Please bear mind that these figures are approximations based on DATA collected from interior painters across the country. The size and scale of your project, including the specific company you choose to roll with will have an effect on the overall costs involved.

In any case, what do commercial painters cost? Well, commercial painting services are priced between $45 and $60 AUD / hour on average. Again, there are several factors that effect a painters’ hourly rates, so be mindful of that.

High-end commercial painters may be on the costlier side, but it is always worth considering premium quality when it comes to the presentation of your business.

What are the costs of commercial painting across Australia?

  • Painters in Victoria charge the lowest prices when it comes to commercial painting, averaging $37.5/hr across the state.
  • Queensland and Western Australian commercial painters on the other hand are a bit higher at $40/hr.
  • Commercial painters in new South Wales tend to be on the more expensive end of the spectrum with an average of $45/hr.

Commercial painting price per square metre

What is the commercial painting price per square metre? Again, this varies. Most commercial painters will charge per the hour as mentioned above, to finding an accurate estimation on cost per square metre is much easier said than done.

Going off the averages for professional Australian interior painters, you could be looking at between $10-$30 per square metre. This price typically includes a single undercoat and two finishing coats.

If the job itself requires a minimum in prep/trim work, and you only need one colour throughout, then the cost per square metre will certainly be on the lower end of the spectrum. In contrast, higher ceilings, using multiple colours, and extensive prep work are going to bump those numbers up.

 

Commercial painting price per square foot

What is the commercial painting price per square foot? The easiest way to figure this out is by looking at how many square feet there are in a square metre:

1 SQM = 10.7639 SQF

Formula: Divide the area value by 10.764

Thus, going off the average costs for painting per square metre, you are looking at between $1 and $3 AUD per square foot.

 

Painting cost of a commercial building’s interior

What is the painting cost of a commercial building’s interior? Again, going off the average costs for commercial painters you are looking at between $45 and $60 AUD an hour. As mentioned above, there are many factors that can influence the overall cost and that is typically the complexity of the job.

If your commercial property requires a lot of prep work, has high ceilings, and you want multiple colours throughout the interior of your property, then the rates will be higher to reflect the complexity of the job.

 

Cost to paint exterior of a commercial building

What is the cost to paint exterior of a commercial building? The exterior of a building is likely to come in at a higher cost than the interior. This is largely because the work is more dangerous and will require working at great heights. So, if the average cost per hour for a commercial painter is between $45 and $60 an hour, then you can expect an exterior paint job to be closer to the $60 mark (if not higher).

The benefits of repainting your commercial property

There’s nothing quite like a fresh coat of paint to freshen up your place of work. Something as simple as a new wall colour can be just the ticket to boost employee productivity. It’s all about finding the right colour tones that evoke the appropriate feelings. You see, research demonstrates that the colour type and its intensity can have a negative or positive affect on a person’s overall productivity, to be mindful of that when going forward.

In addition to that, changing the colour of your shop’s walls can have a huge impact on your customers’ perception of your brand and business. A simple lick of paint can turn a rather boring and uninspired shop into a buzzing and lively establishment that is designed to attract the perfect patrons.

It is also worth considering the fact that having commercial painting work done during business hours will be a huge distraction to you, your employees, and your customers. Thus, it is worth speaking with your prospective decorating company prior to making a final decision, just in case they are available to work after hours or over the weekends. That way, you can renovate your space without losing any business!

Conclusion

To conclude, you are looking at between $45 and $60/hour for a commercial painter (or $10-$30 per square metre). These prices are estimations and may not accurately reflect the current market price. Every company is different and there are many other factors that can influence the overall cost of your renovation project.

Your best bet it to contact as many reputable decorating companies as possible, such as Platinum 3 Painting, in order to get accurate quotations for your reference. Do a little shopping around, ask the right questions, and you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding the perfect company to assist you with your commercial renovation project.

Good luck!
