How much does it cost to paint a house in Melbourne?
Interiors typically run $2,500–$6,000 for a standard 3-bedroom home, and exteriors $6,000–$15,000 depending on size, height and how much prep the surfaces need. We quote on site and in writing, so you get a real number rather than a range.
How long will my job take?
Most interior repaints take 2–5 days and exteriors 4–8 days, weather permitting. You get a start and finish date up front, and a text if anything moves.
Do you help with choosing colours?
Yes - a free colour consultation is included with every quote. We'll bring Dulux samples, test patches on your actual walls, and tell you honestly how a shade will read in your light.
Are you insured and licensed?
Fully insured with $20M public liability, and every painter on site is police-checked. Certificates are attached to your quote before work starts.
What paint do you use?
Premium Dulux and Taubmans systems as standard, matched to the surface - low-VOC interiors, weathershield exteriors. If you'd prefer a specific brand or a low-odour option for kids or pets, just say so.
Which suburbs do you cover?
All of metro Melbourne - including Glen Waverley, Box Hill, Doncaster, Toorak, Kew, Camberwell, Brighton, Richmond, Sunshine, Werribee and the CBD. If you're just outside, call and ask; we travel for the right job.
Do I need to move out while you paint?
No. We work room by room, cover and move furniture, and clean up each afternoon so the house stays livable throughout.
Is there a call-out fee for a quote?
No. The on-site visit, the measure-up and the colour consult are free, whether or not you go ahead.
How soon can you start?
Usually within one to two weeks for residential work, and faster for rental turnarounds and small jobs. Commercial work is scheduled around your trading hours.
What happens if something isn't right?
Tell us at the walk-through and we fix it before we invoice. After that, the 7-year workmanship warranty covers it in writing.
Do you take a deposit?
A small deposit confirms your dates on larger jobs, with the balance due on completion. Nothing is payable before you've approved the written quote.
Can you work around pets and kids?
Yes. Low-VOC and low-odour systems, sealed-off work areas, and gates and doors kept shut. Tell us at quote stage and we plan the sequence around it.
What do you do with the details I put in the quote form?
We use them to call you back, book the on-site visit and send the written quote. That is it. We do not sell or rent your details, and we will not add you to a mailing list you did not ask for. The full detail is on our privacy policy page.
Does this website track me?
No. This site sets no cookies and runs no analytics, tag manager or advertising pixel. Even the fonts are served from our own domain rather than a third party. If you arrive from a Google ad, Google may add a click identifier to the web address, which is handled under Google's own privacy policy.
Can I get my details deleted?
Yes, any time. Email us and we will tell you what we hold, correct anything wrong, or delete it, within 30 days and at no charge. If you asked for a quote and did not go ahead, we delete the enquiry after 12 months anyway.
