Commercial painting in Bondi
Bondi's commercial buildings sit inside its residential ones. The shops, cafes and salons run along Campbell Parade, Hall Street and Bondi Road; above and behind them are offices and studios, and the interwar walk-up blocks that give the suburb its character. So a job here is rarely just a room full of walls - the tenancy downstairs is trading, the stairwell above it is common property that the owners corporation pays for, and the front elevation is taking salt off the beach. We quote and sequence the work with all three of those in the room.
Proview Painting is Dulux Accredited and holds NSW painting licence 254277C (ABN 48 380 838 464), with public liability and workers compensation cover and certificates of currency available on request, plus a site-specific safe work method statement written for your site rather than photocopied from the last one. Every job carries our 5-year written workmanship guarantee. Neil quotes each job personally, and the van is based on Byron Street in Coogee, so a site visit or a mid-job question does not have to travel far.

Commercial painting in Bondi: shopfronts, offices, common property and make goods
Five kinds of work cover almost everything we are asked to price in Bondi. Each one has its own scope, its own scheduling problem and its own reason the previous coat did not last.
Shopfronts and cafes on the retail strips
Full exterior and interior repaints for retail stores, shopfronts and showrooms - fascia, awning soffits, render, doors, window frames and the interior behind the glass. Campbell Parade takes salt-laden wind every day of the year, and salt is hygroscopic: it pulls moisture out of the air and holds it against the paint film, so a facade coated over unwashed salt lets go early. Every coastal exterior we do starts with a wash before a scraper or brush touches it, then coastal-rated Dulux systems at the correct film build. Rust on steel shopfront frames, roller doors and railings is taken back to sound metal and primed before the topcoat, not glossed over while it is still active.
Offices and studios above the shops
Interior repaints for workplaces above and behind the strips - walls, ceilings, doors, frames, skirting and architraves. Sealer or primer where the surface needs it, then two full finish coats, with the right sheen for high-traffic areas. We do not thin a coat or skip one to finish early, because the guarantee depends on the system going on properly. Where the tenancy has to stay open, the floor is worked in a sequence agreed before we start so nobody loses their desk or their access for the whole job.
Strata common property in the Art Deco blocks
Most of Bondi's Art Deco walk-ups are strata-titled, so the facade, hallways, stairwells, foyer, balcony soffits and external balustrades are common property: the owners corporation owns the decision and pays from the capital works fund. The quote is itemised elevation by elevation with systems and coats named, the compliance pack goes to your strata manager with it, common-area interiors get washable low-odour systems, and balconies are cleared in rotation rather than all at once. On a Deco block the render decides the price - we tap-test before quoting, because drummy render has to be cut out and patched with a compatible mix and the texture matched before any paint goes on. Our Art Deco guide covers the render assessment, the steel windows and the three-part colour scheme.
Make good and end-of-lease for tenants and agents
When a commercial lease ends the tenant owes the premises back in the condition they took them, and paint is usually the biggest line in that make good. We repaint walls, ceilings, doors and frames back to the condition-report standard, with line marking and epoxy floors where the lease calls for them, scheduled to your lease-end date. We work for tenants handing back and for agents and landlords getting a shop, office or unit ready to re-let in hard-wearing re-let whites, and we hand over a dated photo record of every area so the bond conversation is short.
Out-of-hours work, and new signage with the repaint
Most shopfronts, offices and common areas here are painted outside trading hours or on weekends so the business keeps running, and that program is planned and priced into the quote rather than sprung on you later. Where the job is a rebrand, the repaint and the new signage go wrong when they are booked as two jobs with two dates - we repaint the building and coordinate the signage through one contact, so the colours match the brand standard and the sign goes up on a finished wall.
Recent commercial work
Photos, scope of works and the products used on recent commercial jobs: a strata block in Mosman, an end-of-lease warehouse at Northmead, and L&H Electrical branches across NSW and the ACT.

L&H Electrical
Branch after branch repainted to the corporate colour standard, with the signage handled as part of the same job rather than a second trade to chase.

