What is Apartment Painting?

  • Painting the walls inside your apartment — bedrooms, lounge, kitchen, bathroom
  • Apartment painting is different from house painting — it needs to be done quietly and neatly
  • You have neighbors on all sides — noise, smell, and mess all matter more
  • Spaces are smaller and more compact — painters need to work carefully
  • Fresh paint makes a small apartment feel bigger, brighter, and much cleaner
  • A good apartment paint job can be done in 1-3 days

Why Use a Professional?

  • Apartments have less space — it's easy to get paint on carpets, skirting boards, and fittings
  • Professionals protect your floors and furniture properly — no drips, no damage
  • Apartment buildings often have rules — professionals know what's allowed
  • Good painters are quiet and considerate — they won't upset your neighbors
  • They get the job done quickly — usually in 1-3 days for a standard apartment
  • Apartments often have moisture issues — professionals use the right primer to stop mold coming back

Renters vs Owners

  • If you rent: Check your lease first — some landlords require approval before painting
  • If you rent: Your landlord may actually cover the cost if the paint is old or damaged
  • If you own: Painting before selling can increase your sale price significantly
  • If you own: If you rent it out, fresh paint attracts better tenants and allows for higher rent
  • Body corporate rules may restrict colors — a good painter will help you navigate this
  • Either way, fresh paint is one of the cheapest upgrades you can make

What Does It Cost?

  • Studio or single room: R4,000 - R8,000
  • 1-bedroom apartment: R8,000 - R15,000
  • 2-bedroom apartment: R12,000 - R25,000
  • 3-bedroom apartment: R18,000 - R35,000
  • Feature walls or accent colors add R2,000 - R5,000
  • Damp or mold treatment adds to the cost — but is essential to do properly
  • Get 5 quotes — prices can vary a lot even in the same building

Why Get 5 Quotes?

  • Quotes for the same apartment can vary by R5,000 - R10,000
  • Some painters are noisy and messy — others are professional and considerate
  • Some take a week for a 2-bed apartment — others do it in 2 days
  • Not all painters know apartment building rules and body corporate requirements
  • 5 quotes lets you find the right person — not just the cheapest
  • In shared buildings, a professional painter is not optional — it's necessary

How to Compare Quotes

  • Ask what hours they'll work — early mornings or weekends can upset neighbors
  • Ask how they'll protect your furniture and floors — professional painters always have drop cloths
  • Ask how long it will take — and if they'll stick to that timeline
  • Ask if they've worked in your building or complex before
  • Ask about cleanup — the space should be clean and tidy when they leave
  • Make sure the quote is in writing and includes all rooms you want painted
