Paint to a higher standard, with us.
If you take pride in your brushwork and want a crew that takes it as seriously as you do, we’d love to meet you. Experienced painters and apprentices welcome.

Join the Platinum crew
Platinum Painting is a growing, owner-led crew working right across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland and the Hunter Valley, and we’re always keen to hear from good painters who want to be part of it.
The culture here is simple: we do the job properly, we back each other, and nobody stands over your shoulder. Dean trusts the crew to do what they do best, and the finished work speaks for itself.
If these values sound like yours, we’d love to speak with you.
- Do it properly
- Be honest
- Respect the home
- Stand behind it

What it’s like to work here
Don’t take our word for it. Ethan has been in the painting industry for about six years, here he is on what working at Platinum is actually like.
- High-end projects: residential repaints, commercial buildings and strata units
- You'll never be asked to rush a job or cut a corner
- Work beside Dean, an owner who's on the tools with the crew
- Steady local work, so you're home every night
“The standards are quite high. We don’t want to cut corners. We want to be able to walk away from the job at the end and be proud of it.”
Why join us
Five reasons to work with Platinum Painting
Owner-led, not micromanaged
Dean quotes the jobs and paints them with you. You work with the owner, not for a head office.
Work you can be proud of
Every finish carries a written 5-year warranty. You'll have the time and the materials to do it right.
Local work, every day
Jobs across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland and the Hunter Valley. Close to home, home every night.
No two weeks the same
A townhouse repaint one week, a commercial building or strata complex the next. Varied, high-end projects keep the work interesting.
Any stage of your trade
Experienced painters and apprentices are both welcome. Learn the standards behind a 5-year warranty from a trade-qualified crew.
