Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Brad Smith, Home Services Expert · ✓ Data verified August 2026 · 8 min read

Repainting a Singapore flat usually comes down to a choice between a premium branded showroom and a neighborhood shop that's been mixing colours for decades, and the paint stores in Singapore on this page span both ends. Benjamin Moore Paints (Thomson) leads with 807 reviews at 4.9 stars, while Hwa Soon Paints, family-run since 1979, holds a perfect 5.0 across 337, proof that the smaller shops compete on more than just price.

Short answer: Benjamin Moore Paints (Thomson) is the most-reviewed paint store in Singapore at 4.9 stars across 807 reviews, offering full-service painting alongside premium paint. Hwa Soon Paints (5.0, 337 reviews) and Soon Huat Paints (4.8, 69 reviews) are both long-running, family-owned shops known for on-the-spot colour mixing and decades of loyal customers.

Watch: 5 Best Paint Stores in Singapore (2026)

How we score

Every number on this page is computed from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, ranked against other Singapore paint stores. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of reviews carries more weight than the same score from a handful. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does paint cost in Singapore? (2026)

None of the stores on this page publish a single fixed price list, though reviewers on Hwa Soon Paints cite roughly $26 per litre for an all-in-one washable paint as a reference point. Full-service painting cost from a store like Benjamin Moore will run higher once labour is included.

JobTypical price
All-in-one washable paint (per litre, reviewer-cited)Around $26

Figure cited by a customer review at Hwa Soon Paints, verified August 2026, and not an official published price list. Ask each store directly for current pricing, and request a separate quote if you want full-service painting labour included.

Serving all of Singapore

The stores above cover Singapore neighborhoods including Sin Ming, Defu Lane, Banda Street, Sims Avenue and Toa Payoh. Searching for a paint store near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number so you can call ahead and check current stock.

What to ask before you buy paint

  • Can you colour match a specific reference image or existing paint sample?
  • Do you offer full-service painting, or just the paint itself?
  • What’s the price per litre for the finish and brand I need?
  • Do you offer same-day delivery, and is there a minimum order?
  • What preparation, like anti-mold sealant, does my wall need before painting?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these Singapore paint stores?

We started from every paint store in Singapore with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which store offers full-service painting, not just paint?

Benjamin Moore Paints (Thomson) offers a complete service including site survey, colour consultation and professional application, alongside its retail paint sales.

Is there a paint shop that carries multiple major brands?

Aik Guan Paint Dealers specifically carries both Dulux and Nippon Paint under one roof, which reviewers note is uncommon among Singapore paint shops.

The bottom line

Benjamin Moore Paints (Thomson) is the safe default if you want premium paint and professional application handled together. If you’re painting yourself and want the best value, Hwa Soon Paints’ decades-long reputation and perfect rating make it the strongest neighborhood pick.
