What should a painting quote include?

<div><p>When you’re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-things-consider-when-hiring-interior-painter.htm">considering hiring a painter</a>, a quote should include the following items:</p><ul><li><p>Overall price</p></li><li><p>Price for each area (e.g., living room, master bedroom) or item (e.g., trim, doors)</p></li><li><p>Cost of labor</p></li><li><p>Cost of materials</p></li><li><p>Description of prep</p></li><li><p>Description of repairs to be made</p></li><li><p>Description and details of paint application (number of coats, brand and type of paint, etc.)</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Do I need to provide my own paint?

<div><p>You may need to provide your own paint, depending on the agreement you make with the painter. Some painters prefer that you buy the paint and they supply the labor. However, some professional painters get a better price on paint and can pass that savings along to you even after accounting for labor costs.</p></div>

What is the average cost to paint a ceiling?

<div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/paint-ceiling-cost.htm">cost to paint a ceiling</a> ranges from <b>$3 to $8.50 per square foot</b>, which is about $1 to $2.50 more per square foot than the cost to paint the walls. Rooms with high ceilings require working from a ladder or scaffolding and often include trim or detail work, which adds to the final price. </p></div>

How much do painters charge per hour?

<div><p>Professional painters charge <b>$20 to $50 per hour</b>, on average. Hourly rate cost factors include the complexity of the paint job, the type of paint, the height of the walls and ceiling, and the type of prep and repairs needed. For example, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-remove-wallpaper.htm">removing wallpaper costs</a> an additional $3 per square foot because it can be very time consuming and labor intensive. Your location will also impact the hour rate.</p></div>

How do you estimate the cost of painting interior walls?

<div><p>To estimate the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-paint-room.htm">cost to paint interior walls</a>, multiply the square footage by the average price range to paint interior walls, which is $2 to $6 per square foot. For example, a 12-by-12-foot room with 8-foot tall walls is 384 square feet, meaning that the cost to paint the room will range from $768 to $2,304. Painting the ceiling and any trim will add to the overall cost, as will any repairs.</p></div>

Their price was competitive with other paint and gutter companies and the online reviews convinced me to select them for the job.
