Painters for Sydney's Inner South & Airport

Mascot, Alexandria & Marrickville to the Inner-West Edge

The band of Sydney running from the airport up through Mascot, Alexandria and the Green Square renewal area into Marrickville and the inner west is one of the fastest-changing parts of the city. DRJ Painting, based down the line in Cronulla, works this whole corridor — and it's a genuinely mixed brief. You've got sleek new Zetland and Rosebery apartments, converted warehouses in Alexandria and St Peters, tightly packed workers' terraces in Newtown and Erskineville, and a solid layer of light industrial and commercial premises feeding the airport and Port Botany.

We move comfortably between all of it: heritage terrace interiors in Petersham and Dulwich Hill one week, a warehouse repaint or an epoxy warehouse floor near Botany the next. Because so much of this area is high-density and commercial, we're set up for after-hours and weekend work that keeps businesses trading and neighbours onside.

Homes, Terraces & Apartments

From restoring a Victorian terrace in Stanmore or Summer Hill to repainting a modern apartment in Zetland or a semi in Marrickville, we handle the residential side with care for period detail and clean, modern finishes. Plaster repair, feature walls, ceilings and heritage colour work are all in our wheelhouse.

  • Terrace & semi interiors and exteriors
  • Apartment & unit repaints
  • Heritage & period colour matching
  • Plaster repair & feature walls

Commercial, Warehouse & Industrial

The airport corridor and industrial pockets of Alexandria, Botany, Mascot and St Peters are full of warehouses, workshops, offices and retail. We paint commercial interiors and exteriors, refresh cafe and retail fit-outs in Marrickville, and lay durable epoxy floors built for forklifts and heavy foot traffic.

  • Warehouse & factory painting
  • Office & retail fit-outs
  • Cafe & hospitality interiors
  • Epoxy & protective floor coatings

Why This Corridor Chooses DRJ

After-Hours Ready

We schedule commercial and retail work around your trading hours — nights and weekends included — to keep this busy area moving.

Residential & Industrial

One team for heritage terraces and warehouse floors alike, so mixed-use owners and managers only need a single trusted contact.

Premium, Durable Finishes

Thorough prep and premium products stand up to the traffic, dust and wear that come with inner-city and industrial sites.

How We Approach Inner-South Projects

This corridor demands two very different skill sets, and we run both. On commercial and industrial sites around Mascot, Botany and Alexandria, the priorities are dust and fume control, safe access, and floor coatings tough enough for forklifts and pallet traffic — which is why epoxy and protective flooring is such a big part of what we do here. We work in with warehouse operations and trading hours so a repaint or a new floor doesn't shut you down.

On the residential side, the terraces and semis of Marrickville, Petersham, Dulwich Hill and Stanmore are often heritage-listed or heritage-adjacent, with lath-and-plaster walls and ornate detail that reward careful hands. We repair, prep and finish these properly, matching period colours where it counts. Whichever end of the spectrum your property sits at, you get a detailed written quote up front and a single accountable team from start to finish.
