Q: What factors impact the cost of interior painting?

• <div><p>Aside from the primer and paint choice, consider other cost factors that can impact the overall price of your interior painting project. For example, the following items are likely to increase the cost of your project:</p><ul><li><p>Moving furniture</p></li><li><p>Accent walls</p></li><li><p>Textured walls</p></li><li><p>High walls</p></li><li><p>Stairways or stairwells</p></li><li><p>Wall repairs</p></li><li><p>Time of year</p></li><li><p>Lead or asbestos testing</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: 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>

Q: Can you paint a whole wall using a brush?

• <div><p>Yes, you can paint an entire wall using just a brush. In fact, it may make the most sense on narrow walls where a roller would be impractical, but be prepared for it to take more time. We still recommend cutting in around corners and trim, then distributing paint around the rest of the wall as evenly and smoothly as possible.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to prep and paint a room?

• <div><p>The time it takes to prep and paint a room depends wholly on the project's details. You can expect to spend at least two days on the job, including one for prepping and priming and one for applying two coats of paint. If the room is complex with many features to work around, expect to spend an additional day. </p></div>

Q: Can you German smear over painted brick?

• <div><p>A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance&mdash;so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.</p></div>

In the course of this year, I have had these guys hang door, repair plaster, tile, paint, wallpaper, and repair a window sill. There is nothing they can’t handle! And now my bedroom is gorgeous.
