OUR JOB IS NOT COMPLETE UNTIL YOU ARE SATISFIED
Advice for Homeowner for your House Painting
1. WHAT TO PAINT?
It is up to you to tell your painter what you want to be done. But they can
help you work out what’s best.
If you have a particular purpose for
which the work is required, or the
the result that you desire the work to
achieve, it’s important that this is
written down in your contract.
For most jobs, painting doesn’t
require any Council approval, but be
careful, especially if you live in an old
or significant place, streets or
footpaths need to be used to paint or
there are electrical wires close by.
Get the right permissions before you
start. Unless you agree otherwise,
your painter is not responsible for
approvals, and getting this aspect
wrong can cause your costs to
increase. (Master Painter Association)

15% ... It is complicated
