How to choose a painter here

  • Licence for bigger jobs. In NSW, painting work valued over $5,000 (labour plus materials) requires a tradesperson certificate or contractor licence — confirm it for whole-house or exterior jobs.
  • Preparation is everything. Ask what surface prep is included — sanding, filling, priming and undercoating are the difference between a job that lasts and one that peels.
  • Coastal-grade products. Salt air is hard on exteriors; ask about weatherproof and anti-mould paints suited to the Illawarra.
  • Insurance and a written quote. Confirm public liability cover and get the number of coats, brand and scope in writing.

FAQ

  • Do painters need a licence in NSW? Yes for work over $5,000 — verify with NSW Fair Trading. Smaller jobs may not require one.
  • How many coats should I expect? Usually a primer or undercoat plus two top coats — confirm in the quote.
  • Free to contact? Always — you deal with the painter directly.
