    If you’re looking for a true professional painter and a master craftsman of his trade, you’ve found him! Alex is from the UK and genuinely loves being a painter and it shows in both the quality of his work and his genuine attitude. He’s bloody good at giving old rooms a new lease of life. Always on time, super trustworthy and great communication throughout. Highly recommend. Will be having him back for more work!

    Alex did an absolutely fantastic job painting our house! He was professional, punctual, and took great pride in his work. The attention to detail was outstanding, and the finish looks amazing — we couldn’t be happier with the result. Alex was also great to deal with throughout the whole process, from colour advice to leaving everything spotless at the end. We highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a quality painter who truly cares about his work.

    Ardian from Ardec Painting and Decorating did an outstanding job painting our entire home. From start to finish, he was great to deal with. He was professional, friendly, and clear in communication. His preparation work was meticulous, ensuring every surface was perfectly ready before painting, which really shows in the flawless finish. The job site was kept super neat and tidy throughout, and the attention to detail was exceptional. We’re thrilled with the result and would highly recommend Ardian to anyone looking for top-quality painting and decorating. Thanks Again Alex!

    Outstanding painter – highly recommend! Alex did an amazing job painting my entire townhouse. He did an excellent job from start to finish. Great communication, very knowledgeable, and always raised potential issues instead of just painting over them. Alex had a reliable network of tradespeople for extra work, and coordinated with additional trades seamlessly. Entire scope of work was completed on time and per quote budget. Can’t recommend highly enough!

    Really impressed by the workmanship we experienced from Ardec Painting and Decorating and can't recommend them enough. Our old house desperately needed a make over and despite it being a larger property, Alex was completely thorough and provided us with some great ideas we hadn't even thought of. Will be getting Alex to paint the outside next.

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 Ardec Painting & Decorating have a verified ABN?
Yes. Ardec Painting & Decorating has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
