How much does it cost to paint an interior of a home?

The cost of painting the interior of a home in Auckland can range from $35 to $55 per square metre dependant on the condition and how much prep work is requried, this cost doesn't include the cost of scaffolding (if required) for high areas.

How do I measure what needs to be painted?

An easy way to calculate the square footage of an average room is to measure the length and the height of the walls and multiply those two numbers together. Here’s a formula: the total length of the walls x the height of the room

Do I need to empty the house prior to the project commencing?

It is ideal for you to move all valuables and fragile items - we would normally move everything on the day of starting to the middle of the room and cover it up - however this is normally discussed with the client and included in the estimate if required.

Things to keep in Mind

Interior House Painting Considerations

DEBRIS AND DIRT ON WALLS/CEILINGS

Do not wash your walls with water

The purpose of plastering the walls and ceiling is to get rid of debris and to even out the surfaces. Your walls and ceilings should not be washed with water prior to painting.

UNDERCOAT

Do you need an undercoat?

An undercoat is needed if your walls are bare as it is meant to protect your walls. If you already have old paint on your walls then an undercoat is not needed. If you do however have a water stain on your walls then you will have to use an oil based undercoat otherwise you can use a water based undercoat.

Skirting Boards

undercoat and paint

Skirting boards need to be treated carefully as they experience the most amount of wear and tear. The under coat and paint applied on skirting boards should be oil based as this will withstand the most amount of wear and tear while lasting longer.

WHAT KIND OF PAINT DO YOU NEED?

Choose the right type of paint

You can either paint your home with water-based, Oil-based or acrylic paints. Water and Acrylic paints last for upto 5 years while Oil based paints last for upto 10 years. Oil based paints are more expensive but they do give you the highest quality finish.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

Check with your painter

If you are using water based or acrylic paint then you can stay in the house while it is getting painted. However if you are using oil based paint for your interiors then you should not be in the home for atleast 7 days after the job is finished.

Winter is the best season for Interiors

Season is important for best results

Contrary to popular belief, summer is not a good time to paint your interiors. This is because the high humidity and strong sunshine can actually be harmful to the process. Winter in fact is the best time to paint your interiors.

It was a pleasure working with Arden and the Superior Paint team on a Parnell renovation. Arden was great at communicating timeframes, budgets and offered some great suggestions through the process. I would highly recommend working with Arden and his team.

The team did a great job painting the exterior of our home. They especially did a good job on sanding the front door to make it nice and smooth again - there were definitely a lot of lumps and bumps to smooth out, and now the door looks brand new again!

Superior painters did a great job from start to finish on my rental property. They delivered what they said they would, and when they would do it..(allowing for the odd lock down). I have no issues using superior painters again or recommending them.

I had a very tight time frame for an entire internal paint, with a deadline. Superior Painters team arrived on time, working extremely hard every day and produced an excellent result. Nothing was too much trouble and all requests were accommodated with no fuss. Michael visited regularly to check on progress and was always up to date with the project. He was accessible and open-minded about my ideas, as well as having wonderful suggestions. I have already told Michael about the next project I have in mind and will be using the SP team once again. Highly recommended.read more

Excellent paint job, the house looked brand new. Communication was a bit difficult at the start, we asked for a quotation for just bedrooms and was provided with a whole house quotation but in the end fantastic job.

It’s no surprise that we are thrilled with Superior Painters for the second time in two years. From first contact about a project through the finished product, everyone through our door has never been anything but professional, clean, friendly, and hard working. It’s one thing to have a project completed nicely, it’s another for the experience to be pleasant from start to finish, with an outstanding outcome. Our new home is absolutely beautiful. Painting was quick yet done to perfection. Painters finished the walls and ceiling flawlessly, cleaned, and helped move furniture back to its original positioning. We have no question about who to go to for future home projects, big or small. Thank you Michael and the team!!!read more

“After getting the quotes, I decided to go with Michael – he immediately grasp the type of problem he was dealing with, with the high ceilings in the property. Michael clearly had an understanding of the issues the team will face in the property and that has given me the confidence to go ahead with the quote he has provided us”

New Builds

Building a new home?

Office & Office Blocks

Improve your office space

Painting the interior of an office is no different from painting an interior of a home. It has to be done by a professional who is skilled, has good knowledge of the types of paints and techniques. With exterior painting, every office building would need a permit as they usually are street facing.

Retail Painting

First impressions count

A well painted and aesthetically pleasing retail shop can attract customers like bees to honey. Of course closing the sale is up to you in the end. However we can help you attract these customers by painting your retail shop to give you a ‘magazine worthy’ result.
