approved the scope first pass, no back-and-forth. The team worked Saturdays to avoid disrupting residents during the week. Final result matched the product schedule exactly. The 5-year warranty gives the owners corporation confidence the finish will hold.”

Common Questions

Strata Painting Questions, Answered Clearly

What documentation does Brushworks provide for strata committee approval?

We prepare a complete submission package including a written scope of works, itemised pricing, Dulux product data sheets, colour samples, WHS risk assessment, safe work method statement, and our certificates of currency for public liability and workers compensation insurance. This package is formatted so the committee can make a compliant resolution at their next meeting without requesting additional information.

Can you paint a strata building while residents are still in their apartments?

Yes, occupied strata painting is a core part of our service. We stage work so that corridors, lobbies, and building entrances remain accessible throughout the project. For interior common areas, we use low-VOC Dulux products to minimise odour impact on residents. We provide a written daily work schedule to the building manager so residents know what to expect each day. For more information on our general approach, see our Sydney CBD painters page.

How long does a strata building exterior repaint take?

Timeline depends on building size, the number of levels, access conditions, and surface preparation requirements. A four-storey building with moderate preparation typically requires two to three weeks. Larger buildings with scaffolding requirements, complex access logistics, or significant surface repairs take proportionally longer. We provide a specific timeline in writing with every strata quote.

Do you handle lift bookings and building manager coordination?

Yes. Before every strata project, our team contacts the building manager to arrange lift bookings, loading zone access, after-hours entry requirements, and any permit conditions specific to the building’s location. We manage all of this directly, the strata manager does not need to coordinate building access on our behalf.

What warranty do you provide on strata painting work?

Every strata project completed by Brushworks is covered by a 5-year written workmanship warranty issued on project completion. The warranty covers defects in our workmanship, including peeling, cracking, and adhesion failure attributable to our preparation or application, for the full five-year period. If a warranted defect appears, we return and rectify it at no cost to the owners corporation.

Do you service strata buildings outside Sydney CBD?

Brushworks is based in Woolloomooloo and works primarily across Sydney CBD and inner-city suburbs. We regularly service strata buildings in Woolloomooloo, Pyrmont, Potts Point, Darlinghurst, and surrounding inner-city suburbs. Contact us to confirm availability for your building’s location.
