How much does it cost to paint the exterior of a house in Brisbane?
The price of painting a home’s exterior can vary greatly depending on a range of factors such as:
- the size and type of the house
- its current condition and the extent of repairs and preparation necessary
- the scope of work (e.g. whether we are also painting the fascia, windows, doors, gutters, water pipes etc)
- and other considerations such as number of storeys
Each of the above factors can influence the number of hours required for the job as well as the types of paint, materials and equipment.
As a general guide, exterior painting for a typical single-story 3 bedroom brick home may range somewhere between $4000 to 6000.
On the other hand, painting the exterior of a Queenslander home can often start from $20,000 upwards, given the expertise, time and intricacies involved with painting the weatherboard as well as fixtures such as fascia, windows, doors, frames, soffits, battens etc.

Do I need to be home while my house is being painted?
You don’t need to be at home while our painters are working on your property, however if you wish to remain at your house during the painting process, then of course you are very welcome to do so.
In our experience, it can be handy if you are onsite for some of the time so that our team can communicate any queries directly with you. We ideally recommend your presence during the final inspection process. This will allow us to thoroughly review the completed work, address any remaining concerns, and ensure that you are delighted with the results before we complete the finishing touches.
However, if your schedule doesn’t permit you to be home, there’s no need to worry. Our dedicated team of experienced residential painters will be on-site to oversee the project and ensure the process runs smoothly. Our staff is trained to treat your property with the utmost care, taking all necessary precautions to protect your belongings. Regardless of whether you are available onsite or offsite, we will maintain regular communication and work with you to minimise disruptions as much as possible.
How long does it take to paint the exterior of a house?
The time taken to complete an exterior house painting project can vary considerably based on the condition and requirements of your individual property.
For a typical Brisbane brick or weatherboard home, our experienced team can complete the exterior painting within a timeframe of 1 to 2 weeks, provided minimal preparation is required. However, if your home requires more extensive preparation work, such as addressing any surface imperfections or repairing damaged areas, the timeline may extend slightly.
Larger, more intricate homes, such as the iconic Queenslander-style properties, typically require a more substantial investment of time. In these cases, our team may need 2 to 4 weeks to ensure a thorough and meticulous process, from preparation to the final coats of paint.
During our initial consultation and on-site assessment, our experts will carefully evaluate your home’s unique characteristics, including its size, architectural style, and the condition of the existing surfaces which will enable us to provide you with a more accurate time estimate as part of the quotation process. We aim to balance the need for efficiency with our commitment to delivering exceptional results so you can plan accordingly.
Do you offer a warranty for your painting services?
We understand that painting your property is a significant investment and you want assurance that the quality and durability are protected. We take immense pride in the quality of our work and the expertise of our Prime Building Painters team. As a testament to our commitment to excellence, we offer a 5-Year Workmanship Guarantee, providing you with unparalleled peace of mind and confidence in our services.
This Guarantee ensures that the coating system applied by our skilled painters will not blister, flake, or peel as a result of faulty surface preparation or application for a minimum of five years.
Do I need to prepare my home for the painters?
You can greatly assist our painting team by undertaking a few steps to prepare your house for painting. These include:
- Removing objects such as pictures, mirrors, curtains and wall hangings from the walls
- Moving large items and pieces of furniture to the middle of the room
- Informing us if you have any pets on the property. This will assist us with keeping both your pets protected and contained, as well as plan for the safety of our team.
Please inform our team who will be happy to assist with preparation if you require. However, please note that extra charges may apply if this exceeds the initially stated preparation time.
