Local things worth knowing
- Brisbane sun and humidity are hard on exterior paint — north and west elevations usually fade first.
- Pre-1970 homes may contain lead paint and asbestos sheeting; ask how the painter handles preparation on older stock.
- Avoid exterior work through heavy summer storms; late autumn and winter give the most reliable drying conditions.

Painters in Darwin: common questions
How long does a repaint take?
A three-bedroom interior often runs several days; a full exterior repaint with proper prep typically takes one to two weeks depending on weather.
How many coats should I expect?
Two topcoats over an appropriate primer is the standard. The quote should say so explicitly.
Is a warranty normal?
Many painters offer a workmanship warranty on top of the paint manufacturer's warranty. Get the terms in writing.
