I spent 9 hours trying to remove wall paper on one side of the hallway. In desperation, I called David. He said he wished I'd called him sooner. The wallpaper could be painted over and become part of the wall. He came promptly at 8:30 a.m. and started with a primer over partially papered wall....

Cecil Gordon did an excellent job painting my house. He showed up on time and finished in a timely manner. He took care to go over the whole house before painting with a power washer and then caulked and re-nailed as needed. The paint he choose is high quality and it looks remarkable on the...

They were punctual and cleaned the buidling and walls before painting. On the 8plex they caulked areas where needed. They cleaned up the area after they were finished with the paint job. They came when they said they would and finished the job in a timely manner.

Interior painting services FAQs

When you’re considering hiring a painter, a quote should include the following items:

Overall price
Price for each area (e.g., living room, master bedroom) or item (e.g., trim, doors)
Cost of labor
Cost of materials
Description of prep
Description of repairs to be made
Description and details of paint application (number of coats, brand and type of paint, etc.)

You may need to provide your own paint, depending on the agreement you make with the painter. Some painters prefer that you buy the paint and they supply the labor. However, some professional painters get a better price on paint and can pass that savings along to you even after accounting for labor costs.

The average cost to paint a ceiling ranges from $3 to $8.50 per square foot, which is about $1 to $2.50 more per square foot than the cost to paint the walls. Rooms with high ceilings require working from a ladder or scaffolding and often include trim or detail work, which adds to the final price.

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.
