How much does exterior painting cost?

The price depends on the included elevations and elements, substrate condition, access, preparation, repairs, products and colour changes. We inspect those variables and provide a fixed written price for the agreed scope.

How long will an exterior repaint take?

Duration depends on the included surfaces, access, preparation, repair work, drying requirements and weather. The proposed start date and duration are confirmed for the inspected scope in your written quote.

What happens if the weather changes?

We check forecast and surface conditions against the specified product requirements. If conditions are unsuitable, the affected coating work is delayed and the updated sequence is communicated.

Do you paint Queenslander and character homes?

We assess Queenslander and character-home repainting projects, including weatherboard, VJ walls, fretwork and detailed timber. The inspection identifies access, coating condition, preparation and any testing or specialist work needed before we quote.

What if lead paint is known or suspected?

Tell us before the inspection. Older coatings can require testing, containment, a revised preparation method or specialist referral. Those requirements must be identified before sanding or removal work is included.

Which exterior products do you use?

We specify primer and topcoat products for the substrate, existing coating and exposure. The exact product schedule, colour, sheen and coat count are recorded in the written quote.

What warranty applies to exterior painting?

Included exterior painting carries SQPD’s written 5-year workmanship warranty. Product manufacturer warranties, where applicable, are separate and depend on the specified coating system.

Which suburbs do you service?

We focus on Brisbane's western corridor, from Oxley to Bardon, with priority service in Kenmore, Chapel Hill, Toowong and Sherwood.

Exterior quality depends on the condition under the coating, the access, preparation and compatible product system.

Included elevations and building elements identified individually

Substrate, existing coating and visible defects recorded during inspection

Access, height, landscaping and protection requirements confirmed

Cleaning, scraping, sanding, filling, caulking and priming stated in the scope

Repair allowances and variation triggers identified

Primer, topcoat, colour, sheen and coat count recorded

Final walkthrough and product record supplied at handover

How we work

From Elevation Inspection to Handover

Six controlled stages, with surface and weather conditions treated as quality gates.

Inspect each elevation

We identify the included walls, eaves, fascia, gutters, windows, doors, timber and other elements, then record condition and access.

Assess defects and risk

Peeling, chalking, cracking, rust, staining, moisture indicators, damaged timber and suspected hazardous coatings are recorded before quoting.

Define preparation

The quote states the cleaning, removal of failed coating, sanding, filling, caulking, treatment and priming included for the inspected condition.

Specify the products

Primer and topcoat systems are selected for the substrate and exposure, then recorded with colour, sheen and coat count.

Prepare and coat

Work proceeds only when the surface and weather suit the specified system. Newly discovered conditions are documented before additional work.

Inspect and hand over

We review the included elements against the scope and provide product, colour, care and workmanship-warranty information.

Quality controls

Preparation and Conditions Before the Finish

Condition Recorded First

The quote starts with the actual substrate, existing coating, visible defects and access rather than a standard exterior package.

System Matched to Surface

Preparation, primer and topcoat are treated as one compatible system selected for the inspected surface and exposure.

Weather Is a Hold Point

Exterior coating work is rescheduled when weather or surface conditions conflict with the specified product requirements.
