Inspirations
Inspirations, previously Merilux Paints, is run by the same family, at the Five Dock store.
It is difficult to exaggerate just how good they are.
Service is brilliant: knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.
I have bought paint and all the accessories plus been given insightful advice including colour schemes from this company since 1986.
Long may they continue!

Thank you to the team at Inspirations Paint Five Dock
The team at Inspirations Paint Five Dock have been fantastic supporting us through our painting journey. We are not professionals, just Mum and Dad trying to get the new renovation painted along with refreshing the rest of the house. We have had a few challenges with painting an older house and the Inspirations team are always there to assist us answering our many questions.

Do not sign up, as scam to get your details
Got a promotion code, used it for the online store for a click and collect, only to have the store rang saying that they never had the items is the store before, refund the amount but losing the credit from the promotion code. Waste of time to only have your details on their data base. Scam

Great local service!
Great service! it is so much easier ordering paint on line & just picking it up. No queuing waiting for paint colours to be mixed!

Ordered 5 sample pots at midday ish on a Friday.. and they were at my door that afternoon. Stunningly fast service
Unhelpful
Unfortunately my experience wasn't great. Order placed online for click and collect and was called half an hour before pick up time to be told out of stock. No offer of an alternative, or estimated restock arrival. Completely unhelpful and quite rude!

order wasn't ready at pickup time and then 1 of the items not in stock despite me selecting that store specifically because it was all in stock....but store manager went above and beyond to get it within an hour for me and result was all good....he was most helpful whilst obviously run off his feet with orders and walk in...so was all good and i would go back anytime... thanks
great delivery
Was super impressed with the speed that my paint arrived! I ordered it the night before and it came the next day in the afternoon - loved it :)
Fast delivery
Fast delivery, quick and easy process. Ordered the night before and then delivered at a reasonable cost early the next day
