What is the cost to paint exterior of house in Australia?

The cost of painting a home varies on several factors including the state of condition of the building’s substrate – i.e. new building vs one that requires a great deal of repair before painting. Other factors include whether the building needs washing, rendering fixes, and the access of the property. Does it need special height equipment or can the work be done from the ground level. 

How much does it cost to paint a house interior?

As a general rule of thumb, it will cost anywhere from $250 to $400 per room, depending on the size of the room, to paint. It also depends on whether you want a standard paint job, special finishes, and the condition of the walls i.e. does it need repair and lots of surface preparation before painting?  The more rooms you need to be painted in a single job, the less the cost per room will be in the end.

What is the best exterior house paint?

We are a Dulux accredited painter so we only use Dulux products and use Dulux methodology to prepare surfaces and apply the coating system. 

How to choose exterior paint colours for your house?

Apart from looking at colour trends, you should consider, is the substrate right for dark or deep hues, or will it get too dirty with an off-white? What suits the surrounding environment? Will the colour last the test of time? What colour are the other features of the building such as window and door frames? 

Do you provide a warranty with your work?

Yes, we provide a 5-year workmanship warranty that warrants we will repair any work that is a result of our workmanship. There is also a 15-year warranty on Dulux Weathershield paints.
