    I’ve had the chance to see Sam’s painting work firsthand, and the quality is genuinely impressive. His attention to detail, smooth finishes, and professional approach really stand out. Sam clearly takes pride in his work, and it shows in the way he prepares surfaces properly, applies clean and consistent coats, and delivers a polished final result. Everyone I know who has used his service has spoken highly of his reliability and friendly communication. Based on the workmanship I’ve seen and the positive feedback from others, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sam to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy painter. His dedication and craftsmanship make him an excellent choice for any painting project.

    Sam was recommended to us by another painter who was not able to take on any new work. As well as delivering a quality painting job, Sam was an excellent communicator, provided helpful advice and suggestions and was very upfront and honest in his assessment of the options we were considering. It was a relatively small, external painting project but Sam's attention was top class. We would not hesitate to use Sam's services again and thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking for a highly competent professional who is also a pleasure to deal with.

    I have used Sam and his team to paint my home for 10 years now. Sam is an expert with paint and does a phenomenal job with tricky old homes. His work is always neat and tidy. The price is very reasonable and Sam himself is honest, reliable and trustworthy. I can not recommend Sam more highly.

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.
