Frequently asked questions 👇
Expect roughly R50 – R90 per square metre for labour only, or R100 – R250 per square metre including paint and materials, and a call-out/quote fee of about R350 – R652 sometimes charged on small jobs. Heavy prep, dark-to-light colour changes, textured surfaces, and work at height all push a quote toward the higher end.
Yes, salt air, UV, and driving winter rain break down standard coatings faster, so coastal homes should use higher-spec exterior paints and expect a shorter repaint cycle than inland. Bathrooms and south-facing rooms also benefit from mould-resistant paint. Spending more per litre on the right product is cheaper than repainting two years early.
A pro typically paints a standard room in 4–8 hours including prep, a full interior in 3–7 days, and an exterior in 4–10 days depending on size, surface condition, and weather. Drying time between coats is part of the job, not padding, so be wary of quotes promising half the time of everyone else.
