Exterior painting: a considered finish, from street to back garden
Walk around every elevation before requesting prices. Distinguish walls, fascia, eaves, gutters, downpipes, verandah posts and exterior doors. Different materials may need different preparation and coatings. A useful quote explains what happens to flaking areas and where repairs must be completed before painting can begin.
What to include in your exterior painting quote
Make the scope specific before comparing prices. Use these details to describe your Launceston project and ask the contractor to confirm each part of the work in writing.
Every elevation
Include the sides and rear of the building as well as the street frontage. Mark surfaces you want retained in their existing finish.
Safe access
Show narrow side passages, raised sections and obstacles. Access equipment and work near neighbouring properties should be discussed at the inspection.
Preparation and repairs
Ask the painter to separate coating preparation from carpentry, leak repairs or other work that needs another trade.

Exterior painting: your questions.
Does an exterior painting quote include timber repairs?
Only if the quote says so. Ask for repairs, replacement materials and painting preparation to be itemised. If damage needs a carpenter or another specialist, establish who arranges that work and when it must be completed.
What affects the quote for exterior painting?
The extent of the work, existing condition, access and agreed finish all need to be assessed. Photograph the home from each side and take closer views of peeling paint, exposed timber and staining. Ask for assumptions and exclusions to be written down so you can compare the same scope.
