    I’m happy and satisfied with the painting of my property in Cairns completed by Express Paint company. Shan (owner/director) is very responsive and affirmative to all my requests. He has a pool of staff who are wonderful and good with their jobs. They transformed my looking dilapidated house and garage into brand new look. I’m happy to get their services again next time and to endorse them.

    Kerrod and his team far exceeded expectations on our job. Big job, interior and exterior, high vaulted ceilings etc. He did bits and pieces that were not in the original scope but he just got them done anyway - example patching / painting blemishes, sanding out imperfections on walls and replastering. During the walk through he showed me all the things he wasn’t happy with and that he’d redo certain areas, which is to be expected on a larger job. We didn’t need to ask for anything, he just got on with it all. Cleaned, vacuumed, mopped when they were done. Couldn’t speak highly enough if this business, well done mate.

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 Express Paint have a verified ABN?
Yes. Express Paint has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
