    I have nothing but praise for Ballarat Trade Services and in particular with Shane, extraordinaire, Carpenter. My request was swiftly activated, and I was keep advised as to the entire process. Not only was the completed job executed in a professional and speedy manner but also, Shane fit in with the most suitable times for me. I was advised as to the best plan of action, and nothing seemed too much trouble for him. This is the second time I have used Ballarat Trade Services and not only thank them but highly recommend them to new clients. Actually, I have passed on my opinion to my neighbours who asked me if I knew a reliable company to use for home maintenance. Thank you Jen

    Great on the day service which fixed our leaking shower mixer. Also applied some waterproofing in wall to seal the final work which provided piece of mind. Great quality work!

    It was great engaging Ballarat Trade services. 1 call to Greg and he was prompt and professional in fixing our problem in our little old heritage cottage. He then organized the relevant trades to attend and for added peace of mind went over and above to ensure everything was good, safe and in working order. Highly recommend this 1 stop shop.

    Josh and his team came everyday to check what was happening with my plaster ceiling repair (a long story). I was always informed of time to expect them and they always turned up on time. They all did excellent work and cleaned up afterwards. Very happy and will definitely use Ballarat Trade Services again and recommend.

    Recently had my bathroom renovated. Excellent quality of work. My bathroom looks beautiful. Tradies showed up on time. Cheaper than anywhere else and they pretty much stuck to the original quote they gave me, despite finding water damage! If I could give them 6 stars I would.

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 Ballarat Trade Services have a verified ABN?
Yes. Ballarat Trade Services has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
