Terrible scammers

Eco Living Interior

I got my money back by opening a PayPal dispute. If you used a card, contact your bank and request a chargeback. Report them to the ACCC.

I ordered and they emailed back very fast. Then...nothing. I called, went to their office, emailed, all to no avail.

Purchased in for $270.

Paint is good

Eco Living Interior

The paint is good, however it took six weeks to arrive. When I phoned to find out what was happening, my calls were never picked up and phone messages never replied to. After a few weeks I sent emails and did get some 'it's being looked into' replies.
In fairness to Ecolour, the delivery delay was the couriers who apparently misplaced the parcel, but it was distressing not to have any of my many phone calls to Ecolour replied to, especially when it dragged on for six weeks.
Having said that, the paint, which I'm now using is good. Goes on easily, a nice finish and hardly any smell.
Later - I put in a 2nd order and it arrived promptly. Very happy with the paint, would definitely use it again.

Love this paint!

Eco Living Interior Low Sheen

We're so impressed with the quality of the eColour paint, and very grateful for the excellent customer service we received.

The application is just like every other paint. But it's so much better, because there's no nasty smells, it dries really fast, and it looks beautiful. We slept in the rooms that night, and there was no smell at all.

The customer service from Nathan was excellent. He always took the time to answer all of my questions, which made the process so much easier, and so much more pleasant. Truly appreciated.

Great experience.

Eco Living Interior Low Sheen

Customer service was exceptional. Some very helpful advice was provided over the telephone. I ordered online and the paint was delivered to my door (in Adelaide) less than 24 hours after ordering!
The paint provided great coverage on the bedroom Walls (2 coats), and had minimal smell on application. The tint was exactly what I asked for.
My painter initially complained that the paint was too thin (thinner than other conventional brands he was used to using), however he soon got used to the consistency and was able to complete the job to an excellent standard.

Great for people who are sensitive to chemicals

Eco Living Interior Satin

Using to paint doors and trim.
Very happy with a paint that doesn’t make my wife feel ill.
Customer service phoned us to check the colour before dispatch (pure white, no tint required)
Paint arrived within a few days of ordering.
Will be using them in the future.

Such an ethical company

Eco Living Interior Satin

We're using their paint for our 50's restoration. In this instance, a Cottage Cream gloss for kitchen cabinet doors. Rolls on very smoothly, dries very quickly, zero VOCs, a couple of coats & the result is great. When we want more paint, we'll be coming back to Ecolour

Wonderful finish with no toxic fumes

Eco Living Interior Low Sheen

Used it on the whole interior of our house. Works brilliantly and doesn't smell bad or have any toxic fumes. We will definitely continue to use this paint. Delivery and phone service was also great.

Good paint - try it!

Eco Living Interior Satin

Can said 20 mins touch dry and re-coat in 2 hours; spot on timing; finish was excellent - very smooth and not too glossy; went on easily, especially with roller. Painted change table for baby, so wanted a non toxic paint - very hard to source, so worth the cost and delivery(which was very prompt too). Because I had raw timber in spots I applied an undercoat/primer and sanded between each coat(lightly). Used 3 coats, but 2 would have been enough!

Questions & Answers

I purchased 4L of a colour they come back and say they couldn't make up. I got a response in March updating them I am not ready. And within the time of figuring out a new colour, plastering and priming. It seems the shop is closed, phone dead, no email and they owe me money about $100. I should have asked for a refund. They moved from Byron Bay and have never been a problem before every time I order paint.

Is the shop closed now ? I needed more primer I only just recently ordered paint.

How do I get my money back now ? I'm forced to look for paint elsewhere but is not going to match the walls. Its a Taubmans and they dont do ultra low VOC like Dulux has now. I may be forced to repaint all the walls. Touching up in the future will be hard too.

Yeah, the business has disappeared. I got a refund because I paid via PayPal with buyer protection. PayPal investigated the case and issued me a refund. Their business phone is dead, although if you send an email as a new customer to order paint - they will reply and take your money, but don't expect any paint. It was a great business, something changed? Maybe someone new bought it and they couldn't manage it properly. Who knows? I wouldn't recommend doing business with these people. You might have to cut your losses and look elsewhere.

This is very bad. I have Taubmans Snowbank on the wall. It means I have to repaint everything and lost thousands. Taubmans ultra low VOC has toxic Microban in it and claim greentag. Dulux has an Enviro2 option but no idea how much that is. There is a company called Tint who could go the same way as Ecolour I'm not sure if its worth the risk. There was not much options at the time in 2019. Porter's paints is low VOC but $150 a tin.

I'm looking at Porter's Paint. Its low VOC and green tag but so much more expensive than Ecolour and doesnt match Dulux and Taaubmans. Painttint might be too risky and do a runner too. I did not expect this, they did a runner with my money I have had to ask consumer affairs how to reclaim my money, it was months ago I purchased and only got one of the 4L buckets because they couldnt match a Dulux. It looks like I have to repaint the whole house with a different brand and colour. And the 4L of Auburn Flair I bought is a waste if I can't get more of the same paint again. Its another Taubmans. I cant even touch up the skirtings so have to buy a different eco enamel and colour in Porter's paint or paintint or Enviro2 as last resort.

Dulux Enviro2 undercoat only comes in 10-15L. Dulux do a non green tagged low VOC undercoat or it's porters paint undercoat. Taken all week to figure out.

Hi, apologies for no response, this is not a site regularly monitored (we don't get notifications when questions posted which makes things tricky). Better later than never I guess. 15L in Eco Living Low Sheen is $226. All information available at www.ecolour.com.au Regards, Ecolour
