    Alex and family are a fantastic crew. Not only are my ceilings immaculately painted, Alex repaired AC vent holes, damaged cornice and ceiling plaster, and a wall to the point where everything looks as new. This is a great local business - professional, punctual and good communicators and the pride they take in their work is obvious. I will use them again and would recommend them wholeheartedly.

    Alex and his team are not painters, they are master restorers! Our 1940s miner's cottage was in need of major work. The 12ft ornate ceilings and cracked horse hair plaster walls needed major repairs. Alex offered solutions and did major restorative work. His prep work, set us up for a great finish. He only uses top quality products. We are so happy with the results. Charlestown Painting also worked around our schedule, as we worked from home. Nothing was too much of a bother for Alex. Anyone looking for quality work should choose Alex and his team. Anna and Jack Sharpe

    Best painter in town! Alex is precise and has impeccable attention to detail. We had major issues with the paint in our house. It’s was pealing everywhere! Alex took the time to sand the whole house back, sealed it and then painted over the walls. Once he was finished he checked every wall and to make sure it was perfect. I’ll be getting him back to do more work in the future. I’ll attach some of the before and after below.

    Geoff and Joanne My wife and I thank Alex and his team for their excellent internal painting of our residence. They completed an internal paint job with 20 colours and finishes to our specification. Alex performed minor restoration to ensure a lasting and professional finish. His preparation and attention to detail is second to none. We are overjoyed with the completed effect and would certainly recommend Alex to anyone who is willing to pay a little extra for a superior job. Throughout the work Alex, Alan and the team were personable, approachable, meticulous, knowledgeable, and professional. Their work ethic is superb. All work was carried out on time, with minimal mess and no additional cleanup required. They took great care in relocating and protecting furniture and floor coverings to ensure that no damage occurred. Thanks Alex. Regards, Geoff Pitkin

    Alex and his family did a wonderful job painting the interior of our house, repairing all cracks and imperfections as they located them.

We thoroughly recommend Alex and the team due to their outstanding work.

Painting costs & guides

Frequently asked questions

How much do painters typically charge?
Painting costs depend on the size of the job, the condition of existing surfaces, and whether the work is interior, exterior or both. Jobs requiring significant preparation such as sanding, filling or priming will generally cost more than a straightforward repaint over sound surfaces. Most painters quote per square metre or per room, with exterior work and multi-storey access typically attracting higher rates. This page shows live pricing for jobs in your area.
Do painters need a licence in Australia?
Yes. In most Australian states and territories, painters carrying out domestic work above a certain value must hold a trade-specific licence or registration. Licensing requirements and thresholds vary by jurisdiction — for example, NSW requires a Contractor Licence for painting work. A licensed painter should be able to provide their licence number on request, and you can verify it with your state's building authority.
How should I prepare my home before painters arrive?
Most painters will handle masking, drop sheets and surface preparation as part of the job, but clearing the area of furniture, wall hangings and fragile items beforehand helps the job run smoothly and may reduce your quote. For exterior work, ensure the painter has clear access to all walls and that garden beds or outdoor furniture are moved back. Discuss any specific concerns like lead paint, mould or moisture damage before work begins so the painter can plan accordingly.
Does Charlestown Painting have a verified ABN?
Yes. Charlestown Painting has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