Free quote, in writing
Call Neil on 0416 070 326 or send the site details through the quote form. Neil walks the tenancy or the building himself, and the written quote comes back itemised so you can see exactly where the money goes. It is free and there is no obligation.
Scope and scheduling
We agree the scope area by area, then set the program around your trading hours, your tenants and, in a strata block, the residents - including after-hours and weekend work, priced in the quote. The compliance pack goes to you or the strata manager before anyone opens a tin, and residents or staff get written notice and a day-by-day sequence.
Prep and paint
Surfaces are prepared for what they actually are - render, timber or steel - with the wash, the repairs and the primer done before two full finish coats. Coastal-rated systems on the elevations facing the beach, washable low-odour systems in common areas, and rust treated back to sound metal on steel before the enamel goes on.
Clean handover
The site is left clean at the end of each shift, and we finish with a walk-through together. Make good jobs come with the dated photo record of every area for the file, colour codes and product records go across for future touch-ups, and the work carries our 5-year written workmanship guarantee.
This page is the Bondi end of our commercial and strata painting work - retail, offices, warehouses, make goods and multi-site rebrands. If the building is strata, strata painters Sydney covers common property, the compliance pack and committee-ready quotes, and painting Art Deco apartments in Bondi goes through render and colour on the walk-up blocks.

Commercial painting in Bondi — common questions
Are you licensed and insured for commercial work?
Yes. NSW painting licence 254277C, checkable on the Service NSW licence register, and ABN 48 380 838 464. Certificates of currency for public liability and workers compensation are available on request for everyone on site, and the safe work method statement is written for your building's access and heights rather than photocopied from the last job. Product data sheets for every system specified go out with the quote instead of being chased after the job starts. We are Dulux Accredited, and every commercial job carries our 5-year written workmanship guarantee.
Can the work be done outside our trading hours?
Yes, and it usually is. Shopfronts, offices and common areas are commonly painted outside trading hours or on weekends so the business keeps running, and the program is agreed and priced that way up front - no surprise charge for night work. On the JA Hair Salon interior in Potts Point every shift ran outside trading hours so client appointments were not affected, with low-odour Dulux products specified because it is a personal care space, and a thorough clean-up at the end of every shift.
What is a make good or end-of-lease repaint?
It is the repaint the tenant owes the landlord at the end of a commercial lease: walls, ceilings, doors and frames back to the condition-report standard, usually with line marking and epoxy floors where the lease calls for them. We work to your lease-end date and hand over a dated photo record of every area so the bond conversation is short. The Northmead warehouse handback is a typical one - heavily worn walls fully prepared, filled and repainted in two coats, and the concrete floor coated with a full epoxy system.
How do you quote a commercial job?
Neil walks the site and writes the quote himself. It comes back itemised area by area, with the product system and number of coats named against each surface, preparation spelled out, access priced up front rather than discovered on day two, and the compliance documents attached from day one. If you are getting a few numbers, make sure every painter is pricing the same written scope - otherwise you are comparing different jobs, and the cheapest number is just the thinnest scope.
Our Bondi block has shops downstairs and flats above - who pays for the outside?
The facade is common property, so the owners corporation pays for it from the capital works fund and the decision goes through the committee, whether the ground floor is a shop or a flat. Inside your own lot or tenancy is yours, and a tenant's make good obligations are a separate matter under the lease. Balconies vary building to building, so the registered strata plan and by-laws are the final word - confirm the boundaries with your strata manager before we scope the work.
Does the salt really matter on a shopfront a block back from the beach?
It matters most on the front row and it still matters behind it. A properly prepared exterior on Bondi's directly exposed elevations runs about 5-7 years before it needs attention, stretching to 7-10 years a few streets back, and the difference between those numbers and a coating that fails in two is the wash, the primer and the second coat. That is why we price the wash and the preparation as real line items rather than burying them.
Do you check for lead paint before working on an older Bondi building?
Yes. Anything built before 1970 is treated as containing lead paint until it has been tested, and preparation follows AS 4361.2 lead-safe practice with containment and disposal. On Bondi's interwar walk-up blocks and older shopfronts that comes up regularly, and it belongs in the written scope up front - it changes how the prep is done and what it costs.
