I have been in the residential painting industry for 28 years; I am a 4th generation painter. I opened up my own painting business in the fall of 2011. Myself and my employees take pride in what we do down to the smallest detail. We offer all aspects of interior and exterior painting; we also specialize in cabinet refinishing and faux finishes.
"Neil was very professional and explained the options we had with redoing our cabinetry. He was meticulous with our cabinets and hardware both with removal and installation. They look brand new and match perfectly with the cabinet boxes. Also, in regards to our basement, he brought a paint representative to examine our flooring since it had been sealed before incorrectly by a basement sealing company. He sealed our basement floor and it looks great."

"We had contracted Anthony and team to update our foyer and living space in our recently purchased home. This included creating an opening and adding support in a load bearing wall, demolishing an existing closet, creating a new partition walls and bulkhead, installing new hardwood flooring and baseboards in three rooms. Communication with Anthony throughout the project was a breeze; he is extremely responsive. Once the project started, they were able to complete the work in the time that they promised. They took the necessary precautions to protect the floors and the walls during demolition and left the space neat once the work was done. There was a slight miscommunication regarding the specification of the bulkhead. But Anthony was nice enough to rectify the problem and did not charge me extra for it! I have other work planned in the future and will definitely reach out to A&J Contracting!"

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.
Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

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.
