Painting Prices Sydney
Every painting project is different, so the final cost depends on the size and condition of the property, the amount of preparation required, access, the type of surfaces and the paint system selected.
For most house painting projects in Sydney, Vakker Australia provides a free onsite inspection followed by a clear written quotation. We can quote complete projects as well as separate interior painting and exterior painting work.
Our aim is to give you a realistic price based on the actual work required rather than an inaccurate estimate made without seeing the property.
PAINTING PRICES & HOURLY RATES
Most larger residential, commercial and strata painting projects are individually priced following an onsite inspection. We assess the scope of work, access, surface condition, preparation required and materials before preparing a clear written quotation.
How our pricing works
For larger projects, the agreed quotation is the basis for the work rather than an hourly rate. This gives you a clear understanding of the scope, expected work and price before the project begins.
The hourly rates shown below are mainly used for smaller jobs, minor repairs, additional work, or work requested outside the original quoted scope. Materials are not included unless otherwise stated.
If you would like a free, no-obligation quote, we will be happy to arrange an onsite inspection anywhere within our Sydney service area.

What affects house painting costs in Sydney?
The cost of painting two similar-looking properties can be very different. Preparation, access and the condition of existing surfaces often have as much impact on the final price as the size of the property itself.
Factors that affect painting prices
- Size and layout of the property
- Condition of walls, ceilings and exterior surfaces
- Amount of sanding, filling and repair work required
- Interior, exterior or complete house painting
- Access, working height and difficult-to-reach areas
- Number of colours and types of finishes selected
- Paint systems and materials required for the project
For more information, see our house painting services in Sydney.
What is included in our written quotes?

- Agreed scope of painting work
- Required surface preparation
- Relevant repairs and priming
- Protection of surrounding areas
- Selected paint system and finishes
- Access requirements
- Expected project timeframe

Frequently asked questions about painting prices
How much does it cost to paint a house in Sydney?
There is no single price that applies to every property. House painting costs depend on the size and condition of the home, preparation required, access, surfaces, finishes and whether the project involves interior painting, exterior painting or both.
For this reason, we normally inspect the property before providing a clear written quotation. You can learn more about our house painting services in Sydney.
Do you provide free painting quotes?
Yes. For most larger painting projects, Vakker Australia provides a free, no-obligation onsite inspection followed by a clear written quotation.
Do you charge painting work by the hour?
Most larger painting projects are quoted as a complete scope of work rather than charged by the hour. Hourly rates are mainly used for smaller jobs, minor additional work, repairs or work requested outside the original quoted scope.
Are materials included in the hourly rates?
Materials are not included in the hourly rates unless otherwise stated. For larger quoted projects, the written quotation explains what is included in the agreed price.
Can you quote interior and exterior painting separately?
Yes. We can quote complete house painting projects or individual areas depending on what you need. See our interior painting and exterior painting pages for more information.
