"Jye recently painted my salon for me. He done an excellent job, was reliable and efficient with his time and has great attention to detail when it comes to the quality of his work. Highly recommend!"
"Absolutely outstanding job by Hughesys Painting on one of my rental properties in Newcastle. The finish was flawless and the whole place looks amazing. Reliable, professional and takes real pride in his work. Highly recommend. I'll definitely be using him again for my other rental properties."
"Jye Hughes painted the exterior of my home (render, panels, wood battens) a month ago. It was a challenging job, with half of the house at two stories, and limited access - but he delivered without a problem. He was meticulous in cleaning and preparation and the execution was thorough, speedy, reliable and absolutely professional. The end result was outstanding and his price was very competitive. I have no hesitation in recommending him for any painting job, and will go to him first for any future work."
"Jye from Hughesys Painting Services did an amazing job painting multiple rooms and feature walls in our home. His attention to detail, preparation, and finish were all top quality. He was reliable, easy to deal with, and kept everything clean and tidy throughout the job. The final result completely transformed the space. Highly recommend Hughesys Painting Services to anyone looking for a professional painter."
Watch the transformations
Short clips straight from recent jobs across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. The prep, the spray, the finish.
Transform Your Home.
Add Real Value.
Scuffed walls and a faded exterior drag a whole property down. A good paint job is one of the fastest, most practical ways to lift a property, and it is one of the few home improvements where proper preparation determines the result, not the brand on the tin.
Whether you are freshening up one room, getting the exterior sorted before listing, or just want the place looking the way it did a few years back, we deliver a finish that holds up, not one that peels off by the following summer.
Jye Hughes leads Hughesys Painting out of Edgeworth. We quote in writing, prepare surfaces properly, and keep Jye close to the job standards from first call through to final coat. If something needs sorting after the job is done, you ring the same number that answered when you booked.
Jye holds a current NSW painter-decorator licence (Lic. 476719C). You can verify the licence at NSW Fair Trading before booking.
Based in Edgeworth and servicing Newcastle NSW and the wider Lake Macquarie area, we know what local homes need: proper preparation for weatherboard that has been baking in the coastal sun, the right primer for rendered brick, and salt-air-rated products for homes close to the water. This is the Newcastle region. The conditions are specific. The prep has to match.

House painting that starts with prep
Interior and exterior house painting need different prep. Inside, Jye looks at cracks, previous paint, trims, ceilings, and how the room is used. Outside, he checks sun exposure, salt air, peeling paint, render, weatherboard movement, and whether the surface needs washing or priming first.
Maintenance before repainting
Some Newcastle painting jobs are not just colour changes. Fences, decks, gutters, cabinets, and roofs often need cleaning, repairs, sanding, sealing, or coating advice before repainting. That is why Jye checks the surface before giving a written quote.
A written quote you can compare
If you are comparing house painters in Newcastle, ask what is included before you compare prices. A proper quote should make the prep, coats, products, access, timing, and cleanup clear enough that you know what you are saying yes to.

Questions about painting in Newcastle
How much does painting cost in Newcastle?
There is no single number because jobs vary a lot. A single-room interior repaint is one price; a double-storey weatherboard exterior with prep work is another entirely. Interior prices shift with room size, ceiling height, and how many coats the walls actually need. Exterior prices shift with house size, storeys, and the state of the existing paint. We come out, have a proper look at everything, and give you a written price before any work starts, so you know exactly what you are in for.
Do you charge for a quote?
No. We visit the property, check every surface, and get a written number back to you. The visit and the written quote are free. You decide if you want to book.
How far in advance do I need to book?
It varies depending on the time of year and what jobs are already on. Spring and pre-Christmas are busy periods. Best approach: call Jye on 0466 880 561 and we can tell you the current window straight away.
What paint brands do you use?
Dulux, Taubmans, and Haymes are the main ones. For jobs near the coast we specify products rated for marine exposure, not standard exterior grades. If you have a brand preference or a specific colour you want matched, raise it at the quote stage. We will not swap to a cheaper product without telling you.
Do you move furniture for interior jobs?
Light furniture, yes. We move and cover it as part of the job. Heavier items like pianos, big bookcases, or built-in wardrobes need to be cleared before we arrive. We flag exactly what needs to move at the quote walkthrough so there are no surprises on the day.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Jye holds NSW painter-decorator licence 476719C, which you can look up on the NSW Fair Trading licence register before booking. If you need any current certificates before the job starts, just ask and Jye will send through what applies.
Do you do commercial painting in Newcastle?
Yes. Offices, retail shops, cafes, warehouses, small industrial spaces across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. Commercial jobs are scheduled to keep disruption to a minimum: early starts, after-hours, or staging the work around your trading hours are all on the table when quoting.
What residential painting services do you offer?
Interior walls and ceilings, exterior weatherboard and render, roofs, decks, fences, kitchen cabinet repainting, and wallpaper removal. Every residential job gets the same prep: sand, fill, prime, then paint. Not sure if your specific project is covered? Ring Jye and he will tell you straight.
