    I am so thrilled with the finish on my dining table. The paint is such high quality, the service is personal and professional and delivery was quick. Corrina was fantastic and I’ll be using Bird on the Hill Designs again for my next project. I’ll also be thinking about joining one of the workshops in the future. Great products. Great service.

    I bought 5 different shades of Mineral Paint from Bird on the Hill. I was so happy to find one made in Australia and with the colours I wanted. So far I’ve completed two projects and am super happy with the ease of application, the coverage and the depth/vibrancy of the colours. I’m looking forward to doing some fabric painting next.

    My order arrived in a timely fashion (Convid-19 post delays) I purchased the Milk Paint Project Bundle and the Re-design Decor Transfer - Classic Vintage Labels. The were all packed really well and came with instructions on how to use. The instructions come on the back of the colour chart which is very handy and I’m loving the brush but haven’t had a chance to start my project yet. I have a feeling I’ll be struggling on deciding which transfer to use as they are all so beautiful. Thank you

    I've only recently become addicted to upcycling furniture and in this short time have used different brands of furniture mineral paint and Bird on the Hill's is by far superior. Just some of the things I love are the beautiful colours, the way it glides on, it's scent isn't over- powering, it dries super quickly, great coverage and it wipes off your skin with a little water (not harsh chemicals or scrubbing required). Bird on the Hill's furniture mineral paint requires so little prep and finish- it's painting with ease. I also LOVE their hemp oil for either finishing my pieces or for wooden tops. Any water marks just wipe off without staining. I'm also a HUGE fan of the Cling On brushes- they make painting easy and enjoyable. The Brush Cleaning Gel is fantastic for keeping my Cling On brushes nice and clean. And to top it all off, Corrina offers impeccable customer service. She has been incredibly helpful in getting me started on my upcycling journey. I highly recommend Bird on the Hill. P.S Photos to come.

    Fabulous products, ive been using Bird on the Hill products for over a year now and never does it fail to disappoint. Everything about these paints tick all my boxes. As a chronic headache sufferer I have to be careful what I use, these products are all natural and low VOC extremely easy to clean up and leave all my pieces looking immaculant!

Painting costs & guides

Frequently asked questions

How much do painters typically charge?
Painting costs depend on the size of the job, the condition of existing surfaces, and whether the work is interior, exterior or both. Jobs requiring significant preparation such as sanding, filling or priming will generally cost more than a straightforward repaint over sound surfaces. Most painters quote per square metre or per room, with exterior work and multi-storey access typically attracting higher rates. This page shows live pricing for jobs in your area.
Do painters need a licence in Australia?
Yes. In most Australian states and territories, painters carrying out domestic work above a certain value must hold a trade-specific licence or registration. Licensing requirements and thresholds vary by jurisdiction — for example, NSW requires a Contractor Licence for painting work. A licensed painter should be able to provide their licence number on request, and you can verify it with your state's building authority.
How should I prepare my home before painters arrive?
Most painters will handle masking, drop sheets and surface preparation as part of the job, but clearing the area of furniture, wall hangings and fragile items beforehand helps the job run smoothly and may reduce your quote. For exterior work, ensure the painter has clear access to all walls and that garden beds or outdoor furniture are moved back. Discuss any specific concerns like lead paint, mould or moisture damage before work begins so the painter can plan accordingly.
