I recently had a Gareth and his team of painters working in my home and I couldn’t be happier with the result. They did a fantastic job, were very professional, punctual, and took great care in their work. The finish looks amazing and the house was left clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for quality painting

I had a great experience with Distinct Painters. Gareth was very responsive to my request for a quote and booking the work in at a convenient time. I wanted the whole interior of a 3 bedroom house painted, ceilings, walls and woodwork.The guys who did the painting were excellent, friendly and helpful and very neat painters. Any questions I had were easily and promptly dealt with. I am very pleased with the result and it was excellent value for money.

The transformation of our tired brown bricks to a fresh vibrant coat of white by Distinct Painters Adelaide team was nothing short of exemplary. We contacted the painters and they arranged a time to come and take a look. The quote was sent that evening and we locked in a date to get the job done. Very happy with the price quoted for two guys to spend almost 3 days here making sure the coverage was perfect. Lots of prep work was done and the clean up and final result is better than we had hoped for! Thank you for painting our house with such care and precision! Will recommend you to family and friends. Cheers guys!

Honestly could not recommend Gareth and the team high enough! They were brilliant to work with from start to finish. Their insight and advice was hugely appreciated for someone who knows very little about paint and colouring. The team were efficient, friendly and had a great eye for detail. They clearly cared about the project and didnt just rush through it, which can be seen with the finished product. Big thanks guys, we're stoked with the end result!

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.

How do I get a quote from Distinct Painters?

Distinct Painters lists phone, email, or through their website on this profile, so you can contact them directly for pricing and availability. Share a short scope and photos to get a faster quote.
