    We were so happy that we got Phil, Lee-Anne, their son Daniel and their young apprentice Riley from Expressions In Colour Painters to do our massive painting job at Cafe Scrumptious in the Main Street of Kingscote on Kangaroo Island. We found them to be very professional, reliable, tidy & speedy from start to finish. We found Phil to be highly knowledgeable & experienced when it came to choosing the right colours & products. They completed the job before they estimated… we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a painter - they were a great team!

    I met Phil and Lee-Anne at a conference on the Gold Coast almost 13 years ago, we had been let down too many times by other painters so Rags 'N' Rollers - Expression In Colour were one of the best things that ever happened for our building business, they would always go that extra mile, advise us of problematic issues at the start of the job so that no delays occurred and ensured our clients were fully satisfied. You could always rely on Phil - his quality workmanship, especially being a family business - we witnessed Dan doing his apprenticeship and becoming a quality tradesman, I was so disappointed when they returned to South Australia but were relieved that one of Phil's protegees stepped up and is now our painter. I would highly recommend Expression In Colour Painters to undertake your next paint job. Phil Blackmore, Award Living Builders P/L, Gold Coast

    We found Phil, and his son who worked with him, to be very friendly and helpful. They spent three days at our home, quietly went about their work, did an excellent job, cleaned up afterwards, and were good value for money. We would always welcome them back.

    I can thoroughly recommend painters Phil and Daniel from Expression in Colour Painters for their professionalism and friendliness in completion of what was an extremely difficult job of painting all the external window ledges and two outside doors and the two outside wooden walls which hadn't been touched since the house was built in 1983, a lot of of it high up and requiring ladder work. Then the inside of those external windows and doors were also painted. The two kids bedrooms were full of junk since my kids are in their fifties and they didn't complain, just moved the stuff. I cannot recommend them highly enough on the completion of a very difficult job (see pics) Maggie Patterson Ewens Street Kingscote

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 Expression In Colour Painters have a verified ABN?
Yes. Expression In Colour Painters has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
