Painting for houses, apartments and townhouses

Different properties need different arrangements. Alongside the rooms and surfaces, we consider shared access, furniture, neighbours and the way you use the space.

Houses

Refresh selected areas or discuss a more extensive repaint. Tell us whether the work is inside, outside or both. For a full repaint with an agreed sequence of work, explore our house painting services.

Apartments and units

Tell us about the rooms, ceilings, doors and trims, plus parking, lift access and building requirements. We can discuss your own apartment’s interior. For shared corridors and common property, see strata painting.

Townhouses

Townhouse painting can include rooms, stairs and selected exterior areas. Identify what belongs to your property and whether outside work needs approval. We’ll discuss access and the areas to include.

Plan the work around your home

Let us know whether the property is occupied, empty or changing occupants. This helps us discuss the scope and the arrangements needed before work starts.

While you live at home

We’ll discuss access, protection and the rooms you need to keep using. Tell us about children, pets and furniture so we can plan the sequence around the agreed work.

Before a move or sale

Share your dates and priorities early. An onsite assessment helps identify preparation that photos may not show and clarify what is practical within the available time.

Between tenants

Tell us who will provide access and approve the work, which areas need attention and any proposed tenancy dates. We’ll confirm the scope and timing we can offer.

Real work, from preparation to the finished home

A townhouse repaint in Maroubra

This project included surface preparation, patching and sanding, wall and ceiling painting, and painting the internal metal stair balustrade. The photographs and film below are from the same townhouse.

What to tell us when requesting a quote

Your property

Give the suburb and tell us whether it is a house, apartment, unit or townhouse, and whether it is occupied.

The work you want

List the rooms or outside areas, including walls, ceilings, doors and trims where relevant. Mention peeling paint, cracks or previous water damage.

Access and restrictions

Include stairs, parking, lift bookings, furniture and any building access arrangements.

Your preferred timing

Share moving or tenancy dates. Photos help us understand the enquiry; an onsite assessment helps confirm the condition and scope.

What affects the cost of residential painting?

The quote depends on the areas included, the condition of the existing finish and the preparation needed. Repairs, access and chosen finishes can all affect the cost.

Two properties with the same number of bedrooms may need quite different work. Include ceilings, doors, trims and exterior areas in your enquiry where relevant so the scope is clear from the start.

See our painting pricing information for a starting point, then request an onsite quote for your property.

Residential painting questions

More general information is available in our painting FAQs.

Do you paint apartments and units as well as houses?

Yes. We provide residential painting for houses, apartments and townhouses. For an apartment or unit, tell us whether the enquiry is for your own interior or shared building areas. Common-property work should be discussed through our strata painting service.

It depends on the areas being painted, access and the work involved. Tell us which rooms need to remain usable, along with any concerns about children, pets or furniture. We’ll discuss the arrangements before work starts.

Yes. Include the proposed access dates, rooms or surfaces needing attention, and who will approve the work. We’ll assess the scope and confirm the timing we can offer. Photos are helpful for the initial enquiry.

Let us know what will remain in the work areas. We’ll discuss protection and access, including furniture that may need to be moved. Agree arrangements for heavy items or storage before work begins.

Photos help us understand the property and areas you want painted. They may not show all surface damage or access issues, so we normally assess the property onsite before confirming the written quote.

Tell us about past or current leaks. The cause needs to be addressed and the surface suitable for preparation before repainting. We’ll discuss the condition and preparation within our scope; painting alone does not repair the source of a leak.

Tell us about your property

Tell us your suburb, the type of property and the rooms or surfaces you want painted. Include concerns about the existing finish, access or preferred timing. You can attach a photo to help us understand the work.

For a mixed residential scope, choose Other and describe the areas in your message.
