    Bill and the team were fantastic from start to finish. We had a very big job (4x townhouses full colour scheme change) and our townhouse had to be completed in a certain time period. Bill and team were all great to deal with (thanks heaps Raph and the rest of the guys too), the price quoted was fair and the team did a great job getting stuck in and powering through the job to meet the timeframe without sacrificing on quality or care. All of the painters working on the job were polite and friendly and we felt comfortable having them in and out of our home when we weren’t home. Any requests we had during the process were easily accommodated without any hassle , and the finished job speaks for itself - excellent. We will be using Melbourne City Maintenance again for sure.

    Bill and his team (Raph and John) were fantastic. Polite, professional, hard working, efficient. Bill was very patient with our questions and requests. He has a great, calm demeanour and clearly explained everything, from the very first contact to the last. He did a little extra work for us that was not on the original quote, and the additional cost was very reasonable. We had a nightmare experience with the first painter we hired, and Bill restored our faith. The finished product looks great, and we have gotten many compliments from our neighbours. I would recommend Bill, Raph, John, and Melbourne City Maintenance with no reservations whatsoever.

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 Melbourne City Maintenance have a verified ABN?
Yes. Melbourne City Maintenance has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
