    Highly recommended! Steve did an outstanding job of painting the outside of my house in Prospect. His preparation was meticulous and that set the stage for a simply beautiful transformation of my home. He kept me informed of progress each day and doubled-checked all the colour choices early in the process. Steve also thoughtfully overcame several painting challenges posed by the building design; he even went the extra mile by vacuuming out fallen leaves that had gathered above the back deck roofing. I felt confident to let him progress the job when I couldn’t be there and to lock up for me at the end of the day. A absolute pleasure to deal with. Thank you Steve!

    Steve and his team recently refreshed the interior of our 2 storey townhouse. It is a rental property but he and his team treated the job as if it were our own home. Even though we didn’t wish to paint the skirtings at this time, he cleaned them and they came up a treat. The walls look so smooth and clean, a testament to the care and attention given. Steve was very thorough and polite with his communication and gave progress reports throughout the job. It was completed in the time estimated (he couldn’t resist also painting a small laundry and powder room that wasn’t in the quote!) and left extremely tidy. We would not hesitate to recommend First Choice or to call on Steve again! Thanks guys, our new tenants should be very happy when they move in.

    I highly recommend First Choice Painting for any painting needs. From start to finish, the experience was fantastic. Steve provided a detailed and fair quote, and the scheduling process was very smooth. He arrived on time each day and was incredibly professional, respectful of my property, and kept the work area clean. The quality of the work is exceptional, and the house has never looked better. If you are looking for a reliable, professional, and highly skilled painter, I recommend First Choice Painting.

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.
