How it works

From a Cairns building owner's search
to your phone in minutes.

Requests come from Cairns homeowners and managers who searched for commercial painting work prices, from Bungalow to Smithfield, and leave a suburb, timeline and budget before Sam texts them.

Owner searches Google

A Cairns building owner Googles "commercial painting cost cairns" and lands on our Cairns commercial painting cost guide.

Sam qualifies them

Our SMS bot Sam verifies the job — building type and class, scope, address, timeline. A real building, a real compliance need.

Lead arrives

A verified commercial painting enquiry lands in your texts. Exclusive contractors get them all. Pay-per-lead see & accept.

Connect & win

The contact's name and Cairns phone number. You call, you quote, you win the contract — and the renewal.

Built for Australian contractors

Why Cairns commercial painting contractors choose exclusive.

Every lead pre-screened

Every Cairns lead is SMS-checked for suburb, scope and timing, including whether the job has to fit around the wet season or the cyclone season, so you quote the job that is actually there.

Australian-owned, independent data

Cross-referenced against 90+ Australian pricing sources. Not a US lead aggregator wearing AU branding.

No long-term lock-in

Pay-per-lead has zero commitment. Exclusive is month-to-month with the first one free. Walk anytime.

Stripe-secured payments

Bank-grade security, automated invoicing, 1-tap accept. No chasing payment, no chargebacks.

Run the numbers

Why $500/month + GST exclusive beats per-lead aggregators
for Cairns commercial painters.

Most aggregators (HiPages, ServiceSeeking, Oneflare) charge a monthly fee PLUS per-lead, and send every enquiry to 4–5 contractors racing to call first. Exclusive territory is a flat $500/month + GST, every lead yours alone, first month free.

Commercial painting differs from residential trade work in the way that matters most for lead economics: job value and repeat scope. A specified interior, exterior or protective-coating project runs $70,000-$140,000 — one won job can outweigh a month of small residential leads.

Commercial painting brings both project repaints and genuine recurring revenue - buildings repaint on cycles and many owners and strata committees run ongoing maintenance contracts (offices, strata, facades). Typical Cairns job values are $15,000-$140,000, with maintenance and repaint-cycle work worth $2,000-$30,000 over time. The territory fee is $500/month + GST, and a single project covers it many times over.

That's why we offer first month FREE on exclusive territory. Card details captured securely via Stripe at sign-up — no charge for 30 days. Cancel anytime in the first month and never get billed. After 30 days, $500/month + GST, billed automatically. Walk anytime after with no penalty.

Common questions

Everything you'd want to ask.

When is the busy season for commercial painting work in Cairns?

Outdoor work bunches into the dry months from June to October, when Cairns Aero averages under 50 mm of rain a month, while January to March averages over 400 mm a month (BOM). Indoor and emergency work carries on through the wet.

What drives commercial painting demand in Cairns?

Lease fit-outs and end-of-lease make-goods, tired or weathered exteriors and facades, branding and refurbishment refreshes, new warehouse and factory protective coatings, and strata and maintenance-contract repaint cycles all push owners to repaint. Most start by searching for painting pricing - demand these guides target.

How many commercial painting leads come from Cairns each month?

Volume varies with season and the commercial construction cycle. We share live volume data from your specific area before you commit, so you know what to expect rather than guessing.

What's the difference between pay-per-lead and exclusive?

Pay-per-lead means you see verified leads as they come in and choose which to accept — $50 + GST for your first lead, then $75 + GST each. Multiple contractors in your area receive the same lead. Exclusive territory means YOU are the only contractor we route from your trade and city — every verified lead comes to you, plus you're listed on the cost guide page that ranks on Google for your area.

How is the lead qualified?

When an owner submits an enquiry, our SMS bot Sam asks a few questions: building type, the scope (interior, exterior, warehouse or factory coatings, protective or fire-rated systems, surface prep), access and whether after-hours is needed, the address, and the timeline. Once they confirm by replying YES, we count it as verified and route it to you.

What happens during my free month on exclusive?

Same as a paying month — you get every verified lead in your trade and city, listed on the cost guide page, full access. After 30 days we ask if you want to continue. If yes, $500/month + GST rolling. If no, cancel before day 31 and you'll never be charged.

Can I switch from pay-per-lead to exclusive later?

Yes — many contractors do exactly this. Start with pay-per-lead to test the leads, then upgrade to exclusive once you've proven the volume works for your business. Just let us know.

Can I hold exclusive in multiple trades or cities?

Yes. Each combination is a separate territory at $500/month + GST. You only pay for the territories you hold.
