    Smart Hand Painting is the best! The owner Garry is a quick communicator, efficient, professional, reliable and always punctual plus delivers truly exceptional work. He's transformed both the interior and exterior of our home on three different occasions, and we're already planning future projects with him. A particular highlight was a floor to ceiling 5.5-6m high staircase area where Garry carefully managed to paint the entire wall. It was a really difficult area that many painters had flagged with us in earlier quotes. Garry wasn’t phased and just got on with it in safe and professional way! We've also confidently recommended him to our friends, family, and colleagues, and the consistently positive feedback speaks volumes. Garry from Smart Hands Painting is one of kind with great attention to detail, and also the easiest tradesperson we’ve dealt with.

    Garry and his team helped us with painting our entire house (interior and exterior), garage and driveway. Garry was transparent in our dealings, easy to communicate with and provided a reasonable price for the job. He often gave value-add advice on colour selection, and completed the work in the quoted time with a quality finish. Would highly recommend Garry as a skilled painter and an honest personality to anyone wishing to avail of his services.

    Garry did a great job painting my house. The finish was top notch, and he gave great advice as to the choice of paints to use. The price was very reasonable. I'll use him in the future.

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 Smart Hand Painting have a verified ABN?
Yes. Smart Hand Painting has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
