Top Interior Painting related questions

In Australia, factors like the Tasker’s labour fee, your location, house type, paint type, room size, and customisation requests influence the cost. The usual range is $150 to $350 for bathrooms, $300 to $1,000 for kitchens, $300 to $1,500 for bedrooms, $300 to $1,000 for dining rooms, and $900 to $2,000 for living rooms.

The frequency depends on your preference. In general, interior walls and surfaces should be repainted every three to five years, as this is when normal wear and tear usually start. However, you have the liberty to repaint your walls and surfaces much sooner if your goal is to remodel or switch up your home’s design. 

Yes! If you already have chosen paints available and need someone to apply to your walls and other surfaces, then that’s no problem. Just make sure to give your Tasker a heads up about this, so they’ll only bring the necessary tools and supplies. The work can start as soon as they arrive at your place.

The process of picking a paint colour starts with lighting. A dim room can appear bigger, brighter, and more spacious when painted with a light colour. Meanwhile, larger spaces can feel more comfortable and intimate using a darker shade of paint. Don’t forget that selecting the right paint colours also involves your style as well as the mood or ambience you want to evoke in your home.

More expensive paint is of higher quality than budget-friendly alternatives. It means they have more even coverage and require fewer coats when applied. While some would prefer to cut costs and go for cheaper paint, this can result in a colour that’s less intense or a bit further from the exact tone on the paint switch. It’s best to invest in high-quality as they genuinely make the difference between a new stylish room and poorly repainted one.

It all boils down to the scope of work to be completed. If the painting assignment involves only a few walls or one room, it might only take a few hours. However, if you need to paint multiple rooms or your entire house, then expect the painting job to finish within a day or more. 

Generally, it’s best to wait at least two weeks after the painting work before washing your walls. It gives enough time to cure and helps you achieve the best results without the risk of colour transfer or fading. When washing newly painted walls, make sure to use a soft cloth with mild soap and apply with gentle pressure.

What do interior painting services include?

Having interiors painted is a quick and effective way to energise your home. Just book a Tasker, may it be for replacing your dining room paint colours or adding life to your kitchen walls.


Check out this list before booking a service:


Living room painting

Nothing beats the warmth of a living room. The family gathers for a catch-up session, post-work relaxation, or even bigger celebrations. So keeping it homey is a must—and it starts with colours.


Feeling unsure about the palette? Your hired expert can help you pick colours that showcase your style and match your furniture. They will let you skip doing the complex process so you can go straight to lounging with your loved ones.


Kitchen painting

The kitchen is often busy, so some may see visual aesthetics a non-necessity. But tweaking it, especially through painting, can offer long term effects.


If unpleasant odour, stains, and grease are your current villains—and cleaning and scrubbing won’t cut it—a fresh coat of paint might be the key to getting rid of these elements, bringing your kitchen back to its tip-top condition.


Trust a Tasker to get you through the process, from moving your appliances to doing the necessary preparations pre-painting. If you’re unsatisfied with this tweak, you can proceed to finding someone transform your kitchen.


Hallway and stairway painting

These areas aren’t for idle time, but that doesn’t mean they’re any less purposeful than the actual rooms. Keeping them well taken care of is a necessity, especially as they help people with movement. To freshen up every part of your home, you can book a specialist on Airtasker.


Whether you want your walls to be bathed in classic neutrals (especially for minimalist spaces) or more emotionally-charged hues, the Tasker can help you choose a scheme that will match with your taste. They can also paint with the goal of removing stains, marks, and other wear and tear. 


Dining room painting

A meal becomes more enjoyable if you’re in a comfortable place. Imagine having lunch in a dreary-looking room? 


Good thing is you can change your dining room paint colours easily by booking someone skilled on Airtasker. Thinking of making the space more sophisticated? How about adjusting it according to your desired lighting? With the right palette, you can boost your next family dinner experience, that overstaying won’t be in the vocabulary.


Basement painting

The basement is often seen as mere extra space. However, you can amplify its function and mood depending on the colours. A secret home cinema can be created with a dark red basement floor paint, or you can have an underground library using earthy shades. If you want it more flexible and clear, though, white and grey are usual go-tos. It’s best to ask your Tasker for recommendations.


If you’re planning to go all the way, you can also hire an interior designer, a builder for home extensions, or connect with a pool of home cleaners.
