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>

What happens if you don't paint behind the toilet?

• <div><p>While it may seem like a blind spot, if you don’t paint behind the toilet, the previous color <i>will</i> likely be visible once the rest of the bathroom has been repainted, especially if you’ve gone with a significantly different color palette. Additionally, not painting every part of the room at the same time means that you will have an older paint job behind your toilet that could be more susceptible to moisture damage. </p></div>

Q: Can I spray paint my laminate countertops?

• <div><p>You can likely use spray paint or a paint sprayer for your laminate countertops. You should prep the space the same way as if you were painting with a roller or brush, making sure to cover any areas that you want to protect with a drop cloth or plastic sheets.</p></div>

Q: What magnetic paint colors can you get?

• <div><p>Magnetic paint is only available in dark gray or black because of the iron dust particles mixed through it. If your heart is set on a less-gloomy shade, add a top coat or two of other latex or chalkboard paint. But adding more than two top coats will degrade the magnetic properties. Dark top coats work better than light shades, as the black or gray magnetic paint is less likely to peek through.</p></div>

Q: Should white walls and trim be the same color?

• <div><p>They don&rsquo;t have to be, but painting trim white when you have white walls can have many benefits. Often, the pairing makes rooms look larger and adds a ton of visual drama. It can also provide more of a blank slate to allow any of your wall decor to really stand out. However, there&rsquo;s no &ldquo;right&rdquo; color choice for trim on white walls.</p></div>

He's very professional to deal with and can do any kind of painting I can think of. We were more than satisfied with what he did to the interior of our house. If we had wooden siding instead of vinyl, I'd have hired him to paint that as well. Any paint projects come up in the future...

He said this project would take two weeks. Ten months in, it still isn't completed. I was without a sink, stove, oven or kitchen cabinets for six months. Whole weeks have gone by with nobody showing up, and most of the work that has been done is shoddy and rife with "beginner" mistakes. Tools of...
