Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

Since you’ll be going back over an oil-based paint (stain or varnish), you need the proper material for good adhesion. Using an oil primer is critical to ensuring that the longevity of your work stands the test of time. You can apply any type of paint (oil or latex paint) on top of an oil primer after it has cured.

Powder coating can be less expensive than traditional spray painting. If you’re doing it yourself, upfront costs can be hundreds or even thousands of dollars higher than hiring a pro. But if you plan to powder coat many items and use the oven and gun often, the upfront cost may be worth it.

Yes, painting textured walls is harder than painting standard walls. All the uneven textures make it challenging to get adequate coverage and can leave you with small, bare sections if you’re not meticulous with your painting technique. Textured walls also often require a third paint coat to ensure total coverage, increasing the project time and cost.

When comparing limewash versus paint, the cost to limewash interior walls is greater, especially when hiring a pro. That’s because limewashing is more labor-intensive and takes more time to complete. While limewashing costs between $1.50 and $6 per square foot, a standard paint job will cost between $1.50 and $4 per square foot.

You can calculate a painting charge by starting with the square footage of the area you painted. If you painted one room that’s 11x32 feet (132 square feet), charging $5 per square foot would get you $660 in labor costs (132x5). You may also choose to charge extra for intricate work (such as baseboards or crown molding) or painting jobs done in complex locations. Then, you’ll need to charge for the materials used, including primer and paint, and tools like brushes, drop cloths, and ladders.
