Strata & Commercial Painting in Sydney For Buildings, Businesses & Shared Properties
Professional painting for strata buildings and commercial properties across Sydney, with clear scopes, practical scheduling, careful preparation and reliable communication from assessment through to completion.
Painting Planned Around The Property
Strata and commercial painting involves more than choosing colours and applying new coatings. Access, occupants, shared spaces and business operations can all influence how the work should be organised.
PAINTD plans the painting scope around the surfaces, condition of the property and practical site requirements. From apartment buildings and common areas to offices, cafés, shops and other commercial premises, the aim is to keep the work clear, organised and appropriate for the property being painted.
What We Paint Across Strata & Commercial Properties
Strata Buildings
Painting for apartment buildings, unit complexes and managed residential properties, with the scope planned around surfaces, access and shared areas.
Common Areas
Painting for foyers, entrances, corridors, hallways, stairwells and other shared spaces used by residents, visitors and building occupants.
Commercial Interiors
Painting for offices, shops, cafés, restaurants and other commercial interiors, with scheduling considered around how the space is used.
Commercial Exteriors
Painting for suitable façades, entrances, exterior walls, trim and other painted building surfaces on commercial properties.

Strata Painting That Works Around the Building
Strata painting often involves more than one surface, one area or one group of people using the property. The painting scope needs to work around the building as a whole.
PAINTD provides painting for apartment buildings, unit complexes and managed residential properties across Sydney. The work can include interior common areas, exterior surfaces and shared architectural details, with access, preparation and scheduling considered before the project begins.
Apartment & Unit Buildings
Painting scopes for strata buildings and managed residential properties, from individual sections through to broader repainting work.
Common & Shared Areas
Foyers, corridors, stairwells, entrances and other shared areas can be included according to the agreed project scope.
Exterior Building Surfaces
Render, painted masonry, balconies, walls, trim and other suitable exterior surfaces can be assessed as part of the strata painting scope.
Access & Project Scheduling
Access, work areas and timing are considered around residents, shared spaces and practical site requirements before work moves ahead.
Commercial Painting Planned Around Your Business
Commercial spaces need to look professional while continuing to work for the people who use them. That makes the painting scope, preparation and timing just as important as the finished appearance.
PAINTD provides commercial painting in Sydney for offices, shops, cafés, restaurants and other business premises. Interior and suitable exterior surfaces can be assessed together, with the work planned around the condition of the property, access requirements and how the space is used.

Access & Practical Scheduling
Work areas, access and timing are considered around business operations and site requirements before the painting project moves ahead.


Painting Shared Areas With the Building in Mind
Common areas are some of the most frequently seen and used parts of a strata property, so worn walls, marked surfaces and tired finishes can quickly affect how the whole building feels.
PAINTD paints common areas across Sydney strata properties, including foyers, corridors, hallways, stairwells, entrances and other shared spaces. Preparation, access and the condition of each surface are considered so the painting scope is clear before the work begins.
Foyers, Entrances & Corridors
Painting for building entrances, foyers, hallways and circulation areas used every day by residents, visitors and building occupants.
Stairwells & Landings
Walls, ceilings and other suitable painted surfaces around staircases, landings and shared access areas can be included within the strata painting scope.
Doors, Frames & Trim
Suitable doors, frames, skirtings and painted architectural details can be assessed as part of a broader common-area repaint.
Preparation Around Shared Spaces
Surface condition, access and protection of surrounding areas are considered so preparation can be matched to the surfaces being painted.
A Better Painting Project Starts Before the First Coat
Strata and commercial painting becomes easier to manage when the scope, access and surface requirements are understood before work begins.
PAINTD takes a practical approach to planning each project, so the areas being painted, preparation requirements, access considerations and suitable coating systems can be understood before the work moves ahead.
Site Assessment
We assess the surfaces, existing condition and practical site requirements, including access and how the property is used, before defining the painting scope.
Clear Painting Scope
Work areas, surfaces, preparation and key inclusions are identified so there is a clearer understanding of what forms part of the project before painting begins.
Access & Scheduling
Access, work areas and timing are considered around residents, shared spaces, business operations and practical site requirements before the project moves ahead.
Preparation & Coating Systems
Preparation can include pressure washing or appropriate exterior cleaning, sanding, filling, minor surface repairs and priming where required. Coating systems are then selected for the substrate and exposure, including protective membrane coatings for suitable rendered and masonry surfaces.
Depending on the substrate and project requirements, suitable systems can include conventional architectural coatings as well as membrane coating systems for exterior render and masonry.
Questions About Strata & Commercial Painting
From access and scheduling to preparation and painting systems, these are some of the common questions we receive when planning strata and commercial painting projects in Sydney.
What does strata painting typically include?
Strata painting can include interior common areas, building entrances, foyers, corridors, stairwells, suitable doors and trim, as well as exterior walls, render, painted masonry and other building surfaces. The exact scope depends on the property, surface condition, access requirements and the areas included in the project.
Do you paint common areas in apartment buildings?
Yes. PAINTD provides common area painting for strata and apartment buildings across Sydney. This can include foyers, entrances, corridors, hallways, stairwells, landings, walls, ceilings and other suitable painted surfaces included within the agreed scope.
Can painting be completed while residents are in the building?
In many cases, yes. Strata painting can often be planned in stages around occupied buildings and shared areas. Access, work zones and timing are considered before commencement so the painting plan is appropriate for the property and the people using it.
Do you work with strata managers and building managers?
Yes. PAINTD can work with strata managers, building managers, owners corporations and other property representatives to assess the painting requirements, establish a clear scope and plan practical access and scheduling for the project.
Can you organise scaffolding for a strata or commercial project?
Yes. Fixed scaffolding is often supplied or arranged by the client, strata, builder or property representative. Where suitable access has not already been arranged, PAINTD can assist with coordinating scaffolding through external access partners as part of planning the project.
Can PAINTD work from boom lifts or scissor lifts?
Yes. PAINTD has appropriately ticketed personnel for operating boom lifts and scissor lifts where this type of access is suitable for the painting project. Access requirements are assessed according to the building, work areas and site conditions before the project begins.
What types of commercial properties do you paint?
PAINTD provides commercial painting for offices, shops, cafés, restaurants and other business premises across Sydney. Depending on the property, the scope can include commercial interiors as well as suitable exterior walls, façades, entrances, trim and other painted surfaces.
Can commercial painting be planned around business operations?
Where practical, the work can be planned around how the premises operates. The areas being painted, access requirements, sequencing and suitable working arrangements can be discussed during project planning so the scope works with the requirements of the property.
How do you prepare strata and commercial surfaces before painting?
Preparation is matched to the existing surface and coating condition. Depending on the project, this can include pressure washing or appropriate exterior cleaning, sanding, scraping loose or failing coatings, filling cracks and gaps, minor surface repairs and priming where required. Suitable conventional or membrane coating systems can then be selected according to the substrate and exposure.
How is a strata or commercial painting quote prepared?
The quotation is prepared around the actual painting requirements of the property. We consider the areas and surfaces to be painted, their existing condition, preparation requirements, access and other practical site considerations so the proposed scope is clear before the project moves forward.
