How much do painters charge?
Generally when I bid on room I take these things into
consideration:
size of room
condition of walls (holes, nails coming through, cracks,
mold)
color to be painted (dark colors require base coats)
is there a drastic change to color (may require base coat)
how many coats of paint (how much do I need to buy?)
trim work or areas that have a lot of masking off and are they
being painted
how tall is ceiling (taller than 10 feet-cost goes up)
is ceiling being painted
will walls be unobscured of speakers, lighting, wall mounted
electronics (masking or taping off)
after all that is said and done:
it can range from $1.25-$3/per square foot
