About exterior painting
Exterior painting protects the building as much as it looks good, so surface prep, pressure washing and the right primer matter more than the paint brand. Weatherboard, render, fibro and brick each need a different system. Get the quote itemised across prep, primer and topcoats, and ask about the paint warranty.
Getting quotes in Lockwood South
A good painter will quote exterior painting clearly: labour, materials and callout itemised, licence details offered without prompting, and a realistic timeframe for Lockwood South. If a quote is dramatically below the others, ask what it leaves out. There is usually an answer.
Local knowledge counts
Lockwood South sits in the Campaspe area. Mention the suburb when you enquire and ask the provider to confirm travel, availability and any callout component before you agree to work.
Quick answers
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.
Should I choose the cheapest painting quote?+
Not automatically. The cheapest quote often skimps on preparation, which is where a paint job lives or dies. Compare what each quote includes for washing, filling, sanding and number of coats, and check the painter carries public liability insurance.
Do painters supply the paint?+
Most painters supply the paint and build it into the quote, which is usually cheaper because they buy at trade prices. Some will apply paint you have bought, but then the finish and coverage are your risk. Confirm the brand and product line so you know the quality level.
