    I cannot fault the work done by Steven and his team. They have just finished a large job in my house, and Steven and Steve have been fantastic. They are meticulous in their approach. The prep work is detailed, as is the paint work. They pay attention to the small things as well as the large. Their clean up is perfect. The final product and look in my home is fabulous. They turned up on time every day, did not mess me around with changing schedules. Rather, they fitted their work into and around my time requirements. They communicated clearly with me in the discussions around what I wanted, how I wanted it done, and how I wanted it to look. Every single requirement I had was met. I highly recommend Steven and his team to anyone looking for good quality painting work for their home. Addendum: A couple of weeks ago I had Steven on my roof painting it with Solacoat. As always, a professional team doing a professional job. And yes, you can definitely tell the difference in the house from the pre-paint to the post-paint. Many thanks again Steven for a great job.

    Upon our first contact with Steve from Shelley Contracting we were very impressed by his Industry knowledge and sound advice. We were not looking for a budget job and definitely needed a premium quality job with a look that said wow what a brilliant choice of colours to complement our high end Car building business. These guys at Shelley Contracting delivered a supremely outstanding result using all Dulux Paint products. Our Company logo colour is green. The vivid Green paint colour that Shelley Contracting chose to go with, along with the Black painted highlights absolutely pops and stands right out. We have had many positive comments about our Industrial buildings appearance. Shelley Contracting can only be highly recommended after producing such an amazing transformation. Shelley Contracting have even gone to the trouble and effort to call back and check on the job some months later. A big thanks to Steve in particular.

    We have used Shelley Contracting for two projects now. The first was inside our house which hadn’t been painted in about 15 years so it was a big job. And the second we’ve just completed which was to update the outside of our home. The team at Shelley Contracting is reliable, meticulous and provide a very high quality service. They provide the extras that most painters don’t - doing small repairs, bogging gaps and thoroughly cleaning surfaces - to ensure the result is perfect! Highly recommend

    Have known Steve for many years, recently called on him for advice on painting the interior of my house and also the roof. Stephen was of great assistance to my wife & myself and did a great job inside and after doing the roof with Solar coat the difference in temperature was enormous. Great Job & Happy wife, thanks Steve.

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.
