Higgins is proudly Australian family-owned-and-operated

From Perth to Melbourne, Wollongong to Cairns and everywhere in between, Higgins is proud to be Australian family-owned-and-operated. This is our story.


Born out of the hard work and endeavour of Gerry Higgins in 1949, Higgins' founding principles are still present in 2021.

While a lot has changed in the nature of our operations since our inception, our passion for delivering operational excellence has not.

With 19 branches nationally and the third generation of Higgins' working in the business today, Higgins truly is Australia's largest painting family since 1949.

The growth we have experienced did not take place overnight, nor by sheer luck - it took a commitment to customer service,  consistent throughout all of the business.

At each of our 19 branches, we're big enough to deliver, small enough to care - when you work with us you'll be collaborating with our national network of local experts.

We're proud of everything we have accomplished so far, however none would be possible without the amazing people we have working at all levels of the business.

We implement development plans and programs to help our people grow and get good at what they do, day in, day out. After all our people are our greatest asset.

As a premier commercial painting contractor, our impact spans beyond just an outstanding painting project. 

At Higgins we recognise that to provide long-lasting value, you have to give back to the communities you operate within, which is why we support a number of incredible organisations ranging from sporting clubs and charity groups, to schools.
