on average what does painting a house cost
What is the Average Cost of Painting a House?* As a very rough guide, house painting professionals estimate the cost of painting a house at: $12-$25 per square metre for timber that is in good condition. $18-$30 per square metre for timber that is in poor condition. $12-$16 per square metre for brick. How can you tell which end of the scale your house painting job will be on? You can get some idea just by imagining what you'll be facing if you decide to do the job yourself: Is your house on a level block? If so, the job will be easier for the painters, so will probably cost less. Are there plants and other obstructions in the way? If the answer is yes, the cost will probably be a little higher.
