1.2k+ We needed to paint 3 bedrooms plus kitchen and living room in my apartment and after some research on the internet I got 3 estimates and decided to go with WOW 1 Day Painting. Crew of 5 painters showed at 8:00 AM as scheduled day and finished the job as promised by 4:00 PM. We are very happy...
Arrival as expected, put down floor protection, repaired minor imperfections before painting. Applied 2 coats of paint. Very professional!
O'Connor's Painting Service IncThe painters did a great job. They were very careful and thorough with both the prep work and painting. They did an excellent job removing the existing wallpaper and prepping the walls before painting. My house looks wonderful. I'm very happy with everyone at Nationwide.
Nationwide HandymanThe painters were late which had me concerned about their ability to finish the job on time. The painters started in the bedrooms upstairs and painted the entire upstairs and downstairs. I have a three bedroom house, and the two painters worked very effectively to paint all three upstairs...
They did not use drop cloths or edge tape so drips of paint were left on the concrete of the front door landing and they also paint stained the brick adjacent to the trim. Too rushed I guess. When I asked him to try to clean the stain, especially the dripped paint in front of the front door,...
The painters arrived on time. I chose the color and 1st Choice provided the paint. They did an excellent job.
We are very pleased with the results of the painting job. Bismarck from Lomar Painting came to estimate, and we scheduled a time for painting a few weeks later. He was very responsive throughout the process, the paint job was delayed due to the weather conditions, but he stayed in touch via...

"The entire team was excellent. They were prompt, hard-working, and clearly took pride in their work. They were responsive to my questions and concerns. I was given clear heads-up about any additional work needed during the project and any additional costs. They were respectful of my plants and surrounding structures. They kept the work area tidy at the end of each day. Victor responded promptly when the original coat on the back porch exterior painting in some areas had pealed. We considered alternatives and paid to have an industrial surface coated on the horizontal decking. We are currently very pleased with this new coating. The re-screening was also very well-done; very pleased with the results. The painting and carpentry work on the front porch looks terrific! The pricing was in the hi-moderate range but well worth it. I will definitely work with Manor Works in the future for interior work this winter and any future exterior work."

"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."

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.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
