Q: What is the average cost to paint a ceiling?

<div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/paint-ceiling-cost.htm">cost to paint a ceiling</a> ranges from <b>$3 to $8.50 per square foot</b>, which is about $1 to $2.50 more per square foot than the cost to paint the walls.

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>

I had peeling paint issues in part of the basement from trying to do it myself and it was a mess. RJ came in and had to remove the peeling paint and cover a wall that was previously painted a dark grey with white paint. It looks wonderful.

Excellent work. Very detailed, even cleaned the ceiling fans before putting them back after painting the ceilings. Went above and beyond cleaning up and making sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend and would hire Conrad and his team again.
