As a rough Wollongong guide for 2026: a single room often runs $400–$900, a home interior $3,000–$10,000+, and a full exterior $4,000–$15,000+ depending on size, height and condition. These are general ranges, not a quote — you'll get a fixed price after an on-site look.
What drives the price
- Size and number of coats
- Surface prep — patching, sanding, filling, undercoating
- Height and access (two-storey, difficult eaves)
- Paint quality and finish
- Repairs to render, timber or fibro before painting
Why prep matters most
The difference between a job that lasts and one that peels in two years is prep. A cheap quote that skips proper prep costs more in the long run. Ask what surface preparation is included before comparing prices.
