What does house painting involve? 

While many who undertake interior house painting as DIY, some often forget the challenges it can come with. Buying all the equipment, including a ladder depending on the height of your ceilings, uneven results, paint dripping down the walls or onto the floor and furniture, applying paint the wrong way (yes, that’s a thing!), there are many things that can go wrong. At Wes Hull Painters, we’ve been in the industry for many years and have perfected our craft. We will protect your furniture, prep your walls, and provide options on the best paint for your wall type and aesthetic goals. 

No matter if you live in a house, apartment, or townhouse, we’ve got you covered! There are a variety of surfaces that can be painted in a house, including walls, ceilings, trim, and doors, not to mention whether these are wood, metal, brick, laminate, concrete, drywall, or ceramic. We will help you choose the right paint for the right surface all the while, keeping an eye out for any imperfections that need to be patched up.

How long does it take to paint a house? 

The length of time a paint job will take depends on the size of the project, prep work, weather, condition of the surfaces, and the number of coats needed (typically two coats are standard, however, lighter colours may need extra coats to achieve a smooth and even finish). For an average three-bedroom home, you can expect 5 days for interior house painting. This is something we can provide an estimate of when we are at your property providing a quote. 

How much does it cost to paint a house in Brisbane?

You can expect the average price of house painting in Brisbane to be around $40 per square metre, including the ceiling. Because we charge by the square metre, the overall cost of house painting depends on the size of your home and how many rooms are being painted. However, other factors can come into play too, including:

• Height of the ceilings
• Total area covered
• Number of rooms to paint
• Type of paint used
• Number of colours used
• Condition of the walls
• Decorative plaster
• Feature walls

When it comes to preparing a quote, we take all of these factors and more into consideration but the average cost of painting a Brisbane home is anywhere from $6,500

Why should I hire a professional painter?

We know a lot of clients wonder if paying a professional painter is worth the cost but at Wes Hull Painters, we’ve got plenty of reasons why you should hire us. Though some people may love a DIY project, others may not. Even when you do your own home project, it could take you days or weeks to get it completed, getting distracted and side-tracked by everything around you.

When you hire a professional painter, we dedicate our whole day to the job and can give you an estimated timeframe for completion. With this spare time on your hands, you can still be social or take the kids out for the day. 

We’ll also provide expert advice on your interior design. We’ve got a knack for knowing what colours will suit each style home and we know what’s currently trending in the market if you’re looking to sell. Once those colours are chosen, we provide an end-to-end service where we prep your walls, paint, and clean up after ourselves.

We’ll also inspect our paint job and discuss if there’s anything that you’re not satisfied with. Until you’re absolutely happy with your paint job, our job will not be considered complete. 

But the number one reason to hire a professional – is the results! We’ve been doing this for years, we’re using the exact amount of paint needed (no wasted money on buying too much!), we have all the tools and equipment (so you don’t have to go out and buy them), and we use premium paints that are made for Queensland weather and have a high-quality finish.

Not to mention with our attention to detail, we’ll notice all those small kinks and imperfections in your wall that need to be patched to provide a beautiful interior that you’re proud of.
