I have recently had Gavin paint the full interior of my 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house. He was quick to respond and easy to work with. He provided me with a competitive quote and a breakdown of works to be carried out. Gavin followed up on his quote with a phone call explaining his approach. He was efficient with his work and didn’t compromise on the outcome, it is superb. I will be recommending him to anyone in need of a painter.

Gavin and his team did an absolutely fantastic job on our house. All our dealings with Gav from the get go were A+. Gav turned up on time to inspect the house before providing us with by far and away the best quote to prep and paint the interior of our house which is 90+ years old. Gav has meticulous attention to detail, a no fuss attitude and is an all round lovely guy to deal with. My husband and I highly recommend Hunter Coast Painting to anyone looking for a top class job. Thanks Gav!

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.
