Every service, explained.

Wood Coating

Wood coating is a specialist process that protects and enhances the natural beauty of timber surfaces — from decks and pergolas to feature cladding, window frames, skirting boards, and cabinetry. Atlantic Painting Services uses premium oil-based and water-borne wood coating systems that penetrate the timber grain to repel moisture, resist UV yellowing, and prevent the cracking and splitting that untreated timber suffers through Sydney's variable climate.

Before any coating is applied, our team carries out thorough surface preparation: cleaning, sanding, and treating any existing mould or salt deposits. Bare or weathered timber is primed with a purpose-made wood primer to seal the grain and ensure the topcoat bonds correctly. The result is a finish that looks as good as it performs.

We offer a range of finishes — from clear satin and semi-gloss to coloured stains and solid-colour timber paints — tailored to the species of wood and the level of foot traffic or weather exposure the surface receives. Regular maintenance coats applied every few years will keep your timber looking fresh and structurally sound for decades.

Wallpaper

Wallpaper is experiencing a strong design revival, and for good reason: a carefully selected wallpaper pattern transforms a room in a way that paint simply cannot, adding texture, depth, and personality to feature walls, hallways, and ceilings alike. Atlantic Painting Services offers a professional wallpaper hanging service covering standard vinyl, non-woven, fabric-backed, and heritage paper wallcoverings.

Correct installation begins with properly prepared walls — filled, sanded, and primed with a wallpaper-specific primer to prevent air bubbles and ensure adhesion. Our team measures and cuts each length precisely, matching patterns at seams for a seamless finish. We use the correct adhesive for each paper type and work from the ceiling down to avoid sagging.

We are happy to work alongside interior designers and supply the wallpaper of your choice, or advise on paper selection from our network of Australian and imported suppliers. Whether you need a single feature wall or an entire home papered, our installation team delivers a result that is crisp, flat, and built to last.

Wallpapers Agency

As a wallpapers agency, Atlantic Painting Services bridges the gap between product selection and professional installation, providing clients with access to an extensive curated range of residential and commercial wallcoverings alongside the expert fitting service to match. We work with leading Australian distributors and international collections including Scandinavian, British, and American print houses.

Our showroom consultation service helps you navigate the enormous range of available patterns, materials, and textures to find the right fit for your space, budget, and design brief. We consider light levels, room proportions, existing furniture tones, and the longevity of the design trend before making recommendations, so your investment stands the test of time.

For commercial clients — hotels, restaurants, healthcare facilities, and corporate offices — we source Class A fire-rated and antimicrobial wallcoverings that meet Australian building compliance standards. Our team handles the full process from specification to installation and quality sign-off, giving your project manager one less thing to coordinate.

Plastering

Plastering is the foundation of a truly flawless paint finish. No amount of premium topcoat will disguise a wall riddled with cracks, nail pops, or uneven jointing — which is why Atlantic Painting Services treats plastering and painting as a single, integrated process rather than two separate trades. Our team handles crack injection, re-sheeting, cornice repair, and skim coating before a drop sheet ever hits the floor.

We are skilled in both wet-plaster and dry-lining systems, working across heritage horsehair plaster, fibrous plaster cornices, and modern plasterboard. Repairs are matched to the surrounding texture so patches blend invisibly under paint. Where structural movement has caused recurring cracks, we use flexible filler compounds and paint membranes that accommodate future movement without re-cracking.

Combining plastering and painting under one contractor eliminates scheduling gaps between trades, reduces the total project timeline, and gives you a single point of accountability for the finished result. Our team delivers surfaces that are paint-ready to the highest standard — smooth, flat, primed, and warranted.

Roof Sprayings

Roof spraying restores colour and weatherproofing to tired tin or tile roofs without the cost of a full replacement. Atlantic Painting Services completes a full pre-spray inspection to identify and rectify cracked tiles, failed mortar on ridge capping, and rusted flashings before any coating is applied — because a spray coat over a compromised surface will only mask the problem, not fix it.

Our roof spraying system uses a high-build, flexible membrane coating formulated to expand and contract with the roof structure through Sydney's extreme temperature swings. The surface is pressure-washed, treated for moss and lichen, primed, and then topcoated in two applications for depth of colour and long-term protection against rain, UV, and salt air.

A professionally sprayed roof can extend the lifespan of your existing roof by fifteen to twenty years and dramatically improve the appearance of the whole property. Our roof spraying service comes with a written warranty, full safety documentation, and a detailed before-and-after report for your records.

