    Dealing with Harry at Melbourne Protective Coatings was a great experience. He is a true professional in that he delivered on the roof repair and coating according to what was promised in an efficient and stress free manor that made the project a breeze to complete. His follow up after completing the work was also very reassuring.

    A very happy customer of MPC. Communication was great from sales through to completion. Everyone was friendly and not pushy. The boys who completed the job (especially Damien) was professional and 100% thorough. Picking up a spot that was missed on the post review (I didn’t spot it, he did), so he jumped backed up to ensure it was fixed. I saved around 60-70% going down this route instead of a reroof and the fact it comes with a warranty, I feel confident that I’ll have no more leaks. I think the photos speak for themselves. Thanks all!!!

    Harry and his team at Melbourne Protective Coatings did an amazing job to restore our rusty roof using their anti-corrosion waterproof membrane. Harry is an awesome guy and a pleasure to work with. From discussing options, putting together a quote, finding a block of warm, dry days in the middle of winter to start the work, and even doing some extra painting for free, Harry and his team made this so easy. The quality of their work is excellent and was so much cheaper than a new roof. I would highly recommend Harry and his team for any painting work, especially if it’s something technical like properly restoring a rusty roof.

    Harry and his team of Ryan, Lucille, Steve, and Jake recently painted our double storey weatherboard house in Blackburn. They arrived on time every day and were always happy to start their work. Harry spent quite a bit of his time prior to the job to discuss colours, times, and costs etc. Harry was patient as we could not make up our minds about colours. He pointed us in the right direction. Harry kept us informed via text or call on what was going to be painted each day and who, out of his team, would be there. The team were professional and polite at all times. We were amazed at how much preparation (including a full clean of the weatherboards) that they did. The team took pride in their work, the finish of the painting, and the house was left tidy every day. Harry completed some extra work for us that we weren’t expecting. We were very grateful for this. We are very happy with the look of our house and have had numerous people tell us how good it looks. A special thanks to Ryan and Steve, who were able to patch two tricky parts on our front verandah rail and fascia. They look as good as new. I thoroughly recommend the team at Melbourne Protective Coatings for your next paint job.

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.
