Schools take more wear than almost any other building, and painting has to fit around the school year. Crown Finish Painters provides school painting in Melbourne for primary and secondary schools, kindergartens, TAFEs, universities and other education facilities. Classrooms, corridors, halls, gyms and building exteriors are painted during school holidays, after hours or on weekends, using durable, low odour finishes and a written, itemised quote before work begins.
A freshly painted classroom changes how a school feels on the first day back, for students and teachers alike.
Crown Finish Painters TeamEducation facility painting comes with its own set of challenges. Walls take daily knocks from bags, chairs and sports equipment, students and staff can't be exposed to paint fumes, and work has to fit into tight holiday windows. Crown Finish Painters plans every school job around the school calendar, so buildings are finished, aired out and ready for students when term starts.
As school painters Melbourne schools can rely on, the team uses hard wearing, scrubbable finishes in classrooms and corridors, moisture resistant coatings in toilets and change rooms, and protective systems for exteriors, fences and playground structures. Projects can include full interior painting and exterior painting across one building or the whole campus.
Every school painting quote is written and itemised, with staging planned across the available holiday periods.
The best time to paint a school is when students aren't there. Most school painting in Melbourne is planned around the Victorian school holidays, with larger projects staged across more than one break.
The longest break of the year and the best time for large projects such as full classroom blocks, halls, gyms and building exteriors.
Around two weeks, suited to a group of classrooms, corridors, toilets or a single building.
Ideal for interior work such as classrooms, staff rooms, libraries and offices while the weather is cooler.
Good for exterior touch ups, playground equipment, fences and preparing buildings for the end of year.

Principals, business managers and facility managers usually ask the same questions before a school painting project. Here are clear answers.
Painters in Melbourne price work differently depending on the job. Most commercial and school projects are quoted as a fixed price based on the area to be painted, surface condition, preparation, the coatings needed, access and whether work is done in holidays or after hours. Crown Finish provides a free, written and itemised quote after an inspection, so you know the full cost upfront.
