Common jobs in Carlton
Because Carlton is in Melbourne City, access and timing can matter as much as the headline price. Photos of walls, ceilings, trim or exterior surfaces show whether the job is simple repainting or repair-heavy prep. If the job is urgent, say so first; if it can wait, ask whether a grouped local run changes the price.

Quick answers
How much does it cost to paint a house interior?+
As a rough guide, interior repaints run about $15 to $45 per square metre of floor area, so a standard three-bedroom home often lands between $4,000 and $9,000 depending on ceilings, prep and how many colours. Get the quote itemised across prep, undercoat and topcoats.
How much does exterior house painting cost?+
Exterior painting typically runs $25 to $65 per square metre of surface, so a full single-storey house is commonly $6,000 to $15,000. Double-storey, heavy prep, and render repairs push it higher. The condition of the existing surface is the biggest cost driver.
How long does house painting take?+
A single room is usually a day, a full interior repaint of a three-bedroom home is roughly three to five days, and a full exterior is often one to two weeks including prep and weather delays. Rain stops exterior work, so allow for it in the timeline.
How many coats of paint do I need?+
Most jobs use an undercoat plus two topcoats, which is the standard for an even, durable finish. Strong or dark colours, or painting over a very different colour, often need an extra coat. Ask the painter to quote the number of coats so there are no surprises.
