Perth’s Trusted House Painters — 25 Years of Exceptional Finishes

A1 Central Painting has been transforming Perth homes and businesses since 2012. Led by Frank Mousavi — a hands-on, fully qualified painter with over 25 years of experience — our team delivers meticulous surface preparation, premium Dulux finishes, and workmanship backed by a warranty. Whether you need interior house painting, exterior repainting, commercial painting, or specialist coatings, we serve Perth and surrounding suburbs including Subiaco, Claremont, Nedlands, East Fremantle, and Cottesloe.

Why Perth Homeowners Choose A1 Central Painting

When you invite a painting team into your home, you deserve more than someone who just shows up with a roller. You need a painter who has genuinely mastered the trade — one who understands Perth’s climate, knows which products perform under harsh UV and coastal conditions, and respects your property from start to finish.

Frank Mousavi, the founder and lead painter of A1 Central Painting, has been doing exactly that for over 25 years. Since establishing the business in 2012, Frank has personally overseen hundreds of residential painting and commercial painting projects across Perth’s western suburbs and inner city. His clients in Subiaco, East Fremantle, Claremont, and Nedlands keep coming back — and keep referring their neighbours — because Frank delivers the kind of finish you notice when you walk into a room.

A1 Central Painting is Dulux Accredited and a registered member of the Master Painters & Decorators Australia (MPDA). These aren’t just badges. They mean our standards are verified by the industry’s leading bodies and that every product we apply carries the manufacturer’s full performance guarantee.

We are fully insured with public liability cover, and every project is backed by a workmanship warranty. When we hand over your property at the end of a job, you can be confident it was done right.

What Sets Us Apart From Other Painters in Perth

Frank Mousavi — 25 Years of Hands-On Experience

A1 Central Painting isn’t a large faceless company that sends different crews to every job. Frank Mousavi leads every project personally. With over 25 years of active, hands-on painting experience across Perth, Frank brings a depth of knowledge that only comes from mastering the trade — not just managing it. You speak directly with Frank from quote to completion.

Dulux Accredited & MPDA Member

We are a verified Dulux Accredited Painter and a proud member of the Master Painters & Decorators Australia. These credentials mean the products we use carry full manufacturer warranties and our workmanship meets the industry’s highest standards. Not every painter in Perth can say that.

Meticulous Preparation — the Foundation of a Lasting Finish

Most paint failures start before the first drop of paint is applied. Poor cleaning, skipped priming, and rushed surface repairs result in peeling, cracking, and fading within years. At A1 Central Painting, preparation is never rushed. Every surface is cleaned, repaired, primed, and inspected before application begins — because a premium finish starts with premium prep.

Fully Insured With a Workmanship Warranty

We carry full public liability insurance on every project, protecting your property and your peace of mind throughout the job. All workmanship is backed by a warranty. If something isn’t right, we make it right — no arguments, no delays.

Built for Perth’s Climate

Perth’s intense UV, heat, and coastal salt air destroy paint systems that aren’t designed for local conditions. We select coatings based on your property’s specific exposure, substrate, and location — not just what’s popular. That’s why our finishes look sharp years after other painters’ work has faded.

Clean, Respectful, On Time

We protect floors, furniture, and surrounding surfaces before work begins. We maintain a tidy site every single day. We arrive on time and communicate clearly throughout the project. When we’re done, we leave your property cleaner than we found it. Ask any of our clients — this is simply how we work.

OUR PAINTING PROCESS

Our painting process is designed to keep projects clear, organised, and stress-free. Each stage is planned to ensure quality finishes, clear communication, and reliable outcomes for residential and commercial clients across Perth.

Initial consultation and site inspection

We visit the property to understand the scope of work, assess surfaces, and discuss expectations. This allows us to provide accurate advice and ensure the project is clearly defined before any work begins.

Detailed written quote and scheduling

Following the inspection, we provide a clear written quote outlining the scope, materials, and timeline. Scheduling is agreed in advance so clients know exactly when work will start and finish.

Surface preparation and protection

All surfaces are prepared properly before painting begins. This includes cleaning, repairing imperfections, and protecting floors, furniture, and surrounding areas to maintain a tidy site.

Paint and finish selection

We select suitable paint products and finishes based on surface type, exposure, and usage. This ensures the final result looks consistent and performs well over time in Perth conditions.

Professional application and supervision

Painting is completed by experienced painters using controlled application methods. On-site supervision ensures consistent quality, safe work practices, and attention to detail throughout the project.

Final inspection and project handover

Once work is complete, we inspect the finished areas with the client. Any final adjustments are addressed, and the project is handed over with confidence in the finished result.

A1 Central Painting has been my go-to painting service for nearly 20 years. Frank first painted our beautiful family home, inside and out, in 2006 and over the years I have recommended him to family, friends and associates, all of whom have been extremely happy with the skill, expertise and professional job Frank and his team always deliver. I have recently had need of Frank's services yet again and am still impressed by his friendly professionalism, efficiency and the high standard of work provided by the team at A1 Central Painting. Highly recommended.

I would 100% recommend Frank and the team! They came in to paint after we renovated our bathrooms in East Freo. This included prep (covering, patching, sanding), painting new walls, ceilings and doors as well as fresh coats on existing walls, ceilings and doors. Very responsive, excellent quality and extremely clean work!

Frank and Roberto. Did a fabulous job transforming my 50 year old eaves and facias, along with the Dow pipes and a very large boundary wall. I couldn’t be happier with their workmanship. Frank was so professional, adapted the job fairly and considerately when he encountered problems with rusting facias/gutters and left my house so clean each day, having cleaned up bins and bins full of mess from the sanding of the flaked paint. Thank you so much to A1 Central Painting for your tremendous work!

Frequently Asked Questions About Professional Painting in Perth

The cost of hiring painters in Perth depends on factors such as property size, surface condition, access, and the type of paint system required. Projects involving extensive preparation, repairs, or specialised coatings will vary from straightforward repaints. We provide detailed, obligation-free quotes after an on-site inspection so clients understand the scope, materials, and workmanship involved before work begins.
