Hiring a Painter in Wollongong

Before hiring any painter in Wollongong, use this checklist to protect yourself and ensure you're working with a properly licensed and insured professional.

  1. Verify their NSW Fair Trading licence is current — Search the tradesperson's name or licence number on TradieVerify or the NSW Fair Trading register. Confirm the licence class covers your project type and check for any conditions or disciplinary history.
  2. Check for current insurance — Ask for proof of public liability insurance (minimum $5 million recommended) and workers compensation insurance if they have employees.
  3. Get a written quote — Ensure the quote details the scope of work, materials, labour costs, and any potential additional charges. Verbal quotes are not sufficient for larger jobs.
  4. Ask about warranties — Reputable painters offer a warranty on their workmanship (typically 12 months). All materials should come with manufacturer warranties.
  5. Confirm compliance certificates — For any regulated work, your painter must issue a Certificate of Compliance to the relevant authority upon completion.
Pro Tip

Get at least three quotes and compare not just price, but response time, warranty on workmanship, and whether the quote includes parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I verify a painter's licence in NSW?

You can verify any painter's licence using TradieVerify's free search tool or directly through the NSW Fair Trading register. Enter the painter's name or licence number to confirm their licence status, class, and any disciplinary history.

What should a painter's licence number look like in NSW?

NSW painter licence numbers are typically 5-8 digit numbers issued by NSW Fair Trading. The number should appear on all official documentation, quotes, and advertising materials. If a painter cannot provide their licence number, this is a red flag.

Hiring an unlicensed painter puts you at significant risk.
