I’m just a kid trying to make some money. I don’t have my own tools or equipment, but I am willing to do any work for people who have the tools but not the time. I have experience in professional painting, but will do anything you throw my way.

Painting questions, answered by experts

Yes. A gallon of paint covers around 400 square feet, so two gallons will be enough for one coat in a 400-square-foot room or two coats in an 800-square-foot room. However, if you have a very large room or you’re painting an open space or an entire floor of your home, you may need more than two gallons.

In most cases, you’ll need two coats of paint to ensure proper coverage. If you put down a coat of primer first, you could get away with a single coat of paint, but you’ll likely still need two coats. The only exception would be if you’re painting with a light color over a dark color, in which case you may need three or four coats of paint to ensure the dark color doesn’t show through the new paint.

Painting a two-story foyer costs on average between $2 to $6 per square foot, but can increase depending on the amount of detail needed like skylights, windows, trim, and more. For a 300-square-foot foyer, expect to pay between $600 and $1,800 or more.

While paint drying smoothly on a wall is ideal, a can full of dry paint is not. To open a can of dry paint, you’ll need a tool with a sharp edge, such as a utility knife or a box cutter. Take your tool and score the area where the lid meets the can to break through the dried-up paint. Then, use a paint can opener or a flathead screwdriver to pry the lid open and check the state of the contents. For smaller cans with plastic lids, you can run the top under hot water to loosen the lid. 

How long your paint job lasts depends on the quality of the work and the type of paint used. If you clean the siding first, apply a primer if needed, and choose the right type of paint, the finish can last five to 10 years.
