How do I choose a painter for my house – Dulux Accreditation is a good place to start

This is the third article on the subject of choosing a painter.
You can view the first post here (how to compare quotes) and the second here (is my friend’s recommendation a good one?)

We may be a little biased (ok we’re a lot biased because we are Dulux Accredited Painters ourselves) but when you’re looking for a quality paint job for your home or commercial job, starting with a Dulux Accredited Painter is a pretty good place to start!

All Dulux Accredited Painters have to meet strict recruitment criteria around workmanship and reliability. They also all use Dulux premium paints, personally sign an ethical and professional standards document, comply with all safety regulations and hold a minimum of $5 million public liability insurance.

What this adds up to is a quality job that will add value to your home or commercial property.

Dulux Accredited Painters are specially selected for their superior skills and commitment to the painting industry. This ensures they engage in proper quality assurance practices.

They are utterly reliable and will either turn up on time or telephone you. Their reputation is really important to them.

They also take huge pride in their workmanship and use only the highest quality products. This doesn’t just result in a quality job – overall customer satisfaction is incredibly important too. Every aspect of the job must be perfect.

Probably the most important thing of all though is that Dulux Accredited Painters are committed to adopting environmentally friendly practices including:

  • Compliance with environmental legislation;
  • Compliance with air and noise quality guidelines;
  • Adopting friendly waste management practices;
  • Safe and responsible clean up of brushes and paint equipment;

They are also able to use environmentally friendly paint products with low odour formulation (such as Dulux Envir02) upon request.

Finally Dulux Accredited Painters can provide your project with a professional 5 year warranty, guaranteeing the coating system applied will not peel, flake or blister for a period of 5 years due to faulty surface preparation or application of the coating system.

(Just tell your Dulux Accredited Painter that you would like to see the 5 Year Workmanship Warranty when they are quoting your job.)

In all, we appreciate how hard it is to interview a painter and make the right decision for your job. But we do believe that using only Dulux Accredited Painters is a great way to protect yourself from the cowboys that exist in every trade … and ensure you are thrilled with your job – not just when it is completed, but many years down the track.
