    I have been working with trades for 35 years and the personal care and technical capability of Peter Keys of Faraday and Kent is something that would be incredibly hard to beat. Despite the challenges of weather and Christmas, Peter produced a certain magic that many would have no hope of achieving. Whilst the job itself is of the highest standard, I think it is the personal care with which he conducted himself that makes him quite literally top of his industry. Deliberately ensuring our family was not disrupted and caring for the welfare of our dogs was astonishing and to complete a job of this magnitude so seamlessly without issue is beyond belief. I am poised to write a glowing report as such to support the above as I think everyone would be best served by working with Peter Keys

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.