Graffiti Coverage

Graffiti is a visual blight that can damage a business's reputation and signal neglect to the surrounding community. Atlantic Painting Services offers a fast-turnaround graffiti coverage service for shopfronts, fences, retaining walls, and laneway-facing surfaces — typically returning the affected area to a clean, uniform finish within 24 to 48 hours of the initial call.

Our process begins with chemical removal where the substrate permits, reducing the need for heavy paint build-up that can obscure architectural detail. Where chemical removal is not viable, we colour-match the existing surface and repaint over the affected area, blending the repair back into the surrounding finish so the treatment is invisible.

For clients with recurring graffiti problems, we can apply an anti-graffiti clear coat that makes future incidents easier and cheaper to clean without surface damage. Ongoing maintenance contracts are also available, giving business owners the certainty of a rapid response service whenever a new incident occurs.

Varnishing

Varnishing is the art of applying a clear, protective film over timber surfaces to enhance the grain, add warmth, and shield the wood from wear, moisture, and UV damage. Atlantic Painting Services uses professional-grade polyurethane, alkyd, and water-borne varnishes matched to the specific substrate and the level of traffic or exposure the surface will experience.

Interior varnishing is commonly used on hardwood floors, staircases, skirting boards, doors, and furniture. We apply varnish in multiple thin coats, lightly sanding between each coat to build depth and eliminate dust nibs, resulting in a surface that is silky to the touch and highly resistant to everyday wear. Finishes range from matt and satin through to full high-gloss.

Exterior varnishing adds another layer of complexity because the coating must expand and contract with the timber through seasonal temperature changes without cracking or peeling. We use flexible, UV-stable varnishes for decks, pergola beams, boat sheds, and cladding, and recommend appropriate recoat intervals to maintain continuous protection over time.

Heritage Buildings Painting Service

Heritage buildings present unique painting challenges: historic render, sandstone, heritage-listed timber joinery, and period colour schemes all require specialist knowledge, careful product selection, and a deep respect for the building's historical integrity. Atlantic Painting Services has extensive experience working on Federation, Interwar, and post-war heritage properties across Sydney's Inner West and Eastern Suburbs.

We work closely with heritage architects, councils, and the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage to ensure the paints, coatings, and processes we use are appropriate for each building's heritage listing and original construction method. For many heritage structures, this means using breathable lime-based paints, linseed oil primers, and low-sheen finishes that allow moisture to escape from old masonry walls without trapping it behind a modern acrylic skin.

Colour matching is another critical aspect of heritage work. We are skilled in tinting custom heritage colours from original chip samples, historical records, and period paint reference guides so the restored palette is as historically accurate as possible. Our team understands that heritage buildings are irreplaceable cultural assets, and we approach every project with the care and precision they deserve.

Restoration

Paint restoration goes beyond a simple repaint — it is a careful process of diagnosing surface failure, addressing the underlying cause, and reinstating a durable, attractive finish that will perform long into the future. Atlantic Painting Services offers a full restoration painting service for homes, commercial buildings, and heritage properties where years of neglect, weather exposure, or incorrect previous coatings have taken their toll.

The restoration process typically begins with a thorough wash-down to remove chalk, mould, and surface contamination, followed by detailed assessment of the substrate: checking for cracking, friable surfaces, corrosion in metalwork, and timber decay. Where repairs are needed, we carry out the necessary plastering, caulking, timber replacement, and rust treatment before any paint is applied.

Once the substrate is sound, we apply a primer coat appropriate to the surface condition, followed by a build coat or undercoat and a quality topcoat in the specified colour. The result is a surface that not only looks fresh but is properly protected against further deterioration — backed by our warranty for your complete peace of mind.

Paint Contractor

A licensed paint contractor brings formal qualifications, insurance, and site-management systems to every job — whether it is a single-room refresh or a major multi-storey repaint. Atlantic Painting Services is a fully licensed painting and decorating contractor compliant with NSW Fair Trading requirements, carrying appropriate public liability and workers' compensation insurances for your protection.

Engaging a licensed paint contractor is especially important for commercial projects where due-diligence requirements, contract documentation, and insurance certificates need to be in order before work can commence on site. We provide all necessary documentation promptly and work in accordance with Safe Work Australia guidelines for painting contractors, including product SDS sheets, risk assessments, and safe work method statements.

Our contractor service scales to match the job: small teams for residential work, larger crews for commercial and strata projects, and specialist subcontractors brought in for abrasive blasting, spray-applied fireproofing, or line marking when required. All workers are supervised by our experienced site foremen, so quality and safety standards are maintained from the first day to the last.
