Pennant Hills homes range from 1950s brick to large modern rebuilds, with a growing strata market near the station. One licensed crew paints all of it, with preparation matched to each surface.
Award Painting has painted across Pennant Hills since 2007 from a base a few minutes away near Hornsby. Licence 222321C and $20M public liability insurance stand behind every job, and every quote is fixed in writing after a walkthrough.
A 1960s brick home in Pennant Hills is mostly a trim job: fascias, gutters, eaves, timber or aluminium windows and doors, each primed for its material and finished in enamel. A 1990s two-storey house adds rendered facades, cement-sheet upper levels and a lot of height, which means scaffold or platforms and a flexible acrylic system for the render. A recent rebuild often needs new render sealed properly and large interior walls rolled in consistent sheens under strong light.
Whatever the decade, the quote follows the same four drivers: preparation, access, colour change and the amount of trim.
Pennant Hills’ apartment and townhouse stock needs committee-ready scopes, staged access and clear communication with residents. Common areas are painted with low-odour products and signed wet paint, facades are planned with the safest access method, and larger buildings can be scheduled across financial years through a maintenance program.
Ridge-top homes take western sun and wind, so chalking paint, split putty and cracked render are common on that side. The eastern and southern edges towards Lane Cove National Park bring shade, moss and slow drying. We prepare each elevation for its own conditions and choose products to suit: UV-stable systems where the sun hits, mould-treated and breathable systems where it does not.
We also work in West Pennant Hills, Beecroft, Thornleigh and Cherrybrook.
The craft
Sharp tape lines, clean brushes, the right product for the right surface. Small habits, repeated on every job, are what a premium finish is made of.

Questions
Anything else? Call us or send a message and we will give you a straight answer.

Every quote starts with a free walkthrough. We look at the condition of the existing paint, access, the number of colours and how much trim there is, then put a fixed price in writing with preparation, coats, repairs and access itemised. Preparation overruns are carried by us, not added to your bill.
Yes. Award Painting Pty Ltd holds NSW Painting and Decorating Contractors Licence 222321C and carries $20M public liability insurance. Both are shown on every quote and can be checked against the NSW Fair Trading licence register.
Yes. Render is washed, cracks are raked and filled with a flexible compound, bare patches are sealed, and the walls are coated in a premium or elastomeric acrylic system. Height is handled with scaffold, planks or a platform, and access is shown as its own line in the quote.
Yes. Many committees prefer to spread the work across financial years: common areas one year, facade the next. We write the scope in stages, hold the standard across them and provide a program the strata manager can share with owners.
A full interior of a 3 or 4 bedroom home usually takes 5 to 8 working days. A full exterior takes 1 to 3 weeks depending on size, access and how much timber needs preparation. You get a start date and a finish date in writing, and the same crew stays on the job from the first day to the last.
A colour consultation valued at $275 is included free with every quote. We look at the orientation of each wall, the roof and brick colours you are keeping, the street and the light under your trees, then test sample boards on the house rather than choosing from a chip.
