First, I'll say the drywall repairs look very good. And I'll add that I bear some responsibility for signing a contract that didn't include, in writing, everything that was discussed during the estimate. But I'm sure that I explained that the ceilings were painted in shell white (not plain...

They did a great job painting our laundry room.

Parviz and his team mate did a fantastic job of custom painting the interior of my new home. They were dependable, polite, clean, and very good painters. The work was all completed in four days, and I'm very happy with the job they did.

Didn't go well. Painters were sloppy and got paint on my storm door, vinyl window trim, and on the aluminum siding. They also missed a lot of spots on the trim even though they put on two coats of paint. Scratched up my brand new downspouts. The quote also included patching as needed but of...

When I initially contacted this roofer, he came out and gave us an estimate of $3500. At that time, we discussed the type of paint he would use on our metal roof (fibrous paint) and that he would remove all the old loose paint, and the paint would be either rolled or brushed on. My husband...

This company was supposed to paint 1900 square feet of wall space in my new construction home. Initially, they miscalculated the area and tried to short change the amount of space they were required to paint. As a part of the Big Deal they were also required to purchase premium paint, but...

Discovered after 3/4 of painting was done that interior paint was being used instead of exterior. Sloppy work on trim and old loose paint not removed, it was painted over and some areas of trim were missed completely. This was fixed when it was brought to their attention, but overall did not...

"Thomas M was an excellent technician and did great work fixing all the basement windows around the house. These windows are difficult to find a replacement but he was able to repair and repaint them. The other technician was Pablo He worked on caulking all the windows around the house and he did some filling work on the garage sliding doors You did a good job, but Pablo left his trash around and didn’t pick up after himself so Thomas M and I did that on the third day. It took three days total, but it was two men for two days and one man for a 3/4 of a day actually. Although I’ll probably get charged for a full day, since it went past noon. The labor portion is the most expensive and a little higher than I initially anticipated. So, I was hoping for a quicker turnaround, but overall quality work was completed. I would highly recommend Thomas M as a technician to do future work. He’s very knowledgeable, friendly and does a great job. I would hire again but include more details in the contract language."

FAQs for painting projects in Ellicott City, MD
You should paint your home exterior every five to 10 years, on average. Climate and surroundings can affect how well paint holds up. Wood siding will likely need a fresh coat of paint every three to seven years. Paint on brick tends to last about eight to 17 years, on average.
Professional painters charge $20 to $50 per hour, 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, removing wallpaper costs an additional $3 per square foot because it can be very time consuming and labor intensive. Your location will also impact the hour rate.
To estimate the cost to paint interior walls, 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.
To calculate the square footage of a home exterior, painters multiply the length of the wall by the height of the wall to be painted. Then they add the total square footage for all of the walls to be painted. To calculate the price, they multiply the total square footage by their cost per square foot to prep and paint. Additional costs may factor in such as repairs, additional trim, and walls higher than the first story.
The cost to paint the exterior of a house ranges from $1,900 to $4,500 or about $1.50 to $4 per square foot, depending on the size, height, and complexity of the home layout. Other cost factors include your location, the type of siding (e.g., wood, aluminum, brick, stucco, etc.), and the kind of paint (e.g. oil-based, latex, acrylic, etc.). Painting the trim a different color or painting intricately designed trim can also increase the cost.
