Frequently asked questions 👇
Most painting work is priced per m² or per room as a guide. Interior walls typically cost about R40 – R75 per m² in labour, or around R1,450 base per standard room, with ceilings at roughly R45 – R80 per m². Exterior residential walls usually start from about R750 for an assessment and scale at around R50 – R95 per m², while boundary walls run roughly R40 – R65 per linear metre and doors or windows about R750 for the first unit, then around R450 each. Paint is quoted separately. These are estimates, and surface prep, coats and paint quality drive most of the difference between quotes.
Painting is the finishing move in each phase: repairs and skimming first, then priming new or patched plaster, then colour. Doing prep and paint per room keeps each phase affordable and visibly complete before the next starts. Agree the colour scheme upfront so the house comes together as one look, room by room.
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.

Painter reviews in Johannesburg area
I have known Elymas for over 10years now. He has been painting my properties and he is very good. He is also reliable ,understanding and if for instance I want him to redo some area he would rectify it without complaining. He has good workmanship and he works with his two sons and they are hardworkers. His charges are very low and I told him he must stop undercharging himself espcially when you compare with the quality of his work. I highly recommend him
